Not a bad day's work for Vespa. Done OK on the cobbles so far this season. |

The 'gamble' pays off for Wiggle, but I think Waghlon and SN need to get some druids or something to ward off the dreaded predo curse.
A complete disaster for Cillit Bang, but rock solid stuff from Ikea and finally some headway for the Vespa squad. Just maybe they can start to climb the rankings. These cobbled races are paying dividends for the Ikea team who actually have been having some pretty weak races recently.
A few strange selections here, no Intesa, Cillit Bangs complete refusal to support Gusev with any of their half decenmt cobblers and no Hoste!!!
Anyway congrats rjc... its looking pretty good for Wiggle at the moment. |

Ponzi didn't perform to expected standards, so to perform on home soil is nice to do. Gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside... or that could be worms...

What a surprise, riders from one of my man game teams, this time Blythe and 100% Me, find a way to fail - it no wonder I struggle to care about the game any more. This time the problem is having Waghlons rider crash into him.
Also, Gusev is a database sabotage by SN.
Gusev was always a crap move for you. Blythe is the one massively underperforming.

Just posted the startlist for Scheldprijs.
Your suspicions are right, startlist posted would imply I have played it and the report should be with you by the end of the weekend. I intend on playing Tro Bro Leon over the weekend also and so that report will probably come fairly soon after Scheldprijs. I may post the startlist later, suffice to say it will be pretty similar.
Your favourites for the cobbled races are back for the this double header. Blythe, Gusev, Steegmans, Eisel, Hoste etc. are back to try and dethrone the cobbled king Pieter Vanspreybrouck. Its going to be difficult to do in Belgium of course, but then Pieter is not the only Belgian with cobbled ability!

Startlist is up for Tro Bro Leon as well.
As I said much the same, Bbox left Hoste out of their Tro Bro Leon line up. Also Highroad sit Tro Bro Leon out, whilst Yamaha and Benfica join in the fun in France  .
Reports will be with you on Sunday evening... |

I'd be delighted if Vespa managed to sneak a win in either race - but it's looking as if Steegmans and Verbist don't have it in them. |

Scheldprijs posted was a fun race with lots of action...
some good rides and some really disappointing rides as well .
Tro Bro Leon was a bit different, will post those results later tonight! |

Wow, SN's luck has been so awful.

I guess I can call my team as "kings of averageness" as all my riders finished between 15th and 29th place...I´d expected more
anyway, thx to Smowz for nice shot of attacking Kluge

Good report, snowz. |

Sorry SN, Blythe is getting no better luck on any of my races.
Beagle: Yeah I reckon Van Impe would have made that lead group as well if he didn't crash, nethertheless he was the only pokerstars rider not in the first 20 there! It will be interesting to see how the cobbled situation develops next season! |
