So cool.

Plantur-Pura, the team initiative that gives CX stars an opportunity to race road.

Yara Kastelijn had a big off on Sunday, and got take to hospital, just a popped shoulder. She is perhaps the only one in that team that has been featuring up front, although she does have a deeper history on the road cf to the other girls, but great to see them in a team, in CX you are on your own!

Too much torque 2021-rvv-men-31-1340x1042.jpg

That's from the men's race, @DJuice.

 

AvV has that riding style that looks so rof (similar to me between hour 4 and 5 of my weekend rides)

Aaah but what often happens is no-one in the chase group are willing to take anyone else to the line.. So what happens.. They lose.

 

I can never understand why riders are happy to race for 2nd or 3rd places. makes no sense. If you are in front you always have a chance to win. And thats why we race.........

Agree, position does not look comfortable. Obviously works...

❄️ ️ ????

 

After pleasant weather for the Tour of Flanders and many of the other major Spring Classics, the peloton could be in for a rough ride in Wednesday's Scheldeprijs and the first-ever edition of the women's Scheldeprijs as the weather forecast calls for cold temperatures, high winds and hail or wet snow possible.

Lol they both threw there bidons (Asgreen And MVDP) .. But apparently it was in a litter zone.

 

And it seems AVV threw hers outside of a litter zone but no DQ[emoji848]

 

Consistency hey?

Speaking of the women's race:

 

 

Letizia Borghesi (Aromitalia-Basso Bikes-Vaiano) was disqualified for throwing a water bottle at the Tour of Flanders on Sunday. In a post on Instagram, Borghesi said she felt that the punishment was excessive and that it made her feel 'like a criminal', adding that the fine was more than what Annemiek van Vleuten (Movistar) earned for winning the race.
