Feel like Slagter could have won Tour of Alberta overall, if he had gone a few hundred meters earlier. He had such a punch, and neither Mollema or Yates could follow him
But just look at those lunatics running along side them 200m to go.
Where is those Mounties, like Guardia Civil in the Vuelta. Powerful boys throwing folks around if they get to nasty to the riders.
Same podium as yesterday. In fact 8 out of yesterday's top 10 were in the top 10 today again. Slagter will be a force to be reckoned with in the Canadian WT races.

I am rooting for Woods.
Katusha brought a surprisingly strong team here, if they lose that has to be a big blow.
How hard is stage 6? It looks great on the profile but I have no idea if the profile is close to accurate.

I can't quite tell either from the profile. It's a criterium with two climbs, comparable to Québec and Montréal I think.
Cav focused too much on beating Greipel, left the door open to Viviani who edged a very close photo finish.
Saw the race in two places today, so photos to come later!
Doull has some good sprinting results at a lower level. Had a chance to sign for Europcar for this season, but decided to stay at a British domestic level - is focusing on the Team Pursuit at next year's Olympics for now.
That Tour of Alberta stage 5 is horrible, thanks to weather. Dirt roads and heavy rain, makes it more a MTB race.
A very long section of dirt roads then they get rain....bet the organizers never thought that it should be this horrendous.
Paris-Roubaix the last few years is a walk in the park compare to this.

Lol the peloton gets lost hahahaha xD
They didnt get lost they got fucked by the race directors. The whole stage is a disgrace.
Its like they just drove through town and gave homeless people flags and said wave them someway when guys on bikes come close to you.
Don't know what's most strange, your comment, or the fact that some guy have given you a thump up and a thump down.
Hmmmm it's a close call but I'd say the comment
