I'll be honest that is the most boring race I've watched all season

1 2 5 8 11 15 and I had Martin as well!! If only he'd stayed on his wheels I could have won this one! And I need some new sunglasses!

Still, been better in the last few classics after a terrible start!

1st and 3rd in Podium game.

I got 6 in top 20 in each.
Stand 1,2,8,11,12,20
Purist 1,2,6,8,11,20
Bugger forgot i didnt have pozzo cause he was at trentino...lol
Denifl up 2 spots on last year
I did see 2 very good rides for tour de romandie.....Local team riders for IAM Mathais Frank and Reichenbach(yth jersey contender)

Plus point for me....upto 19th in the fs overall and haven't got to my GT goals yet

44th on stage and if Dan Martin had stayed upright I would have probably won

15th on stage for purist, shame I went J-Rod, any other of my usual choices, Moreno or slagter would have seen me top 10. All in all satisfied with that

19th and had dan martin

You gotta feel for Dan Martin - was it a pedal strike? Looked like it.
We've all been there, although with me it was at a still half - asleep 5.30 ride to the station on my Brompton and I stayed on.

Bummer.

Did anyone else fall off on this oil?

Watching it , it looked nothing like a pedal strike

The front wheel slid out from under him as he was out the saddle on a turn ...my initial thoughts were gravel but if he says oil it's just as probable

Gerrans has the biggest heart of any aussie we have turned out since Phil "the animal " Anderson...

DENIFL....GO SON lol

Not seeing gerrans at all anywhere:( Frank is still there surely gerro is .
FINALLYhe gets a mention, here he comes.............took mollem out for gerrans and kwai for him in other

What happened to Betancur? I wish Road.cc could email is when some top riders don't start so we can change our team!

Cheers, I was out saving a guys life and only caught it was around 80km left.

Yeah looks like it Gkam, cyclingnews had the break over 11mins ahead with 118km of the race left.

Was Marco Minnaard in the break at half way?

Just to state this now..

Froome and Betancur did not start, so are not eligible for any team bonus points, even if Sky or AG2R win

Costa out
J-Rod out

That AG2R will be out aswell, shunted off the road by a car...

My team to win...

Daniel Martin (GRS)
Philippe Gilbert (BMC)
Michael Albasini (OGE)
Wout Poels (OPQ)
Jelle Vanendert (LTB)
Tom Jelte Slagter (GRS)
Nathan Earle (SKY)
Jerome Baugnies (WGG)
