Road Stage Races 2021

Nice to see Fabio Jakobson back too

[Frosty]

Another win for Cav.

 

Would that imply that he's over his personal problems, or does a team really play a big part?

He pretty much surfed the wheels of the Israel Startup Nation and Alpecin-Fenix trains, but his teammates kept him in position behind the two lead out trains.

Great to see!!

Cav goes back-to-back! Not just a one day fluke.

 

Well well well.... will DQS have some tough questions to answer when the TDF team selection takes place? Sam Bennet or Cav? Can you take both?

Maybe Cav needs to just replicate this form at another race and they can make the call then.

I would think he needs to perform at another race. Aside, Greipel just doesn't have the power to take the win it seems.

 

Would be a potent mix to take Bennett, Cav, Jungels/Asgreen/Stybar/Jakobsen(?) and Alaflippie. But who leads out who and who supports JA in the rest of the stages.

You think he is still suffering from delusions of grandeur?

 

Surely he's along for some opportunistic stage wins?

8 km left in the stage at the Tour of Turkey.

 

Uphill finish

[Frosty]

Kudus was my pick in a WhatsApp chat at 12:30.

[Frosty]

And then he comes to grinding halt, almost.

Another Danish rider doing well on the higher hills.

And then he comes to grinding halt, almost.

Coming back, maybe?

[Frosty]

Slow motion sprints... brutal.

[Vetplant]

One of the slowest sprint finishes you will see 

 

That looked painful.

[Jakkals.]

Wow what a climb...I miss the days where Andy and Contador went on the attack with 6km to go.

I saw a clip somewhere of someone from alpecin-fenix who was riding in the banned aero posi lying on their forearms - but because he thought he's such a clever rule avoiding chap had his pinkies touching the brake levers. 

 

Today I see I see Alex Richardson DQ'd from Tour of Turkey.

 

Lekker, jy wil mos.
