No worries, hope you had a good time!
Btw; did you post and then remove the report? I'm quite sure I read it this morning.

I removed it due to narrow roads unfortunately.
Going to wait for a decision later on. |

Oh, that's a shame! Hope a restart is not necessary, because it was a great report and I also liked the outcome.
Did that second group lose contact due to the narrow road situation?

The wrong stage was used, so if you did unfortunately see the report before roturn removed it, you should just forget what happened. It will have to be replayed with the correct stage.

Ok. Very unfortunate indeed, but I understand the decision.

I was happy enough with the initial report, hopefully Trentin can do better in the next one

Now there's this "how did my team do?"-feeling
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

is this race canceled? I'm hoping not because I desperately need all the cobbles stages I can get.

A really really strong start list. De Vocht and Steegmans could do well. I am hoping for a top 10 but that will be really hard!

Huge thanks to roturn for replaying the race! (And spotting the narrow roads in it's first run ...)
Very surprising winner, who played his wheelsucking to perfection. Huge points haul for a CT team! Summerhill unlucky, but then again outscoring Vanspeybrouck easily. Another poor showing from BPost after today's result in G-W. About time for Count's guys to give him some reason to cheer.

Meh. At least it wasn't our rivals scoring big this time.
Good win for Lierse, congratulations. And thanks roturn.

Joseph, I want to kiss you right now!
Not the most beautiful win, but if you're in the break for a while and Cancellara shows up behind you, you would just wheelsuck as well
Without a doubt the biggest win of our season/career. A big Belgian race, strong C1 field and we take it, great job!

14th is another good result for the team, hopefully Drucker can keep this up for his remaining cobbled races and possibly steal a top 10 at some point but as long as he keeps hitting top 15's then we'll be happy back at base.
On a slightly unrelated note with the PT update coming out I hope we'll get a PCT/CT one soon, will be nice to see how we are doing compared to the rest of the division. I can't tell if us consistently getting top 15's is enough or whether the team needs to push on and get better results to be competitive/ not last/ have a small chance of survival.

What a ride by Stijn Joseph
Big time victory for Lierse!
Boonen 4th is okay. Hoped for more but this is acceptable. Especially with others performing as well! I do like Kulppi's move a lot. With few domestiques here we had to take the chasing pressure of our shoulders.
Flaksis and Dakteris would surely have helped here as Ingels/Kulppi alone could not help Boonen enough.
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters!

Awful result for us. Veelers probably had a bad day this time, because in the cancelled report he managed a nice 5th place.
Congrats Ollfardh, that was a clever win by Joseph.

Not unhappy.
8th is decent and better than we've done in the previous classics, I believe.
Still not where we want to be, but well, it's better than GW, and I guess the race didn't go the way we wanted anyway. Verbist puncturing didn't help at least, cost some energy and happened when he should've attacked(in my eyes ).
However, an 8th place is not nice when you see Maes getting 3 stars in the PCM favourites preview.

Obviously not the result we wanted, but a 2nd is nothing to scoff at. Disappointed to get no help from Joseph, but he did what he needed to get the win. Thanks Roturn for catching this race up.
