Cav' Posted April 2, 2018 Share http://www.steephill.tv/2018/tour-of-flanders/photos/page-02/600-BBH_3576.jpgPeter Sagan: "It was a very hard and fast Tour of Flanders, right from the outset, with Quick-Step, Sky and BMC setting a strong pace. I'm happy with my performance as well as that of the rest of my teammates, who were there, together with me, whenever it was possible. I gave my best effort to close the gaps, but on my own it was impossible. I'm happy with my condition and I now look forward to Paris-Roubaix, a week from now."

Cav' Posted April 2, 2018 Share We have Scheldeprijs before Paris-Roubaix next weekend. Will most likely be a Kittel vs Groenewegen battle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cav' Posted April 2, 2018 Share I guess Gav' is still out with broken wristAnd Cav's spare ribs will stay off the cobblesYeah that's pretty accurate. I see Viviani is giving it a miss too.Demare is there too, but he wont beat Kittel and Groenewegen in a sprint. Also DDD is taking 5 Saffas to the race.

kosmonooit Posted April 3, 2018 Share What does PS expect ... others to help him chase and then get beaten by him in the sprint? Also knowing that others will sit on his wheel and then jump him at the last moment - ie MS last year. Only thing he can do is break free and gap it like Spartacus used to do, although he generally had the same problem. Patchelicious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patchelicious Posted April 3, 2018 Share I think that is easier said than done, ..the field is very even.. more so than during the Fabulous-BoonenYou are right, it’s far easier to rather just moan about it Edited April 3, 2018 by Patchelicious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gen Posted April 3, 2018 Share You are right, it’s far easier to rather just moan about itMoaning won't help..no they made tactical errors on Sunday..and as good as what Bora were at Ghent, that is how wrong they got it on Sunday.. not the only team to get it wrong.

'Dale Posted April 3, 2018 Share Hoping BMC and Astana will come into play at the Hell of the NorthAnd DeMare’s posse could feature too as they’d want a Frenchie to the top step The less race focus on Sagz Baby the better Gen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kosmonooit Posted April 3, 2018 Share Maybe PS needs to be more foxy ah la Alesandro? Or beef up their team as suggested so he has more comrades towards the end, although his style is more maverick. Gen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kosmonooit Posted April 3, 2018 Share But they are never there towards the end, compare to Quik Step who generally have a few guys up front at the end ... and options. Patchelicious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QS are a bunch of freaks[emoji23][emoji23].. ..they have a really strong team and that is why it is so hard to beat them..Sagan needs 2 riders at critical stages on sunday..preferably with 1 up the road...????

And there in lies Bora's problem. And I haven't seen that Bodnar's been racing either. Basically having a rider in the break is a good idea but I don't know if they have a diesel with a big enough engine for that to work.
