I'm not a huge fan of velominati, but this article always gets me in the mood for the Spring racing...

Pidcock 12/1....don't take my word for it.

I'm excited! For the women, it's hard to see past Demi Vollering or Annemiek van Vleuten but I'm crossing my fingers for Kasia Nieuwiadoma. For the men, I reckon WVA will be trying to prove himself.

Weather isn't playing nicely. Far too clement.

If his partner tried a bit harder , im sure Brad on bike could win this

Damn, hes unlucky. Covid three times (?) and now this.

W.V.A attacked on the final climb and stays away to take the win

 

[Cathryn]

Cracker of a race!

 

[bitsandbobs]

@Cathryn as you predicted, it's looking like a demi vollering, AvV shoot out!

 

[Cathryn]

I’ve done VERY well with my predictions today! NO idea how this will play out though!

 

[Cathryn]

AVV!

Never looked in doubt.

What use was Brad on a bike?
Never once told us something we didn’t already know. Waste of time?

Complete waste of time. From behind the bunch or the break he knew less than the comms or us!
