>>57890065

True, but second tier races. Tour of Britain is probably the only one people might see.

I didn't say he'd win, I said he's willing to go all out to do it. fwiw I think he could do it. Boonen thinks he's clear fav.

All of you attending, do some fucking rain dances!

>>57890282
I can't see how he would actually win. There's literally no way he could win a sprint, and he isn't explosive enough to attack. I don't think he's strong enough compared to the other main contenders to just ride clear off the front either. I think sky would be much better off focussing 100% on Thomas. With someone as strong as Wiggins behind him to help control things, and given his strong recent form, I think he could take it.

>>57890659
he is pretty much a weaker cancelara for classics.

with bonen and cance ded he might have a chance but i doubt it

>>57890282

Tour of Britain needs to be upgraded to the world tour. It can replace the Tour of Poland.

>>57890736
I wouldn't say he's a weaker Cancellara, rather a totally different kind of rider.

does anybody else think predicting the winner for classics is an exercise in futility?

>>57890659

He's talking about breaking with a small group here, says he's definitely stronger than he was last year when he should have attacked, but didn't.
It's been pissing it down all afternoon, so he's probably fucked anyway, lel.


http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/news/latest-news/bradley-wiggins-guide-to-paris-roubaix-166119

>>57890659

He won a bunch sprint in Romandie!

He needs to still be there in the final 30 then make his way into a small group that Etixx + Katusha are happy not to chase (something like Terpstra, Roelandts, Oss, maybe Paolini). Then you never know.

>>57890798

nah. don't want to make it so the smaller british teams aren't allowed to race.

>>57890845

Kristoff, mate.

>>57890798

I was in Sheffield on Jenkin Road for the second day, absolutely mental, will never forget it.

>>57890974

Nah his form has been beastly but nothing lasts forever

>>57890945

Yeah good point actually. I'd love see more of the top riders race it though.

>>57890845
Mostly, but it's still kind of fun.

>>57890870
I think he's certainly stronger than last year, but I still can't see how he's going to attack from what will inevitably be a bunch of some big name classics boys, he just doesn't seem to have the explosiveness. And it will most likely be dry for the race tomorrow, but I think a wet race would actually favour him quite a lot.

>>57890886
That was against a bunch of GC riders and climbers while he was at the absolute peak of his career, there's just no way he can out sprint guys like Degenkolb or Greipel, even if he was somehow stronger than he was back then. And there's no way any team will let him get into a small group out front unless they have their no1 man in there with him.

>>57890974
The peak he was on at Flanders and Scheldeprijs is most likely over now, I would say he's an outsider for Roubaix.


.

>>57891873
>And there's no way any team will let him get into a small group out front unless they have their no1 man in there with him.

Why not if he can't outsprint anyone? Especially if Kristoff is behind.

>The peak he was on at Flanders and Scheldeprijs is most likely over now, I would say he's an outsider for Roubaix.


Based on what?

>>57892019
>Why not if he can't outsprint anyone? Especially if Kristoff is behind.

Because he's still strong enough to attack out of a mid level group, especially on the cobbles, and then he'll be incredibly hard to bring back.

>Based on what?

The way his performances have increased up to this point from around San Remo time is typical of a taper and peak, and that peak won't last forever, especially when his level of performance was so high in Flanders. I think he's an outsider because now he'll, most likely, be coming off his peak, whereas some other riders will be hitting theirs just at Roubaix (such as, seemingly, Vanmarcke)

>Look familiar? It should. Alexander Kristoff is sticking with his Canyon Aeroad aero road bike, the one he used to win the Tour of Flanders last week, for the bigger, nastier cobbles of Paris-Roubaix. In fact, most of his team will ride the Aeroad, rather than the Ultimate, a more traditional road frame. The Aeroad has plenty of clearance, even for a 28mm tire, so the team believes it doesn't need the extra cushion provided by an endurance frame.

>tfw no Tour of Russia

Where is Kristoff hiding? Haven't seen him all day

>>57916654

They had 2 in a group of 4 and chose not to ride. Weird.

Around the 9th position.

Wiggins can't do this now, no way he gets away from this mob.

The French have a lot of very good young riders. It's just a matter of time before one of them has a breakthrough.

>The Belgians have a lot of very good young riders. It's just a matter of time before one of them has a breakthrough.
Totally agree m8

>>57917253
At least you actually have promising young riders such as Tiesj Benoot.

>>57917253
The thing is you already have many based riders.

Was it van avermaet that got fucked by flag in the last 30 km a couple of years ago ?

DEGEEEEEEEEEE

>>57917281
He's actually a m8 of mine.

impressive ride by the fat german

Speaking of belgians, Keukeleire being up there is nice.

Stybar going for the jump

STYBY

>>57917419
probably just knew he wouldnt win and made up an excuse.

>>57917428
Ce gros blanc après l'annonce.
Pas le bon moment pâh.

>>57917437
Actually not that unlikely

>>57917437
german ES commentators said he had some troubles with his handlebar the whole time

"Stybar not going to do any work here"

ayyyyy

>>57917465
eurosport talkned about him banging the left brifter.

>>57917465
Belgians said it was his gears, then they said it was his pedal

Wiggins making a play for the dignity of the elderly

I just hope Dege didn't waste all his powers

great final so far

>>57917479
I'd imagine that this is what watching a seppuku feels like.

>>57917479
"Come on Wiggo give em the old 1,2...I wonder what Froome's doing?"

>German nationalism on the rise

GERMANS WINNING IN PARIS

Good stuff.

DEGENGOAT

Good job Degenkolb, it's not often you see a rider so young with such clever tactics to go with strength. (unlike Sagan.)

4.5 belgians in the top10 isn't that bad

>>57917645
nobody talks about the losers m8 #1 is where its at

>>57917657
this tbh

according to Michael Morkov from Tinkoff, Sagan had to take a shit in the side of the road after 120 km. Apparentely he had some stomach problems

Ameribros, are there any nice 1 day races in the US ? steep hills and all ?

>>57917710
lel

>>57917657
I think Avermaet deserves a mention for doing exactly what is expected of him, getting third.

The ride is over folks, i really enjoyed it. Next week.

Tfw no shimano to ride over degenkolb :(

i have to carry this all the way home?

Degenkolb could win AGR next week too

>Wiggins not even in the final group

and Sky fail as a result of going all in with Wiggins once again.

>>57917970
That would really surprise me, I don't think he can get over the final climb as good as the rest
