While i'm all the women in pro cycling it does kind of explain why it doesnt get the attention that they moan about when it comes to being level with the mens.
There is no way that that would have happened in the mens race it was just down right amateurish. I've seen better tactics and know how in a cat 3 local crit.
I don't know how no one in the Dutch camp was aware and relayed it to the riders through the feed zone or via the car. Surely they've dropped back at some point in that last period.
Wouldn't say it wouldn't ever happen, some of the previous tour of Britains have done the same. You take away the radios and it causes carnage because they're so reliant on them. Makes it much more interesting!

Some reports on twitter suggesting a ramp was removed since training?

That's pretty poor form if true although everyone else seemed to cope I guess.

Every other rider seemed well aware. Either poor prep or a lapse of concentration.

On an unrelated note, what is the point of draft legal triathlon, you might as well just run a 10k?!
Yep, and sounds as though it was discussed prior with the team, he'd been rolling it in practise which is surprising for a man of his capabilities.

Apparently all teams had been told the board was being removed. Comments of further evidence of a poor setup with the Dutch after what I hear was a mess of a women's road race for them.
As much as the Dutch riders are moaning about lack of radios being the reason I think part of it deep down is arrogance because they have been so dominant for so long they just assume they're stronger than everyone else out there!
Missed the tts this morning but seen the results. That is some ride by Roglic! With those climbs the course did suit him against those other pure tters! But to put that much time in to everyone is impressive!

I don't know if it fits here, but I really enjoyed the BMX racing this morning. A shame we couldn't make it two Golds, but still great achievements from the GB BMX team.
Hardly surprising to see Sam Bennett going back to bora, worlds worst kept secret. Lefevres comments once again showing he's a neanderthal! The guy is a grade a idiot.
Sagan to total is an interesting move to see what else they do to support him, obviously got a lot of money to spend with Totals backing. Will bora stay on specialized? As sagan has taken them with him it seems.

Ganna engaging beast mode to bring in Italian gold and the world record!
Amazing ride! When we went off the front at 1.25k it went from 0.4 to the good to being a second down, then he gets back on with 750 to go and a second down and works it back, absolute beast! So glad to see them win over the Danes after that guys outburst yesterday!
That was a awesome ride by Ganna, I was cheering the TV when the hammer went down, bloody brilliant
