Getting pummeled by scrubs like Roux is unacceptable

Yes!!! This is a dream season by Bellis! We managed a stage podium and the overall which was unexpected due to the TTT. PCM18 is a god send after what was an average year last season.
Now I wonder where we are in the rankings because weve been on a roll for a while  congrats to Houle and Jandal for the SC win

Good to see some more breakaway action, and a great stage result for Fedeli, who just missed out on the points. Too bad it wasn't Thièry instead of Pellaud, he'd have had much better chances for the sprint.
Still, we can be more than happy getting a stage win out of what looked like a 0-pointer.
Congrats to ryant for the win and thanks a lot to jph - great reporting stuff!

Yeah this was one of the best races all season imo! Shame for Venter to drop out, but amazing to see Netia doubling up.

Claeys up to eighth, decent enough. Can only blame myself for messing up the TTT squad.
Congrats ryant, thanks jph for the reports!

ANTHONY ROUX Awesome stuff from the breakaway, the only guy in that break I'm happy held off Houle for the stage  Still annoying though given Houle would have moved onto the podium  Really a shame to see Venter drop out, very frustrating as that would have been a great source of extra points which we can really do with this year, as well as it being his home race in his final year before decline.
Still obviously a very good race for us in our home tour with 4th, 12th, 18th, Stage win, Points and our first ever Teams Classification win. The fact it could have easily been more with Houle missing some gimme stage wins to the break is quite exciting A really fun one and a deserved win for Bellis, who is quickly becoming our nemesis, congrats Bryant! And thanks jph for the reports, really good stuff and great to see you back reporting

Yay, two stage wins and a 1-2 on the last day! With Roux, Cherkasov, Bernas and Veyhe all doing fanstastic. Glad just to do well in a race that I actually care about, though it's a little funny considering this was always our worst race historically of the hills calendar.
Kinda weird just seeing our teams in breaks, something must be up with PCM if that's happening.
Thanks for the reports jph and gratz ryant on the win!
