Seeing great competition here, nothing is decided yet. They'll try to break Tennant in stage3 |

You can't win them all and Lavoine didn't have the best leadout here, still cool seeing Janiaczyk being able to pull in front. Stage 3 will decide it all and I think Durasek will fail, but I don't hope so

I will happily take a podium from that stage! Shame Gallopin missed the split and dropped on GC.
And Shonak... FU for bringing the squad that you have here!!  oh and well done

What a one sided race 
At least Lejman proved that he can do something. The stage wasn't hard enough for Durasek and didn't gain time, but only a 10th GC spot.
Strava is both strong and not only a team behind Langeveld. I had high hopes and a points jersey is within reach next stage

Wtf best stage ever or what?!
Obviously super happy at how the team did today; they kept the jersey, were present and got a 1-2 to top it off. Glad it worked out all according to plan: Get the jersey with Tennant, defend it with good puncheurs. Just don't throw the goal away on the last stage, I beg of you guys.
This stage calls for some bananas

God I hope Muhlberger can bring some of Strava's tactics and success back from his loan with them next year.
It's good to see them doing really well here again and keeping up their fight for the CT title. Looking at the profiles for this race I can't help feeling that Zoidl will love this one next year.

Good to see the team trying to go for a breakaway, and as expected it failed. Surprised to see such a relatively small group in the end, but I'm not surprised to see Tennant hanging on. All in all Strava the big winner of this stage and race, although I hope we can pull off a surprise on the last stage.

If Strava was going to lose the GC it would be on stage 3. So what happens, they destroy the race!
Climbing back up the rankings in style, I imagine - in a win goal as well. |

Quiet day for Strava just the way I like it. Very happy with the team here and after the way we failed our goal in GP Herning, this completed goal is all the sweeter.
Thanks tsmoha once more!

That was quite an anticlimax in the end. Oh well, a rubbish race overall it is then. Next please

Lavoine won the sprint! But a breakaway was already over the finish
What a disappointing race and Tennant even takes the points jersey
Durasek with a 10th place is okay, but the third stage wasn't hard enough to make a real difference. Only bright point is that Lejman actually did something and the future is still bright for him
Thanks for the reports tsmoha and I hope Giro del Capo will be a good race for us, even though it's gonna be a hard race.

The starting tt is probably the first time Boaro disappoints me... But this time around I do think it's just PCM 14 fucked up TTs AI. I mean wtf was that sh*t 
GIRARDI our best finisher in a race with 77 tt Boaro and Rolland... But well I can accept that. Think so far we had luck on our side in pretty much every single tt (obviously Windhoek is first on my mind )
Yet, my GC hopes are pretty much gone already, which is absolutely sad considering this could have really, really been a big point bag for us.
But why be so negative Matt? Read the remaining reports first ok?!
Ah nice, Moser underperforming in a stage race, what's new?
Should have bought the clearly superior Pelucchi.
Ok fuck off Strava this ain't funny anymore -.-
WTF PCM?! 
After stage 4: This stage race was rubbish. My lads mustn't like cold. Like not at all lol. Jeez this is gonna hurt our ranking after a promising Herning...
Thanks anyway Tsmoha and big gratz to Strava which doesn't fail to amaze me once more!

Nothing sprint, but happy with Gougeard in the break and Gallopin holding 7th on GC. More than I expected, so no complaints from me
Well done Strava and thanks for another fantastic race report tsmoha
