The Spring Classics - 2016

[Gen]

Oh, what a race!!

 

????????????????????????

Besides that Katusha rider.. that is like a dream group..

[Gen]

And we get treated to an Etixx team time trial

['Dale]

Ettix not in the first selection

That'll create a chase

 

20 secs gained

28 kms to go

 

GVa abs company faded and retired to the main bunch

Lactate seeping from their eyeballs ????

[Gen]

All I need to make my dream break away complete was if Tony Martin was riding and in that lead group..

['Dale]

34 secs by the leaders

 

23 kms to go

 

GO SAGS

Kuznetsov sitting on tip of saddle taking short pulls. The watts these four are putting out could power a small town

[HappyMartin]

Go Sagan!!!!!

['Dale]

I guess the Katusha rider is fried

 

One rider more desperate than Sags for glory would be Sep.

['Dale]

Just under 20

 

And the head of the race has amassed 40 secs

[HappyMartin]

This is seriously brutal.

[HappyMartin]

They might need to do something about this Katusha guy. He is being towed along and is doing nothing in front. Perhaps he is cooked but if not he could be an issue.

['Dale]

Boonen and Co working for sprinter Gav'

 

This is a sprinter's finalè

 

And the winner will match his strength and timing best with reading the windy conditions

[Gen]

I guess the Katusha rider is fried

 

One rider more desperate than Sags for glory would be Sep.

Too true.. hey.. I would be happy if he did get the win.

['Dale]

What a well scripted attack up the Kemmelberg

Again, Sags was the main attacker

 

Let's see whether he........

['Dale]

 

Etixx are still chasing for Gaviria and have dropped several riders from their group. but they are struggling to reduce the gap to the four leaders.

['Dale]

One of the leading four will miss the podium

 

Unlikely that they'll get caught

 

GO SAGS
