'Dale Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 Wow! The thousands of fans at the side of the roads, the flowing Belgian beer and the party atmosphere speak for themselves, but if further indication was needed as to the importance here of De Ronde, Belgian vice prime minister Kris Peeters is on a race motorbike today working as an ardoisier. Love it.
'Dale Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 The peloton are making their way through Dentergem in West Flanders. A group including Kenny Dehaes and Gatis Smukulis forged clear with around 10 seconds but have been brought back.
Gen Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 In slightly uglier news, British newspaper the Sunday Times ran another doping investigation story today, in which a doctor is alleged to have doped 150 professional sportspeople, including British Tour de France riders. Any implications for the Skyborgs? ????Or British cycling? ***Mmmm yes I saw this and bit earlier.. have you watched that undercover video with that Dr yet?

HappyMartin Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 Jeez these roads. Always shocks me how bad they are and how much road furniture there is. The Hub would explode with outrage if a local race sent us on a route like this. I have done mtb races with better surfaces.
Gen Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 DEMARE down..and also Renshaw. . And a couple others. Demare lost a lot for lycra with that fall.

Vetseun Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 Thanks for all the commentary. Now I can watch the Kardashians and keep up with the cycling at the same time.

Gen Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 Oh man.. huge crash.. Benoot down and I don't think he will get back up
tombeej Posted April 3, 2016 Posted April 3, 2016 Very disappointing that my boy is out. Had high hopes for him today.
