E3 and Gent Wevelgem Weekend with Spoilers.

[No Ta Doctor]

MvdP on the front, nearing the top of the cobbled Oude Kruisberg, casually sits up and strips off his rain jacket. Mads P just behind him decides it's a signal he needs to ditch the arm warmers

There's plenty of big engines in that front group. How did Ganna not get in it when half his team did?

Well it's all back together now, but it was a split in the peloton caused by a big crash after about 6km

 

[mididoctors]

Think.of it like a handicap race

 

[mididoctors]

Vtm.is ok ..few hoops

 

[No Ta Doctor]

Aime de Gendt (Cofidis) attacks from a broad front on Knokteberg. Looked like he was going to be completely ignored but Casper Pedersen (QS) joins him and a couple of others are trying to bridge. Think we probably need a break in the race

 

[Blazing Saddles]

It’s all starting to warm up…..

 

[No Ta Doctor]

It’s all starting to warm up…..

The fight for position has been quite intense for a while - every inch of the road and (don't look UCI) quite a bit of cycle paths/pavement being used

 

[Blazing Saddles]

Ineos suddenly explode into action

 

[Blazing Saddles]

I am even tempted to open a Belgian brew in a show of support.

 

[mididoctors]

Tom boonen.. over rated or not?

 

[Blazing Saddles]

It’s splitting

 

[mididoctors]

Go on mads

 

[Blazing Saddles]

Pedersen attacks with MvDP…

 

[No Ta Doctor]

Mads P attacks on Taaienberg and blows the race up!

'MvdP is with him, Ganna makes it as well, that's a trio that could stay away

 

[Gweeds]

No sign of WvA with the three attackers.
