If you click on a thread about a race that's ongoing /just finished in a racing forum I think you have to expect the possibility of some form of spoiler

if you click into the race thread AFTER the race ends, i think you accept the consequences.

Yes, I know. I clicked on it to find the link so i could watch, but then it was too late. Not to make a big deal, but a simple "spoiler alert below" goes a long way and takes 3 seconds.

You realize that this thread is a lot older that today right?
Nonetheless Quick Step delivers.

as for quinziato, in a post race interview, he said that he had hoped that chanvenel would work because chavenel was (on paper) faster at the finish.

Chavanel looked very tired at the end, and if Quickstep sent Devolder to join his group with 20-30 to go I guess they weren't feeling very fine with having the french there.

Well thanks OLN. Twenty after and they're still in their after CART race show. Glad I watched the race live this morning.
Cool.

Gregory Rast is an idiot.
That hole was closed and he took out Hincapie in the process.
Devolder has learned the art of Classics peaking. Very much in the style of Van Petegem.
Work, work, work, work, work, win.

Devolder was awesome. Seemed like Chavanel was a bit POed at the line, no smile no nothing.

That too. All he did was mark Boonen, then sit up when they'd get off the front. But Devolder slaughtered him on that climb before the Muur.
Why would Quinziato think that? Is he stupid? Chavenel had SDV up the road and TB just behind, he's not going to do a tap.

Make fun of me, I don't care, but Heinrich Haussler looks like a stereotypical lesbian.

it's not just that photo. Cyclingnews took about 30 pics of him for the centerfold of Lesbian Quarterly.

Quick question :
what's the worse climb the Muur or the Koppenburg?
( yes I know one is 1000m while the other is barely 100m )
