That was a bit underwhelming.
Congratulations jandal!

Congratz Jandal, Bennett sure deserved a victory like this! And it's a special one for sure
My race turned out horrible again, another 0-pointer. February to forget, bring on March

Whoa, Bennett! Grats Jandal
Third is a very good result for us, sad our rivals did even better though. This gives us hope for the next hilly races (and makes me wonder if we should've raced more of those.. ugh).
Thanks tsmoha. |

Gratz to Jandal, glad to round out the top 10 with Pellaud who gets his first notable result of the season.

Nice one jandal, always nice to score a win in front of the home fans!
Though we missed our race goal of top 5, our points haul from Hollenstein and Vichot makes up for that shortcoming. Very pleased with the result, though Xero knock us out of the top spot. Still though, it was good to see Vichot show his attacking intent. One of these moves will stick at some point!

Marentes you sexy beast! WTF is he even doing in that final group? The man is a legend already on this team from his contributions in our first season, now 3 seasons later he rejoins us and is already proving he can still get us points.
Another disappointing day for our core leaders though as Chaves can't find the top 10, and other strong riders like Squire and Beccera aren't found anywhere near the front either. Congrats to Xero on getting the huge home win, those make everything feel better.

What a race for us! Seems like our main men never stopped attacking in our home race and it sure paid off! What a finish from Bennett - Home rider, home crowds, biggest goal completed Roux in 4th is the cherry on top, great to get those extra points. On top of the world here at Xero right now, definitely the best race ever for us Thanks for a great report tsmoha and everybody for the congrats

Good to see Roux doing so well for Jandal, Gilbert a bit of disappointing though when it comes to former Strava riders. Gratz to The Jandal.

Brilliant race here for Bennett, and Xero in general, a very deserved winner.
For us it was a shame that Frankiny couldn't hold on after an amazing day in the break, and judging by Hugentobler's sprint he probably could have placed better if only he'd been able to make one of the splits. Still it was nice to see such a good sprint from him at the end as it gives us hope for his chances in future hilly races.
And it's strange seeing him as only the 4th best Swiss rider here, if only I had all 4 as that would have been some amazing points.
