Jewbacca Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Is this another case of 'yeah nah, we won't chase because there are other strong Dutch riders so we will just let AVV go so these 3 can't win...' I don't understand the mentality DieselnDust 1

lechatnoir Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Keisenhofer putting in a great ride and fending off AVV. 30min ago, you have gotten fantastic odds on the gap not changing for 30min with AVV chasing Eugene Oppelt and Vetplant 2
JCA12 Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Will be really awesome if Kiesenhofer manages to stay away dsw and Vetplant 2

Vetplant Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Can't understand why the Dutch hasn't put two riders on the front to bring it back within reach for the Gold. All the favourites are not even going to get a medal. Breakaway all the way!
JCA12 Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 10k to go. Just under 4min lead on Peloton. If the Peloton don't get a move soon she might stay away
JCA12 Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Dutch have finally put 2 on the front. Maybe they will start bringing it back Vetplant 1
Eugene Oppelt Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Imagine the Fuji SpeedWay was the venue for the local crits. What a blerrie tough circuit. Love it.
Eugene Oppelt Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 An Olympic gold medal would be the biggest win of most cyclists career, but it would be a huge one for Kiesenhofer. Her biggest results have been winning the National time trial results and the road race as she is a five time national champion. Apart from that she has won stage 3 of the Tour de l'Ardeche in 2016.

JCA12 Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Kiesenhofer has 2:45 minutes with 3.5k to go. But gap dropping
Eugene Oppelt Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 38 years old, the powerhouse that is AvV - silver, wow, what a bike rider. Somehow she had matches left after that earlier attack.
JCA12 Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Seems like the Peloton (or at least the Dutch) didn't realise Kiesenhofer was up the road Vetplant 1
Furbz Posted July 25, 2021 Posted July 25, 2021 Kiesenhofer, a recognized time trialist but without a WorldTour team or any teammates in the race, came into the event as an absolute outsider for a medal but a perfect storm of questionable tactics from the major nations – especially the Netherlands - and incredible legs from the 30-year-old were enough to seal the gold medal in dramatic style. What a ride. I really am a fan of no radios in racing Underachiever, Wayne pudding Mol, Vetplant and 2 others 5
