Wow, 14th from Arredondo is quite a lot higher than expected  I doubt we'll turn around our last-place in the rankings but we can at least make it closer.

Final two stages of Poland are up now.

Spoiler Sorry to everyone involved that this race sucked balls. It felt like it was building up to something big the whole race but nothing ever happened. Too many crashes perhaps. Renova, Sugoi and Taco Bell should really stop walking under ladders and smashing mirrors

What are you talking about? That was a great race, my boy Tim Wellens! 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Yeah, I'm not sure too many managers will share your views though. Let's ask The Rider when he gets here.

this was the penultimate chance for Gaspa to sign a contract for next year...the last one comes at GP Quebec
Bazhkou was better in every single race the couple rode together...

Nice to see Tim Wellens taking the win. Will he be out of U25 category next year, right?

Haha!
HFUHUFH was that!

Ahh damn. Going into the race with the overwhelming favourite and a top sprinter and not taking a jersey is a drag. But we do leave with a stage win, at least, and Marcato was a big positive so we leave with two in the top 5. So yeah, not an ideal race but we do take good points from the race and I am all for surprise wins.
Still I don't regret sending Gilbert to these c1 races over the Vuelta. Another good finish in Spain.
Another race down from Bikex and Brewers, thank you! If we do go to PCM2013 again I would hope to help out, plenty.

Pretty disappointing performance there. No attacks and not even getting a top 20 in a home race is not really acceptable. At least the Dev Team did something.

First three stages of the next WT race, Tour of Northern Europe are up. One flat, one ITT and one very hilly.

SAP is probably in front of us as number of points scored in TONE so far, the fact that Terpstra is well below the top is very reassuring though.
Thanks for keeping the pace high brewers.

A more or less decent start for us, thanks for the fast pace!

Damn that TT was not good at all. Will be interesting to see if Terpstra can come back from this or if Chavenal could become our GC leader as he's in 10th.
Sicard doing pretty well in the KOM is nice too

Very good performance by some of my riders, especially Castroviejo likes ToNe a lot. I hope that a GC podium can be reached incl. some more pleasant stage results

Good start for CarbonSports. The stage win by Sagan is very appreciated and many team members are well positioned to climb positions if the cobble stages turn out to be selective enough.
Thanks for the pace!

Oh oh!
That is some top stuff for Langeveld so far. Nothing spectacular but I wouldn't have asked for a better start to the race than that. Don't forget cobbles are coming up that makes Cancellara a huge favourite for the GC win but Langeveld is in a prime position to get on the podium. A hard cobble stage please Brewers, no 'take-it-easy' stage like we had for stage 6 in Poland!
P(e)ace! |

Bit disappointed by Dumoulin's TT in ToNE, we will have to see if the cobbles create any time gaps.
