SPR Apr 2015 3:42pm, 12 Apr 2015 20,038 posts	0 SPR 10-1 was available yesterday! oddschecker.com
JohnnyO Apr 2015 3:46pm, 12 Apr 2015 17,890 posts	0 JohnnyO I suppose some of that 10 is the pure chance aspect of P-R. I am surprised at how he won (catching the break, not out-sprinting them).
Chrisull Apr 2015 3:49pm, 12 Apr 2015 7,079 posts	0 Chrisull Luke Rowe 8th I see, and not Wiggins as the commentators seemed to indicate.
Dai Bank Apr 2015 4:49pm, 12 Apr 2015 4,085 posts	0 Dai Bank Great call this morning SPR, pleased for Dege after using de Backer(sp?) to bridge across. Delighted for Luke, remember him as a youngster on the back of the tandem with his dad doing sprint training at Marshfield some years ago. Even I could see that Wiggo had black overshoes on so how Hatch could mistake someone wearing white overshoes I know not.
Dai Bank Apr 2015 5:09pm, 14 Apr 2015 4,087 posts	0 Dai Bank So we have Brabanconne tomorrow, via cyclingfans I expect, GP Denain on thursday, on Eurosport and then Amstel sunday, again on Eurosport. SNCF, the french railway operator are seriously upset at all the cyclists going through and around the lights and barriers at a level crossing last sunday at P-R. 1 or 2 in the top 20 may have a problem despite the Comms saying no DQs. this is going to run and run if the UCI don't get a grip quickly.
SPR Apr 2015 8:59pm, 14 Apr 2015 20,040 posts	0 SPR The rule says that they should have been disqualified AS WELL AS facing punishment under legal system. Inrng tweeted this during the race, and has blogged about it today. inrng.com
SPR Apr 2015 9:53pm, 14 Apr 2015 20,041 posts	0 SPR U23 Tour of Flanders had the same issue this weekend as well: https://youtu.be/qG8ExPQwFFc
Shortcut Cam Apr 2015 9:30pm, 15 Apr 2015 285 posts	0 Shortcut Cam Level crossings grind my gears. But that first photograph is shocking.
Dai Bank Apr 2015 1:00pm, 17 Apr 2015 4,092 posts	0 Dai Bank Ok time for Amstel Gold, can't see further than Phil Gil for this race-again! Only buy the comic at this time of the year to see what little they have to say about Flanders and Roubaix but stymied as Cycling Weekly seems not to have reached my part of South Wales at all, or at least in the 4 outlets that I have tried so far since yesterday morning. I know that I could read their site but I'm still a paper and book reader mainly. Anyone had problems with delivery this week if they subscribe?
MudMeanderer Apr 2015 1:03pm, 17 Apr 2015 1,518 posts	0 MudMeanderer No problem here - it arrived yesterday, but I'm rather remote from you being in Yorkshire. Maybe Luke Rowe's friends and family have snatched up all the copies!
