Vetplant Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 We spent 2 weeks in Turkey over December 2013, absolutely loved it. Going to see if I can follow the racing, especially through Istanbul today. Only a handful of World Tour Teams riding, so DDD might have a chance at snatching a victory or two if they play their cards right.
Vetplant Posted April 16, 2019 Author Posted April 16, 2019 Stage 1 Starts in Istanbul, only two Categorized climbs in the day and a LOOONG finishing "straight" into the Tekirdag should see the sprinters teams lining up for a showdown.

Ispeed_V Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Gibbons still not 100% well, so not not sure if he will feature in any of the sprints. Lets wait and see
Vetplant Posted April 16, 2019 Author Posted April 16, 2019 Gibbons still not 100% well, so not not sure if he will feature in any of the sprints. Lets wait and seeNot even a top 10 for DDD... what's going on?
Grant G Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Gibbons still not 100% well, so not not sure if he will feature in any of the sprints. Lets wait and seeHe was told he has to work for the other sprinter in the team.......
Gen Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 Not even a top 10 for DDD... what's going on? Sammy B has been in really good form this year..impressive win..as with Viviani is also in good form.
Gen Posted April 16, 2019 Posted April 16, 2019 ....pfff ,like Cavendish , thats a pittyPff they will go with the whole..it is Cav's first race back thing..probably find he isn't even able to keep up with his leadout men.
Cheese Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 Pff they will go with the whole..it is Cav's first race back thing..probably find he isn't even able to keep up with his leadout men.Saw they indicated that the leadout lost each other .Nothing about Cavendish, also nothing that the whole team finished just behind him
J Wakefield Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 100% or not, Gibbons should be there #1 protected sprinter. He's that good.
Cheese Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 100% or not, Gibbons should be there #1 protected sprinter. He's that good.Agree, Today is much better suited to Ryan so lets see what happens. Hopefully Ben can also be there for a good GC result for the week.
