He wants a quiet/calm poo, although I left an e of the end because poep is de poep not het meaning the adjective rustig has an e on the end. Landelijk or rusitek is rustic.
God I'm bored!
I did say "adequate" not "accurate" translation - daarvoor hebben we google0 -
Distance to go and gap to the break if anyone is still awake please?0

It was very logical! Dutch is equal measures easy and hard.Correlation is not causation.0 -

Would it be normal for in such circumstances to switch to a new wheelset with rain tyres fitted?
...or maybe neutralise the stage.
1. That's one afternoon none of us will ever get back.
2. Sagan can drop back in tomorrow without a problem.Half man, Half bike0 -

I think we'll get away without one at the left turn at 2km to go, so probably one crash at the roundabout with 1km to go.0 -
Another day like this tomorrow?0

That and speclialist wet and dry tyres don't really exist in road cycling. Some tyres (e.g., Conti 4Seasons) claim to be better in poor conditions but that's more from a puncture resistance perspective.
Possibly the riders/mechanics might drop the tyre pressures slightly to give a better contact patch.0 -
10km to go, break ahead by 27"
Wide roads, just holding them there for the moment.0 -
8km to go, Katusha and Lotto now starting to work
There's a sharp left at 6km to go0 -
5km to go, 18" gap
Quickstep at the front0 -
Let the madness commence.0

Catch made at 3km0

Well Dimension Data have a good train, just a shame they don't have Cav anymore.Correlation is not causation.0

Demare in a good position again0

Kittel! Where did he come from?
Was watching Demare and Greipel.0 -
Anyone see what Kristoff was complaining about?0
-
Kit Kat.
What was EBH trying to do? Go from 700m? If Cav had been there that would have been an excellent lead out.Correlation is not causation.0 -
Demare looked like he went for a suicidal gap and got through. Think even he was surprised.0

True dat!
Demare again testing the patience of the rules...We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

Ha - tuned in for the last 500m - saw the man (with discs
) win again and turned off. Cool. ROAD < Scott Foil HMX Di2, Volagi Liscio Di2, Jamis Renegade Elite Di2, Cube Reaction Race > ROUGH0
