Vetplant Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Patch went there. Time for popcorn.It's like saying a given politician is corrupt. Deep down we all know it is true, but you can't really say it until they have been found guilty in a court of law.... Play the Game pe3nguin 1
Opc_danny Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 "Unintentionally" No no no no, Danny went there! Patchelicious 1

We didn't need to find guilt, all we needed was someone to fire the opening salvo. "Not normal"

Opc_danny Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Im sure Team sky are gonna wanna latch this boy up ASAP. Sagan must be feeling like its all over lol
s14phoenix Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 If we are honest - Jakob Fuglsang and Julian Alaphilippe where caught with their bibs on the floor fondling each other... :lol: Van der Poel just happen to be chasing really hard and caught them.

Opc_danny Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) Even this machine Michael Kwiatkowski caught those two at a rapid pace but the the big batch came at a roaring speed. It was a great finish, cycling aint dead.If we are honest - Jakob Fuglsang and Julian Alaphilippe where caught with their bibs on the floor fondling each other... :lol: Van der Poel just happen to be chasing really hard and caught them.

Wayne pudding Mol Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I'm going to believe he's as good as it seems - I definitely love the all or nothing approach. His dad told him to calm down and be more conservative. Apparently he told his dad to be a dad and watch and encourage him from the sideline. And while he was unbelievable (but to be believed) Simon Clarke was just behind so that was also unbelievable (wheelsucking but not in a negative way) Opc_danny, Pure Savage, Spoke101 and 1 other 4
DieselnDust Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Even this machine Michael Kwiatkowski caught those two at a rapid pace but the the big batch came at a roaring speed. It was a great finish, cycling aint dead. MVDP was at the head of that group at 1.2km. then he sat up and looked around. Simon Clark was willing to play. He went for it and MVDP went with him and then around him and was the win.the impressive bit started at about 8km out when MVDP started catching riders who had tried to bridge the gap and then dragged them along for the chase. There was a bit of Hinault right there Opc_danny, Wayne pudding Mol, Mopkop and 1 other 4
Squier Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Would love to see his power file for that last 10 km. Spoke101, RossW and peetwindhoek 3
Wayne pudding Mol Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Fairy tale finish but like DnD said above, the best part was dragging the group the last few kms with no help and yet no one could pass him peetwindhoek, Underachiever and Opc_danny 3
Patchelicious Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Im sure Team sky are gonna wanna latch this boy up ASAP. Sagan must be feeling like its all over lolI think this is what Sagan needs to win more monuments or classics. Well it’s what the peloton needs, for Sagan to win more.... somebody else to obsessively mark.
Robbie Stewart Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 Actually he's just Dutch. Very confident people so its easy to confuse this with arrogance. "Arrogant" is a very misinterpreted word. It gets used when people can't describe Confidence is a positive manner Don't get confused by what emotion looks like. Confidence: Arrogance: shaper, Shebeen, Wayne pudding Mol and 12 others 15
Long Wheel Base Posted April 24, 2019 Posted April 24, 2019 Would love to see his power file for that last 10 km.So far this is all I can find. His team posted it on their IG account. Vetplant, RossW and Christian van Zyl 3
