So, we get 6th in Ronde, where points don't matter. Then we can't even scrounge a top 15 on home soil in the top HC cobbles race.
Yup, sounds about right.
Guess it's impossible to complain after the De Panne win, but it seems VSB's cobbles stat is not working the DB, or tsmoha's game is broken or something, or he's toying with his performance since VSB is his former rider. I don't know. Can't expect even the slightest bit of competence from my team though, that's for sure.
Actually, I would love to "deliver" big results for VSB
I know, obviously I know you have nothing to do with the results and aren't sabotaging my chances. It just seems bizarre that VSB has perform this way so consistently given his stats.
RIP Exxon Duke, David Veilleux, Double Feature, and Monster Energy
Good racing by Zepuntke. Has slim hopes he would stay ahead in the trio but sixth in a group sprint is not bad either. Albert and Lindeman picking up some points too! Thanks tsmoha for the report.
Congrats to Podium Ambition, Thomas is the King of Herning. Such a shame to see Carlsberg doing so bad in their home race.
Exactly what we brought Maes in for. A shame he couldn’t stay away and pick up another podium, but happy with the result. Congrats to Podium as well, it seems almost like cheating bringing Thomas here
Brilliant performance by Bush, think that is his 2nd podium from this season's PCT cobbled classics, which I reckon is good going/return given the depth of cobbled talent in the division. Great backing up by Harrison with a solid addition to the points haul. Love both these riders, and would like to give both the opportunity to perform even better with some training under their belts, but funding probably means only even remotely possible for one or the other to get that chance.
Congrats to TMM for the Thomas show (again, both here at Herning over the years, and again for an additional victory from him this season). Thanks to TSM for the usual high quality reporting. Final commiserations for Carlsberg who in my eyes during the off-season had built a cobbles team that was a real threat to dominate the terrain in PCT, and instead has barely turned up at all, unless on PT| wildcard duty (here at their home race being a particularly good case in point).
Oh and just recalled, this was a top-5 sponsor goal, so that is one in the bag .
Well, Blythe is slightly improving from race to race, but missing the podium is another disappointment from him. On the contrary, I like three low top 20 places from my lieutenants.
