'Dale Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 (edited) Final selection, 30 kms out vdB vs Vos vs Kasia vs Cecelie vs Deignan, each with limited team support Edited June 26, 2021 by 'Dale
'Dale Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 What a lekka La Course with a lekka climbing finalé. Jewbacca and Vetplant 2
Vetplant Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 Oooh, that is a very hard final 3km. Vos unable to hold it. My mind is almost favouring the GC okes for this one when the boys do it. Rog and Pog FTW!
'Dale Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 Aaaah, superb race craft by SD Werke. Vos marks the Rainbow Jersey, who is actually (again) riding for Vollering. And Vollering takes second big win, supported by Anna vdv Beautiful racing lechatnoir, Vetplant, Jewbacca and 1 other 4
Mountain Bru Posted June 26, 2021 Posted June 26, 2021 I wonder if we'll see the same shenanigans in the last km later today with WVA, MVDP and JA.... Vetplant 1

After the world champs a few years ago, I always doubt him in the cold/wet, but that's probably unfounded seen as he's spent his life doing cyclocross in crap weather. My guess though is that the last climb will come down to positioning, and that tips the scale towards WVA or JA imho. he rides cyclocross. those guys are tough as nails. 'Dale and Underachiever 2

My mind is almost favouring the GC okes for this one when the boys do it. Rog and Pog FTW! Gonna be interesting to see how it plays out. GC boys might not want to take yellow on stage 1 but with no 3km safe zone will need to stay at the head of affairs right to the end so might just go for it, MVDP wants to win everything in the first 10 days, WVA says he's not riding for himself and only Roglic, JA won't be able to resist an opportunity for yellow... Evan Ewan has a chance if no one attacks on the climb and he can hang on for a reduced sprint. 2016 Sagan would probably take this in his sleep though. Vetplant 1
