Gen Posted March 8, 2021 Author Posted March 8, 2021 (edited) I know why you’re anticipating this raceI'll just be happy to see him on the bike again.. I don't expect any fireworks from him though.. But hopefully he has recovered well enough to be there... Bora yet to confirm their squad. Edited March 8, 2021 by Gen 'Dale and Long Wheel Base 2
The Ouzo Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 He made it look like they were on junior gears TBH. After he went left to get faaar away from mobile chicane demare(who got blocked a bit by Mads-o the irony) he sommer gaps them and goois a look right and was like when are these okes going speed up. I am not really a Bennet fan but he does seem to be the fastest at the moment. Credit where it's due to him and Quickstep.I'm a Bennett fan, but its because of the name Long Wheel Base 1
The Ghost Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 George Bennett down.Looks okay but needs a new lid.
The Ghost Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 Wow he’s now so far behind the peloton it’s going to be unpleasant for him from here.
The Ghost Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 Well DQS messed that up hopelessly [emoji849] a couple hundred meters out and Sam was gapped already; I’m surprised he even managed to get back into the frame by the line.
Gen Posted March 8, 2021 Author Posted March 8, 2021 Sadly I missed the stage.. Mom duties.. Will give it a watch a little later.. These okes have been falling for 2 days straight [emoji102]

Vetplant Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Woah so far the Tirreno-Adriatico start list is bonkers..not all teams have confirmed their rosters but yoh.. It's gonna be fun. It's always a lekker race.. Think this year will be special.https://twitter.com/InsidePeloton96/status/1368896832320004096Will Newton@InsidePeloton96"The lineup for #TirrenoAdriatico is just silly. Pogačar, Almeida, Fuglsang, Yates, Landa, Nibali, Quintana, Bernal, Bilbao, Woods, Alaphilippe, Thomas, Bardet - and that's just the GC boys! You've also got the likes of Van der Poel, Van Aert, Ganna, Sagan...the list goes on!" DieselnDust, Nibali and Gen 3

So pretty. Vetplant 1

They need these stage races, so it’s fairly obvious to expect to see the best taking part.

More like a very strong field with added flavour lol Frosty, Long Wheel Base and Vetplant 3
rudi-h Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 Does anyone know why cycling coverage is so k@k this year? Omloop, Kuurne, Strade Bianche, none of these have been televised, previous years they were  Any live coverage on SS?
Gen Posted March 9, 2021 Author Posted March 9, 2021 Does anyone know why cycling coverage is so k@k this year? Omloop, Kuurne, Strade Bianche, none of these have been televised, previous years they wereThey didn't buy the rights to those races.. DieselnDust 1

More like a very strong field with added flavour lolyeah, I know. The tweeter’s use of the word silly was insanely incorrect (see what I did there?). He/She could have used stupendous (extremely impressive).
Vetplant Posted March 9, 2021 Posted March 9, 2021 They didn't buy the rights to those races..Maybe previously they could pick it up for dirt-cheap because they had zero competition in the DSTV territories for those broadcasting rights.  Whereas this year GCN came in and outbid them...? (Theory, I've have nothing to confirm this with) Gen 1
