Thanks a lot! Wow, these are really short races (exept for the ITT of course) - guess there won't be any breakaways allowed at all? At least, guys with low stamina won't have too much of a disadvantage, I guess.

It significantly reduces the chance (read: risk) of random breakaway winners, and allows for quicker reporting.

No surprising winners in either Belgian race, happy with a top 10 for GVK.

Disappointing start for us, we're the strongest team but we didn't use it.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

It was tested 2 seasons ago and outcome was very similar or same even in most cases. But with amount of NCs it is much easier for reporters to do this way. |

Had no high hopes yet in the Belgium cobble NC, but small hopes with a good day from Frison in the TT. Apparently he wasn`t doing very well getting beaten by De Bie there. But great depth at least in the top5. Hopefully one day in the future will get this one. |

Good performance by Vanspeybrouck, but he was never going to beat Stallaert in a sprint finish. Still a nice job in his final race for us.
Schoffmann on the other hand leaves with an expected whimper, but I won't forget his 7 years of service.
Congrats to viking and bikex!

Well, I didn't expect Zoidl to win either NC anyway, but I'm plased with the result though.

GET IN ADAM! The boss shows up and ensures we once again will have a beautiful Candian jersey to show the world next year.

When the time for the Bulgarian NC races come I hope I win neither.

Very good result from Zariff in Malaysia. In a few years he could really challenge Salleh for that jersey on a flat course.

Well done Dyrnes to claim the RR in Norway. Difficult to play any kind of numbers game on such a short route, but that's totally fine. Congratulations to jandal and viking on the wins! |

Was kind of thinking Dyrnes would be competing for 2nd behind EBH and that it wouldn't be an obstacle to my probably letting him go after the awful season - well that went wrong, going to be some points in his favour having such a big NC on his shoulders after a great win 
Great to get our hands on Eritrea too with a sweet 1-2 - though Habtom might be going for an upset there but I guess Debesay has a decent sprint and was fresher after the cobbles. Thanks for the reports so far guys!
