Jakstar22
A good race. So close for Boonen. Jan did fantastic
 
juszta
Great job by Jan, it's a shame Boonen could not finish it, but Roelandts was the strongest today Frown
 
Avin Wargunnson
Great job from Jan to support his leader's needs and still finishing in top 20. this is sign of a great rider coming for the future. His brother is a fighter too, but it would be probably better to stay at home with that illness.
I'll be back

Another Great ride from Boonen Wink

And nice to see Jan in the front group Wink
 
ste_18
Great ride for all the team especially for Boonen
 
FreitasPCM
Close call for Boonen, but it has to be said, Jan did a great job. Smile
 
Daggen
BTW i think it will take at least one year for the first pro victory. Maybe six months
 
Ian Butler
Jesleyh: I agree Smile Thanks!

Daggen: The sprint was even more painful to watch, getting closer and closer and then staying at the same distance...

Jakstar22: Thanks!

juszta: Yeah he definitely was the strongest, maybe Boonen will score in Kuurne Smile

Avin Wargunnson: Thanks, they're both fighters on the bike Smile Maybe he'll forfeit K-B-K.

sutty68: It was a great day for him and he was also a bit lucky that he was able to hang on in the front group!

ste_18: Thank you!

FreitasPCM: Thanks for saying Wink

Daggen: I wonder myself. It definitely won't be in a race as this, but maybe in an upcoming race when he can ride for himself Smile
 
PCM rulezz
NOO, so close (but yeah, boonen can even win this race irl Pfft). Hopefully better luck in K-B-K.

Great job from Jan Grin

Do you think they'll ever be good enough to lead the team?
 
JuanMotr
I just can´t understand how good you are in writing... I was like oh man I´m going to sleep I don´t feel like reading it and then I read the first few words and I came here feeling good about how our young gun did one hell of a job for Tom. Smile
keep it up Wink here you have Banana for your writing Grin
 
Ian Butler
PCM rulezz: Yeah, no Vanmarcke but Roelandts here Grin Thanks!

francopell: Jan's potential should make him leader one day, I think. Bart will be a protected rider at the maximum, I think. The youngest one is definitely the most talented one.

JuanMotr: Wow, thanks a lot for that comment! You're too kind, man, thanks a lot Wink Great to have you follow every single story I try to create! Hope this one goes a very long way!

Kuurne - Brussel - Kuurne


The race of today takes us from Kuurne to Brussel and back. There aren't too many cobbles so big sprinters like Cavendish appear at the start of this prestigious race.

i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh490/IanButlerPCM/ku01.jpg


i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh490/IanButlerPCM/Jan.jpg


When I first saw Tom this morning, he asked me how I felt today. I said I was quite all right, and I'd try my best again today. "Good, because you're leading me out again today."

I couldn't believe it. I'd heard he's a great guy, his support is very important to me. Then came the bad news that Bart stayed in bed, he wouldn't be racing today. We had no one who could fall in for him so we started with 7 riders this morning.

My fellow cyclo-cross team mate Stybar managed to breakaway today.

i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh490/IanButlerPCM/ku02.jpg


The peloton stayed moretheless together so Sylvain Chavanel blew the lid off the pack on the last (rather long) cobbled section.

i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh490/IanButlerPCM/ku03.jpg


The plan worked and sprinters as Greipel and Cavendish lost touch with the peloton.

i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh490/IanButlerPCM/ku04.jpg


And then it was up to us again. Stybar, Terpstra, Chavanel, me and Boonen.

i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh490/IanButlerPCM/ku05.jpg


Finally, after a nervous couple of kilometers, I launched the sprint!

i1248.photobucket.com/albums/hh490/IanButlerPCM/ku11.jpg


Oh sweet lord! I finish 2nd! I couldn't believe it, no one passed me after Tom did! It was just the perfect ending of a perfect race. It had everything I crave: cobblestones, lots of rain, slippery narrow roads and finally a finishing sprint with a minor group. Tornado Tom proved to be the greatest classics rider the world's ever seen and I raced myself into the picture!

During the podium ceremony, Tom said only one thing to me, one sentence that meant more to me than an entire book could: "One day, this place will be yours."

I'm just blown away, ecstatic, amazed! I've to go now, I'm throwing one hell of a party for some of my friends! Booze up!

I'm very proud of him. He just had the perfect day and got himself some local fame. Though I hope he doesn't let this race affect his training and mentality. It's not because you finish 2nd here, you're in. He still has lots of things to learn. But today that doesn't matter. The victory of Tom matters, and Jantje's contribution to that!
 
Avin Wargunnson
Wow, Boonen once again unbeatable and Jan second, fantastic. Even more because he has beaten that Slovakian talented guy, now that is something!
Pfft
I'll be back
 
sutty68
What a Great performance from Jan :lol:

Boonen wins again and Chavanel gets fourth, What a totally dominant performance from the Team Wink
 
ste_18
Great performance for Jan and for the entire team as well, Boonen seems to be in a very good shape

Perfect race for Jan and Tom! They are in really good shape! Banana
 
Jesleyh
Wow, that's a great result!
I think Boonen is right, Jan will have that place one day Wink

Avin Wargunnson: Indeed, beating Sagan is something worth mentioning! It was a great day (I think you can guess his daily form Pfft)

sutty68: Omega Pharma - Quickstep at its best Wink a bit like 2012 irl Grin

ste_18: Yeah, he's on track for a great season! Thanks!

juszta: Thanks a lot Grin

Jesleyh: I hope so, it's his kind of race, that's for sure Smile

PCM rulezz: Couldn't agree more Grin Thanks! Boonen really with a powerful finish sprint!
