Uh Chaves, what the hell? Did he crash or just awful day?

Certainly looks like a crash involving the captains, with the whole team (both Santos and Polestar) dropping back.
In happier news (at least for me): Thomas is on fire! Another excellent result, plus I congratulate myself on bringing Schorn to Gent-Wevelgem, 10th, that'll probably be his best result all season.

Not a perfect race for us at Gent-Wevelgem, but a decent performance. De Gendt is on fire though!

The speeeeeed! Wow loving the pace, thank you so much guys! Glad to still be third, should be hanging out with the top two of the CT given Chaves' crash, but that stuff will hopefully even out over the season - for now it's about consistency going forward to keep this great position!

Rankings update posted, really impressed with new WT teams Aviva and Vittel so far, Slovenia naturally couldn't keep the lead in the countries ranking, but still leads each individual ranking but U23 tour.
Also I have posted the first World Cup ranking, which is very dominated by Carbonsports after 7 of 20 races. Sagan already has a good foundation to defend his title here. |

Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

And here comes the danger time. Especially Allianz far too close to us at this point already, something I definitely dislike. Van Avermaet has not been the success we'd have hoped to receive from him yet, at this point scoring less WT points than Favilli is not optimal. Time to step up (for everybody else than Matej)!
U23-Team does very well though, really pleased especially with what Goncalves did in Roubaix for our team.

Really disappointed by results in cobbles, the team know it's hard to compete against more structured WT teams, but around 25th place as best result so far it's very poor.
Anyway impressed by the double podium in Kobenhavn Byrundtur with Hofland and Bille!!

Couldn't wait to see the March rankings - just awesome! Thanks for speedy posting and the compliments, Bikex. Of course Aviva will falter soon, but what a WT start it's been.

Boothroyd taking that big Paris Roubaix U23 team a very very good sign for the future!! And Phinney still being so so constant on the Elites, podium in E3 and Top10 in GW, racking up those points very very nicely.

Previews for one of the most important months in cycling out, 3 monuments, two unique time trial challenges including colombia, and some prestigious CT stage races in the form of trentino, south africa and dunkerque.
Expect some results soon (all of April and May racing done), however I will be gone from Thursday to Sunday w/o laptop. Ideally bikex or Croatia will continue to post April results?
Also missing Purito when I look at that Fleche hattrick.

That is some crazy tempo my man. But I can't say I don't love it
Not having cobble specialist in team sucks, but I was hoping maybe miracle can happen and one of my decent riders can score some points. I really hope my mountain guys will deliver in next months. |

still 2nd to last CT team The other teams better stop taking points everywhere or we can stay one more year in this division.
Is there any way to find out how many racedays some team have done and how much to go?
For April I'd hope Van Asbroeck can give us a first win. Aru against Bardet in Trentino. Hope we can keep up in the team TT.
Thx for the fast results

Rankings don't look promising, but we basically already knew that before the season. Villella has been doing very well so far though so hopefully he can keep that up for the Ardennes.
Thanks for the insane tempo Shonak!

Really really solid Wallonie for us, Wackermann 4th about as expected but Bennett and Ventura again doing well in the minor points in 7th and 12th, enjoying the hill depth and (hard to tell but hopefully) superdomestique work going on from us this season.
Sad RVV Junior was inactive but nice result for Ross in 5th.
