How the hell did Saramotins get there
Shame, Cav was the best sprinter here
I know he was the best but the hills and cobbles really tired him !

Boonen is just unbeatable in E3
Too bad Van Avermaet beated cav to the line
what did Saramotins there
Thanks ! 6 wins for Boonen is E3 Prijs ! Amazing !
Let's think that Saramotins had +5 form and he is not a doper !
I will post a summary of what happened in March and then we move on to Ronde and Vuelta Pais Vasco ! I am posting faster than usual because I am on holiday ( it's Easter ) and I also want to get to Giro ! Hope it's ok for you !

Nice story you got here. Great results and screens, keep it up.
Thanks ! Trying my best , just my 2nd story , hope I will continue to be motivated !
Another month of cycling has ended . At the start of March we had an impressive number of wins : 17 ! Now we have 29 ! At the start of the season we had high expectations from the races that take place in March and the results were great : Tony Martinwon 2 stages and the GC in Paris-Nice , Mark Cavendish won 2 stages and the Points Jersey in Tirreno , but our hero is Tom Boonen. He won for the first time Milano -SanRemo and got his 6th win in E3 Prijs !
Rankings
UCI WT
Individual
Rui Costa is 1st thanks to his win from Vuelta Catalunya and the 2nd place from Paris-Nice . Boonen is 2nd , followed by Peter Sagan .

After some great races the 1st place is well -deserved ! We have almost 200 points advantage over RadioShack and Blanco . IAM Cycling and Vini Fantini are the best pleced PCT teams , while AG2R and Astana are the last ones from the WT division .

Mark Cavendish is 1st , followed by Sagan and Tomeke !

Paris-Roubax
De Brabantse Pijl
Tour du Finistere
Amstel Gold Race
Fleche Wallone
Liege Bastogne Liege
Tour de Romanide
Here it is : the second monument of the year - Ronde Van Vlaanderen ! It is one of the biggest goals for our sponsors and we definitely need the win ! Tom Boonen showed some great shape by winning Milano-SanRemo and E3 Prijs , so a win is very possible !
Profile
The new route is extremely difficult but , as we saw in 2012 , it suits Tom . Like last year we expect the duo Oude Kwaremont - Patenberg to make the difference .
Line-up
We have probably the strongest team in the peloton for cobbles and as you can see they are all in great shape !

The race
Like every year a big break-away was formed . The riders were : Goos, Dekker , Lastras , Cousin , Sabatini , Parisien , Grivko , Feillu , Siskevicius and Waeytens . Their maximum lead was of 8 minutes .
The "race"started at the first climb over Oude Kwaremont . RadioShack set an impressive pace and at the start of Patenberg only 25-30 riders were in thr first group . Many big names missed the selection : Eisel , Thomas , Boasson Hagen , Gilbert , Van Avermaet , Hushovd ,Vanmarcke , Ladagnous or Boom . Thanfully we were well placed and all of our "big guns" were there .
50 kms to go - only 10 riders where in the main group : Cancellara , Devolder , Roulston , Terpstra , Chavanel , Boonen , Vandenberh , Turgot , Sagan , Flecha and Leukemans . Vansummeren soon joined us .
With 30 kms to go Cancellara attacked . Leukemans tried to follow him !
Cancellara was in front and Sagan with Leukemans were at 30 seconds behind . We used Chavanel and Terpstra to reduce the gap as much as possible .
Boonen decided it was time to make his move ! He left Leukemans , Chavanel and Flecha behind ! With 20 kms to go he almost caught Vansummeren . Sagan was at 40 seconds in front and Cancellara at 1 minute 30 seconds .
He caught Sagan on Patenberg ! Cancellara was still 1 minute in front !
Spartacus was starting to tire and Boonen was closing !
5 kms to go - Boonen is 35 seconds behind !
Cancellara won for the 2nd time in his career the Ronde !

There are a lot of big names , it is probably the toughest race of the season so far , so with our pretty weak line-up we don't wxpect much !

The break-away was caught and on the narrowed and very steep last climb Dani Moreno attacked . He kept his small lead on the downhill and got the win !

The GC is exactly the same as the stage results because there is no bonification .
Stage 2
It was supposed to end up in a mass sprint but a last attacked in the last 20 kms by Burghardt and Isaychev fooled the peloton .

