Rowl Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 Great ride SKA, well done Sunweb. Vetplant and Mntboy 2
Gen Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 Sprint for points now . . .Nope.. They were at the back looking at each other lol Only way Sam doesn't take home green is if he misses time cut tomorrow and if something horribly goes wrong on Sunday... he has fought hard well done to him. Vetplant, Mntboy, The Ghost and 2 others 5
Mntboy Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 Very smart attack just after they rest closed gaps on that little climb Well done [emoji123][emoji122] Sunweb have had a great tour.He channelled his inner Gilbert with that attack! Really well done by Soren. He is a really clever rider and this was a very well deserved win.
Mntboy Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 Sam Bennett is going to be a very worthy winner of the Green Jersey. He has ridden his race with great consistency and clever tactics. If I am not mistaken this will be the first time that Sagan loses the jersey while being in the race since 2011 the year before he began his remarkable ownership of the green jersey.

He had a perfect strike rate before 2017 the issue. All good things come to an end.. Edited September 18, 2020 by Gen Mntboy 1
Vetplant Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 (edited) Sam Bennett probably surprised himself w.r.t how well he did to hold onto Green. Deserved winner. Edited September 18, 2020 by Vetplant Mntboy 1

Mntboy Posted September 18, 2020 Posted September 18, 2020 Besides for 2017 this will be this first year he loses the jersey..basically he has never lost the geeen jersey when he finishes the race until now. He had a perfect strike rate before 2017 the issue.I didn't count 2017 for that reason. Basically every year since 2012 barring 2017 when he got DQ'ed, he has won it if he made it to Paris. This will be the first year that he makes it to Paris but not wearing the green jersey and to far behind to change it. I maybe just expressed what I meant a bit poorly. A remarkable run coming to an end. Gen and Vetplant 2

A remarkable run coming to an end.Yep.. yeah he has been great over the last years.. fought hard, suffered and before the move to Bora he would also still look after the GC riders in his teams...given us plenty entertainment with all his breakaways... a great champ.
