Shebeen Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 They rushed to WT status too soon and have been hanging on ever since.. they really don't justify their WT status spot.

Sent from my SM-G950F using TapatalkJaaaa Take nothing away from Bob, a great effort indeed. However I suspect some insider trading involved here as well... no one at that level should be able to ride away from the peloton for that distance ( over 27 km) Unless they agreed to give him the winIt’s Belgium and road racing after all ☝️

QS slotted in right behind those 2 to prevent other teams coming to the front in numbers Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk Edited March 4, 2019 by Gen Barend de Arend 1
WW87 Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 Sorry for hijacking the tread, but hoping there might be some help around. My wife and I have booked a bus trip for Paris-Roubaix, starting in Belgium and following the race along the cobbled sectors. Has anyone done something like this before and have any tips about the day and night itself? Quite excited to see the race live Long Wheel Base and gummibear 2

People were getting dropped out of the peloton chasing Jungle Bob. Bora and Jumbo guys did their work, and then dropped off. If they were chasing slowly you wouldn't see that. Peloton was down to 32 riders. 69 riders finished. dsw and Gen 2

Thorn199 Posted March 4, 2019 Posted March 4, 2019 Former world champ Chantal Blaak steams away shortly after the Muur and just before the Bosberg taking a solo win. Lots of debate around social media as the women's race had to be neutralised because the men's race was going slower than expected. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2019/mar/03/belgian-cycling-nicole-hanselmann
