and the 7th place by Sithembile
I really, really hate that name. I think I managed to write it in the entire report only one time correct. After this race, I might be a bit of a fan of Peter Pal though.

Super report there.
But the race ....................
5th at Flanders is great ......... but when Cancellara is so far ahead of the rest apart from Boonen I Imagine he must be a bit injured to be so low down in addition to the fact he was dropped.
I hope the db hasn't screwed Spartacus over, he and Boonen should be on 82/83 cobbles with the rest on 79 or below (several exceptions may be on 80 but not 81).
( Also a custom rider being fourth at this early stage in a monument...... ain't right ..... it is ridiculous...... farcical)....... |

Disappointing Race by Katusha but I am happy with the performance by our new signing Löwenherz |

If only the quality of the team's performance had been able to match the quality of the report...

I like GvA a lot, but FU, we had to win :-D
Die hard fan of Tom Boonen and Quickstep since 2004.

Well, he wasn't listed in the startlist I received at least. If he races Paris-Roubaix I'll make sure to catch some screens of him though.
@Bikex: I couldn't believe my eyes when the race started and Löwenherz was one of the first to attack. I was like "YEAH!" and then, "wait a second, he's black?" Really unfortunate about Kristoff but he never really stood much chance in the race as he was most of the time caught/stayed in the back of the peloton. When Paolini got ordered back to help Kristoff... well, that was weird.
@Stromeon: Thanks Well, I'm looking forward to McDermott at Paris-Roubaix. From what I know of the guy, Roubaix is better suited to him than Ronde.
@kubys: Nonetheless the race of Omega Pharma was amazing. Especially Terpstra was incredible how he paced up Koppenberg.

Good report, bad result.
Just for reporters in the future, if you don't mind obviously, could you please post the preview in a separate post, because I like to write the preview in my HQ at that point.

Wasn't aimed at you, as Accent were there with a proper set up of riders. It just wasn't the list the Oldfart should have sent! The manager hasn't been around so Cheli set his own race schedule which Oldfart forgot/ignored/got wrong
All blame lies with Oldfart!

There are black Austrians, Alaba is also black
Kristoff will have a serious talk with the manager, so he will do better at our goal Paris Roubaix
I forgot to say, Awesome report! |

It's not about him being austrian or not. He could be african for all I cared. It just doesn't suit all this nice tumblr pictures I have collected for him.

Well, the RVV was not our main focus anyways...
But holy sh!t what a hell of a report! Thank you so much for that one
And, of course, apologies for riding over Voeckler's face... it wasn't possible to evade

As said before, I only do it for people who post their races and raceday total. Welker was the only one to take up the offer so far.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

There will not be anything up tonight from Spain, as the game master seems to have misplaced the startlists of some teams

It was literally right above his, and we even discussed it!

Yes, and in particular we discussed that I require your total racedays..
Though you could write about passport problems to start the race or something
