Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Flanders - Race Photos

08-04-2010 10:13pm#1We staked ourselves out on the Koppenberg.
The riders come from here
And go up here
Riding across this stuff
And, in specific, this bit right in front of me
The TV cameras were out
So were the photographers. This guy had claimed this tree for himself.
I spied this pair walking through the field. Spare wheels for Team Sky.
Lots of Flanders flags around
Lots of people too
Tree people
Some bikes for Cancellara and Breschel
The photographer gains some friends

Neutral Service
A rider appears
It's Skil Shimano!
He's followed by Caisse dePagne and Vascon Soleil
Our tanned friend is working hard.
Katusha arrive with their odd Lazer aero covers
And off the break goes
What's this? Everyone looks excited. Which rider could possibly cause such excitement, in Belgium, on the Koppenberg?
Breschel knows who it is
Yes, you guessed it: BOONEN! Breshel looks comfortable.
That girl seems pretty happy to see him. So does her boyfriend on the right. Man crush.
Definitely a man crush.
Is that Nuyens or Boom?
A cobbles bike on cobbles! Go, Gilbert. Flecha looks on.

It's hard to miss George, but I did, and only saw him when I looked back through my photos. That's Cancellara's butt.
There goes Leif Hoste. \o/
It's definitely not easy.
Ballan's head.
Skinny!
Cervelo and Quickstep.
Now there is hard effort. My personal favourite.
Chavanel.
Radioshack. The gear is minging in real life too.
More Quickstep.
Cav approaches.
He doesn't stop for a chat no matter how much I scream his name.
You can see a BBox rider had dismounted
He jumps back on with ease.
And pedals away.

Garmin
The German Road Champion.
Looks like Greg Henderson.
This rider looks a bit cooked.
More odd Lazer helmet thing.
Popovych, I think.
The Portugese road champion had ran for a bit.
He got back on no problem.
A bit of Rabbobank action.
This guy looked to be totally zoned out.
Nice tan.
Cancellara's and Breschel's bikes head off.
Awful overshoes.
And just like that, they were all gone. Everyone started to walk back up the road. The Koppenberg was wedged, and it was a slow plod back up.
Then a shout goes out, and the crowd of people parted. A dropped rider was making his way through. He got a good cheer from the crowd.
There are tonnes more here, some good, some bad. Those were just a selection.0 -
