Nice thanks!kingstongraham said:
Front group down to 8 with an mvdp burst on a climb, Kung attacked but got nowhere, Campanaerts attacked over the top and downhill with his 58 chainring, brought back when Pidcock kind of attacked, Benoot attacked with 2km(?) to go, mvdp went across to him and they had a gap that nobody was bridging. Mvdp opened up the two man sprint from the front and it was won.rick_chasey said:What happened?

Wow, cracking race that.[Castle Donington Ladies FC - going up in '22]0

Good to have a race where the last hour or so is a good watch, riders committing to big attacks that seem like they are stretching the elastic to breaking point but they’re brought back then another attack goes.
Love seeing Campenaerts giving his all too.

van Aert won Omloop.. you know that means he's doomed for the big two, generational talent or otherwise. As far as quality of racing goes that was excellent, glad to see Van Der Poel back to it0

QS and Lotto having to chase. Gap looks to be about 40 seconds, but that's just a by eye guess.
Merlier, Philipsen, Kristoff, Bennett, Van Poppel Meeus in the front group.
Kirby having a panic attack watching a crash that happened some time ago....

That Thijssen crash was worth a shout about tbf.0

I'm not sure the televised part of that race could have been much less interesting. Glad I just had it on in the background.
Fair play to kristoff.1 -
