paul_ct Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 What a shame. It will be interesting to see them make up the time over the remaining stages.
Dicky DQ Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Sad that they got 1hr + 13 odd minutes. Felt the penalty was a bit harsh. But Consistent I think. I recall Burry and Suzi getting also getting a hour penalty. So it seems that is the default. But they should still end up on the podium.
Jorrie Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 Shame feeling for them, that will test their mental strength! They're in a different league than the other woman, I recon 3stages at most and they're in the lead again! Akon and CleatsnCleavage 2
udxcob Posted March 17, 2015 Posted March 17, 2015 They are now going to ride like they are possessed
Mackie Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 This is a shame, but in their form, my money would be on them to still take the win, no doubt they will ride the stuffing out of the field today. Akon 1
Rudi Pollard Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Today is a nice long stage. They are going to take back the majority of the time if not all of it by today... Those girls are pure class. Last year they also had to ride back a time loss of 40+ minutes after a mechanical and they won the race in the end with about 40 minutes
canfan Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 This is going to be awesome watching how they claw their way back. They are so strong they can still win. Jaco-fiets and CleatsnCleavage 2
Dicky DQ Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 RECM can't complain, I recon the marketing value of this little mishap is quite significant, but I still feel for them.
Cejay Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) Even with the penalty they are "only" 27 minutes behind Ascendis,my money would be on them to be in Orange by the end of the day. Edited March 18, 2015 by Cejay
Thomo Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 (edited) Their Epic could've have ended a lot worse with Ariane crashing.Lots of opportunity to make up that time. Edited March 18, 2015 by Thomo
Mackie Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Arianne & Annika have already put 10 minutes into the field at Water Point 1, they may even be back in the lead today. It is incredible how these 2 can ride!
