Hey everyone!

I'm in the airplane right now, going to Canada for the two Canadian Classics.
Just a quick post to update you on the Vuelta!

Final Classification

Looks like De Gendt wrote some history. He takes Giro - Vuelta, I took Tour de France.

I'm not entirely sure, but I can guess our two new sponsors can be quite happy with the team this year, right?

Another reason to celebrate!

Henry

Yes, a win for Boonen (sorry I'm a big fan Wink )
But Henry did good with the 2nd place, still in front of Sagan Smile

Nice vuelta win for De Gendt Grin

Almost another win in France Wink

Well, I find Henry look better in his French champion jersey than in yellow... No choice, you need to keep it for next year :lol:

WTF with Becca's father???

Oh and by the way BananaBananaBanana
1 for each GT you won this year Grin

Wow, quite some dominance by taking all 3 GTs. Not even a little sign of mercy? Wink
Two nice stages. Boonen with some nice action, Henry outsprinting Sagan and shame that Stybar missed out on Vattenfall (Stybar <3 )

Henry <3
Stybar <3

And for personal reasons.
Boonen <3

VoetsT - No worry, I like Boonen as well Pfft

duxili - Yeah, I love that jersey so much I'm afraid I'll have to win it each year to stay happy Grin

FonsDeSpons - Looks more and more like it! This year we've won Paris - Nice, Tirreno - Adriatico, Tour de Romandie and the 3 Grand Tours. Quite dominating, indeed Smile

Shonak - No mercy at all Pfft with De Gendt and Vergnaud the team has the best time trialist and the best climber. Stybar was almost rewarded for his attacking style, but just missed out.

Faillu - I couldn't agree more about that!

sutty68 - I don't hear them complaining Grin

welker3257 - Spot on. He's a tank. So much body and strength, nobody dares to take him on. I think if he wants to ride the Tour next year, I'm not sure who the team will prefer; him or Henry.


Thanks guys!
Today I have a little less time. Next update will be fairly late, as in later than dinner time.
See you then, for the Canadian Classics Smile

Somehow failed to see this, but De Gendt taking the Vuelta is great, as is Dan Martin coming home in second. Banana

sutty68 - Yes indeed. A new victory would be nice Smile

Dippofix - Martin even took the lead for a stage or 3, but De Gendt conquered all in the end Pfft

The Wedding Crashers - Part VII
"Here, honey, sit down a bit."
"I don't want to sit down."

Erik shuffled closer. He was looking like Becca must've felt: like hell.
"Rebecca, let me expl -"
"I think you should go, man," I said, more bravely than I felt.

He looked right at me.
"Who the hell are you, boy?"


GP de Quebec
i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/quebec01_zps8b2976b1.jpg
There's a heat wave in Canada. 34°C, I don't think anybody expected it to be this warm here.

The Race
Pinotti went into the break of the day, quite enjoying himself.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/quebec02_zps533fcfb0.jpg

Unfortunately it was a closed race. Only in the final lap, I opened the battle of the favorites. Poels did the heavy work.

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/quebec03_zps6434c328.jpg

We kept off the peloton and sprinted for the victory. I had great legs!

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/quebec04_zps8d4676ec.jpg

But coming fresh out of the Vuelta, Dan Martin takes this win. I'm second. Again. First the Amstel Gold Race, then Plouay. But I'm not complaining, at least I won the Tour!

i1322.photobucket.com/albums/u569/IanButlerPCM2/quebec05_zpsd15d404b.jpg

All in all a good day. Keeping my eye on the World Championships, things are looking good.

Jakstar22 - Thanks, Jak Smile


Well, the pace has dropped. Maybe a bit too slow for my liking, but I can't help it.
With the reports for EPIC and my sister's baptism Sunday, I don't reckon I'll go very fast in the near future. (except maybe Saturday).
I also have 3 tough days Wednesday through next Friday.
Though I'm hoping to race the WC tomorrow or tonight, so keep tuned!

Good race there in Canada
But a question, what is "The Wedding Crashers". I'm not following this story that long, and I think I missed the start of it :/