Stage 3
Cunego and Knees attacked with 20 kms to go . They entered the last 10 kms with a lead bigger than 1 minute . As soon as the last climb started D.Moreno and Nibali attacked from the pack.
They caught Knees and Cunego in the last kilometer and Moreno sprinted on the 15% slopes for the win !
This is probably the queen stage of each edition of Tour of the Basque Country - the uphill finish on Arrate in Eibar !
We managed to send 2 riders in the break : Barmbilla and Serry were joined by Westra , Garate , Gerrans , Lund , Dekker and Fedrigo . Our lead was of 9 minutes with 90 kms to go . We might have a chance to fight for the stage win !
With 40 kms to go only Fedrigo , Westra , Lund , Garare and Brambilla remained in front . Garate was very strong and he won almost all the points on the climbs .
Garate , Westra and Brambilla were in front . But the peloton was coming fast !
They were caught at the start of the last climb , on Arrate ! Nibali and Purito attacked . Moreno was trying to defend his Leader's Jersey !
Nibali won and took the lead in the GC !

Brambilla was again in the break trying to get that KOM Jersey !
But he was too tired after the effort he did yesterday and he was left behind . He got only 9 points , not enough to overtake Garate in the KOM Standings !
The break was caught and on the last climb Kreuziger attacked and got the win !

We did not get much from this Tour ! Next race : Scheldeprijs !
Edited by alex valceanu on 05-05-2013 11:58
This is probably the easiest classic in the calendar - no hills , no cobbles , it is just perfect for Mark Cavendish , who is seeking for a 3rd win in his career of Schelderpijs !
Line-up
Our team is very strong . Chavanel , Boonen and Terpsta are preparing for Paris-Roubaix by coming here to help Mark !

The race
Nothing important happened . A break-away was formed , they had a maximum lead of 6 minutes , but we were helped by Lotto and we caught them . With 10 kms to go we formed our train : Chavanel - Terpstra - Steegmans - Boonen . Lotto was also there for Greipel .
Things were still looking good for us !
Boonen tries to bring Mark to the front , but Cav doesn't have too much space !
Cav got blocked !
So Greipel wins with ease !

Not what we expected , but at least our team had a nice , final rehersal before Paris-Roubaix !
Paris-Roubiax - one of the most difficult races in the world . It has more than 250 kms and around 50 kms of cobbles . Boonen won last year for the 4th time and now is looking for a 5th success in "Hell of the North"!

***** Tom Boonen , Fabian Cancellara **** Juan Antonio Flecha , Filippo Pozzato *** Sylvain Chavanel , Sep Vanmarcke , Johan Vansummeren ** Niki Terpstra , Sebastian Turgot , Nick Nuyens * Greg Van Avermaet , Sebastian Ladagnous , Bernard Eisel , Geraint Thomas , Mati Breschel , Thor Hushovd
The race
The early break was formed by : Poulhies , Ferrari , Jans , Cordeel, Sutherland , Spilak and Delpech . Their maximum lead was of 8 minutes with 150 kms to go .
Here it is the pack on Trouée d'Arenberg ! Boonen was well-placed and surrounded by his team-mates . Breschel punctured and Phinney fell !
The atmosphere was calme , we almost caught the break , but suddenly Cancellara attacked on Orchies , with almost 60 kms from the finish line !
This was the group after Mons-En-Pavele ! Boonen , Terpstra , Chavanel , Boom , Vanmarcke , Breschel , Van Avermaet , Flecha , Pozzato , Ladagnous , Langeveld , Vansummeren , Nuyens and Turgot . Cancellara was at 50 seconds in front .
Boonen attacked on the first Bourghelles sector with 25 kms to go . Pozzato and Flecha tried to keep up but they immediately quit .
He caught Cancellara on flat !
On the 2nd part of the Bourghelles sector he upped the pace!
And Cancellara could not followe him ! Tomeke is going for his 5th win in "Hell of the North" !
These 10 riders would fight for the 3rd place !
Boonen entered the Velodrome with a lead od 45 seconds over Cancellara ! Nothing can stop him now !
WHAT A GREAT WIN FOR TOM BOONEN !
Ladagnous surprisingly won the sprint for the 3d place !
