The Classics ( spoilers !)

[User169]

Dream podium: MvdP, Degenkolb, WvA

Prediction: Sagan, Stybar, Terpstra

Sagan has looked a little undercooked so far, but I think he's trying to get to the Ronde right on time and then keep going to LBL.

Hope it's as good as GW and not quite as chaotic as DdV.

Valgren seems very frustrated, as does Rowe, maybe that will translate. Rowe has the stamina as well as the power. Naessen has also been threatening.

Allways fancied Rowe for a classic.I have a cunning plan,I'm not going to have any sort of money on him and maybe he'll win one.Cause I'm out of pocket Luke !
Second thoughts....50p e/w

Naesen,Van Aert, Rowe.

Naesen has bronchitis.

Flanders this weekend....who will you put your money on, Sagan has to be in with a shout , Bob Jungles looked good today at dwars door vlaanderen, and if I had to pick a third I would go for Stybar, ...so come on who do you think ….

Where "looked good" means "gapped easily in the sprint"?

I'm a sucker so I'll pick MvdP to surprise people by adding it to his DdV win.

Yea I see him more of a beer man,non of that poncey champagne !
He is riding isn't he ?

Maybe Lampaert for the podium, Van Avermaet and Sagan look strong, but I'd love to see a dual between MvdP and WvA

No, if i meant that then i would have said that, he knew he couldnt win the sprint hence trying a couple of times to drop mvdp in the last few km as i said above

I'd agree, he's looks awesome, the stint he put in at E3 was epic. I think he can be excused not having a sprint against MvdP at Dwars.

Dunno who's going to win but i bet you all a million dollars that it won't be Sagan.
I hope MvdP but maybe put a tenner on Stybar.

Does the Tour of Flanders clash with the Ronde van Vlaanderen again?
