printer Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 The UCI will have to take action now. The riders and teams will not accept any dithering. Antonie RIP The drlver could find himself prosecuted too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nakamura Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I didn't see Antonie crash and I probably won't want to, but so terrible, rest in peace. Just last week, I watched an older monument (don't remember which one, I was on a binge of watching many different ones), where two neutral cars crashed into riders in the same race. They must seriously re-think safety. Also, different opera, but was it last year's Giro when a spectator rode a bicycle into the peloton and crashed a bunch of riders. Can this security prevent a terror attack? Peloton just looks like a very vulnerable target. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Nomad Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Didn't see any of Gent - Wevelgem as couldn't find it covered on Eurosport, the self-proclaimed home of cycling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

printer Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 It was on this thing called the bike channel - http://www.bikechannel.co.uk/programmes/gent-wevelgem/ That's a couple of races been on the Bike channel recently. Either Kurne-Brussels-Kurne or Omloop Het Nieuwsblad were as well. There's the occasional other worth watching show on it too. You get it with Virgin as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desert Nomad Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Well if you're gonna get the monkey off your back, may as well make it arguably the biggest win of your career. Love how Sagan doesn't leave it down to a sprint in these classics. Top marks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's the occasional other worth watching show on it too. You get it with Virgin as well. Romandie & Trentino are just two of the races coming up on Bike.Top win for Sagan, could he do Roubaix next week? He's certainly the form man.

kiddy Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Scheldeprijs on the bike channel tomorrow. Really steep finish in today's Basque Tour stage. Good win for Landa & Sky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Nomad Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Been watching Basque Tour all week, some great racing as usual.

Joey Jo Jo Junior Shabadoo Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 Paris Roubaix today was superb. Hayman wins and looked genuinely shocked at the end. 800-1 shot apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hayman wins and looked genuinely shocked at the end. 800-1 shot apparently.That he outsmarted & outsprinted 4 time winner Tom Boonen, certainly was a surprise for a guy to win it in his late 30s. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nakamura Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 I was rooting for Boonen at the end, only because it would've been a record. But good for Hayman. Boonen allowed himself to get boxed in and had nowhere to go, unusual for a great sprinter. He choked it away. I'm sure he was kicking himself after that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 Excellent win for Gasparotto in Amstel Gold. Considering recent weeks events, it was nice to see Wanty Group Gobert take the win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
