Gen Posted March 20, 2021 Posted March 20, 2021 And hey, Wout outsprinted MvdP, soos I'm happy there So did Sagan [emoji12] Vetplant 1
kosmonooit Posted March 20, 2021 Posted March 20, 2021 Great to see Tom ripping it down the Poggio and leading from the front - his time till come. Awesome performance given that he is all new to this and still only 21! Also had some knee issue since Strade. I see he is down for all the MTB XCO Wordl Cups leading up the Olympics, which he plans to do (on MTB it seems)
'Dale Posted March 21, 2021 Author Posted March 21, 2021 Ek verstaan nieWho was Ineos’ protected rider or what was their tactical thinking beyond Ganna leading the train up Poggio ????
Chris_ Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 Ek verstaan nieWho was Ineos’ protected rider or what was their tactical thinking beyond Ganna leading the train up Poggio ????Secretly, it was Caleb. ???? It was hilarious seeing the him sitting behind Ganna and van Barle. It would have been like drafting behind a bus. No wonder he had so much left in the tank Gen and Underachiever 2
Eldron Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 Man that was awesome. Styven looked dead and buried before Søren went across. Talk about clutching victory from the claws of defeat! The classic season has been spectacular so far. Bring on Paris Roubaix! kosmonooit 1
Gen Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 Ek verstaan nieWho was Ineos’ protected rider or what was their tactical thinking beyond Ganna leading the train up Poggio [emoji40]Apparently Ganna (from his Insta account) came down with the flu before the race. That probably forced a few tactical changes and they kinda just decided to wing it.. the young one would've learnt a lot.. The classics are a different beast altogether hey.
kosmonooit Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) Ek verstaan nieWho was Ineos’ protected rider or what was their tactical thinking beyond Ganna leading the train up Poggio I think they were playing two cards: Kwaito (based on past victory) and the lad from Yorkshire, it was also about giving him (Tom) experience in this race, he was up there at the end which is amazing. but that last bit after the Poggio is always tricky. All the favs wasted too much time trying to shake each other off their respective wheels there, and Jasper got away. If two or three had an alliance they could have gone together, would that happen though? Ganna pulled like that because .... he can Edited March 21, 2021 by kosmonooit Vetplant, 'Dale and dsw 3
kosmonooit Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 That'll warm me up. IMG_4090.jpgTalk about snelheid! Vetplant 1

The classic season has been spectacular so far. Bring on Paris Roubaix!If PR is going to happen what with another sort of lock down in the north of France. I am really looking forward to the 1st women's race. Eldron and Vetplant 2
Frosty Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 The classic season has been spectacular so far. Bring on Paris Roubaix!but first De Ronde, before PR. Gen and Vetplant 2
Gen Posted March 21, 2021 Posted March 21, 2021 (edited) If PR is going to happen what with another sort of lock down in the north of France. I am really looking forward to the 1st women's race.It's quite a strict LD and will be for 4 weeks. But I think the race will go ahead with the usual NO spectators allowed. And with no laps and finishing in the velodrome the route it is easier to police too.. We should be worried about RVV though that's very difficult to control so besides for the obvious reasons let's hope things in Belgium don't reach that point. Edited March 21, 2021 by Gen Vetplant 1
