Good luch roturn, hope it goes well.
Niceto see the 2016 (pre-) season kick-off. Bit disappointed that Jones wasn't paying closer attention in the crosswinds. Hope for more alertness tomorrow (although hewill still struggle in sprints given the strong start-list).
As the sprinter contingent looks very strong in CT this year, the big question for Brenton is going to be will he even participate in sprints, nevermind produce any results!

Good job by Patrick Lane, though I'm wondering... usually he starts his annual Bay-attack in Portarlington. Wouldn't be surprised to see him tomorrow in the break again. Avanti is really missing a fast man.

Disappointing again

11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant."

Docker is anonymous once again, I really hope this isn't a sign of things to come for the season.

Well first win of the season for red bull thrilling sprint that one.
Many thanks as ever to tsmoha, drapac has a nice overall lead I wonder if Chen can close in on him.

Nice and unexpected top 10 for Haidar Anuawar after pulling the field into pieces judging by the pictures, thanks for the report.
Now looking forward to see if Wang can do anything in the hilly race. |

Nice to see the Chinese team going strong!
However tsmoha, do you use autogenerated colours on accesories? If not, have I really chosen pink, when I tried to choose green colours? |

Again a good performance by Drapac, shame to miss out on the victory this time but maintaining a solid lead in the GC!

Nice to have Itami in 2nd place. Its doubtful he can win the overall GC though, but a stage win for the Japanese team would be great.

Nice to see Ghani in the break and Salleh on the podium again, Drapac will be hard to catch but you never know what can happen, if he's badly placed for the final sprint crit then it could end close.

Good win for Chen, and also a great ride from the Japanese team to get Itami up there. Thanks tsmoha for this!

Nah, I was too lazy to change every team's auto colors! So it's some bad looking accessoires here

Well...let`s hope Bennett is doing better in regular season then.
Surely had hoped for a top5 here instead of far behind the pack.
Either he should have followed the Haas trio earlier or at least make a more powerful attack in the end. |

Puh!
Thanks for hosting this! As usual Compal turns invisible near the finish when it goes uphill in the crits, but hopefully we can take a victory with Matthews on the next stage. |

Disappointingly invisible race aside from Scully joining the break
24/02/21 - kandesbunzler said “I don't drink famous people."
15/08/22 - SotD said "Your [jandal's] humour is overrated"
11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant."

That was a nice win there for Othman, hopefully he can put up some similar rides like that in our jersey throughout the season.
