Hoste went from 150 meters today. Normally that's not too far out. Fly

No he didn't. He went from more than 200m.

No he didn't.

Yes he did. Watch the footage instead of reading reports. I can
easily send you a frozen image that prooves it all.


Dumbass -

I should believe you instead of them?


ofcourse. I have it on tape.

Hahahaha!

BTW, going from 200m in an uphill is even bigger tactical miscue.

thanks,

I completely agree on this tactical miscue.

Ballan was controlling it all the way - another 50m and he would have
led it out and Hoste would not have got round him. Excellent ride by
Ballan all the way in from the Muur.


Hmm, it does look closer to 200 than 150. Oh well. It wasn't easy to
tell on the day. Especially from where I was sitting :-)

Alessandro Ballan (Lampre) pulled the last ounces of strength out of
his tired legs to come by Leif Hoste (Predictor-Lotto) in the closing
metres to win the Tour of Flanders. The Italian looked like he was
heading for another second place with Hoste glued to his wheel for the
final kilometre and a half. But when Hoste powered past with 150m to
go, Ballan managed to get behind the Belgian. Incredibly, he had
enough to go again in the last 20m to win by a wheel from the
disappointed Hoste.

The duo went full-gas and fairly traded pulls over the final 16
kilometres from the Muur. Ballan was forced to lead over the final
kilometre, where the two went increasing slower while the chase closed
in at only a few seconds. At 150 metres, Hoste opened up his sprint on
Ballan's left, thinking he had enough to hold it to the line. But the
1.90m tall rider that usually leads out for Daniele Bennati kept on
his rival's wheel, finally coming around in the ten metres to steal
glory.

Dear dumbasseroni - You lead with Dumbass and Jackass and provide the
above as your backing?

20 meters Tip - If Ballan crashed with 50 to go Hoste may have won,
everything else is but errant jizz in your quest for RBR love.
