Vetplant Posted March 28, 2021 Share Good team riding hey. That pace was really high.. They learnt d from Friday.. You need numbers.Let's hope they give him someone strong to chaperone him in the upcoming Big Races! With a bit of support this year I can see him taking Flanders and Roubaix... whenever that takes place... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gen Posted March 28, 2021 Share I wanted her to win today. Always gives a hundred percent effort to the team's cause. Gutted that she didn't win but a brilliant performance from her nonetheless.Yeah I really like watching her race. There are no half measures with her. And even when they were caught she still tried to carry on sprinting.. Heart of a lion Mntboy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted March 28, 2021 Share Just finished watching the ladies race now; thank goodness for GCN’s on demand service. A different type of excitement, compared to the men’s race. Had to feel for the two off the front. Gen, kosmonooit and Rowl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kosmonooit Posted March 28, 2021 Share And how happy are we Viviani got a win.Yes, great to see that. But did you see how bad boy Bohanni behaved in that final sprint? pushing someone in the barriers - this guy needs to get booted, Edited March 28, 2021 by kosmonooit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gen Posted March 28, 2021 Share Yes, great to see that. But did you see how bad boy Bohanni behaved in that final sprint? pushing someone in the barriers with a head butt - this guy needs to get booted out the peloton. https://twitter.com/i/status/1376196963893305350Terrible.. I don't know when enough is enough with that one... And he gave him a shove on the other side of the road already. The youngsters did really well to stay upright.... I still don't know how..

Jewbacca Posted March 29, 2021 Share BOOOhanni is disgraceful. It is astounding that teams still feel his character is worth the risk. Having him on the roster is like driving with worn tires. It's not an 'accident' when something does inevitably happen, it's negligent Long Wheel Base, kosmonooit and Gen 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNT1 Posted March 29, 2021 Share Which is the better result? The INEOS shut out at Catalunya or Jumbo taking the mens and womens races in Belgium? Both have got to be pretty historic events? peetwindhoek 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lechatnoir Posted March 29, 2021 Share Meanwhile Aye that one doesn't learn. https://twitter.com/cyclingreporter/status/1376185600567566336?s=19 what the actual...??? but what skill from Stewart for staying upright!!

Frosty Posted March 29, 2021 Share Which is the better result? The INEOS shut out at Catalunya or Jumbo taking the mens and womens races in Belgium? Both have got to be pretty historic events?Depends if one enjoys Test match cricket or ODI formats. Both are cool, but for me the ODI (Ghent-Welvegem) takes the cake this time. Ineos were good, but other teams were a little lacking. Gen, TNT1, Mntboy and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kosmonooit Posted March 29, 2021 Share UCI needs to catch a reality check... Banning the supertuck and tri position whilst having no protocol on the hideous and dangerous behavior of the likes of Bouhani yesterday - there should be suspensions, fines, not mere relegations. Yet they want to tell others how to ride their bikes. How many accidents have happened from supertucks and tri positions? zilch as far as I know. This is where a effective riders union should act.

Groenewegen's suspension was questionable, but if that's the precedent, then the same MUST follow here. sure, there was no horrible outcome here, but the penalty that follows must be as if there was. my 2c on this. additionally, Bouhanni has a history in incidents like this and I feel it's imperative the UCI bring that into deliberations on further outcomes. unless they think socks are more important. I'm pretty certain that the Cofidis DS is happier now though... Vetplant and Gen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ineos were good, but other teams were a little lacking.A good analogy. However the Classics are more like knock out ODI ito the need to perform both individually and teamwise.
