dcro 10,182 Posted July 25, 2021 #132 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Wait, these other nations are actually trying to beat the Dutch today or something? The commentator was talking about German strategy and it got me puzzled. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The commentator was talking about German strategy and it got me puzzled. You have to try something very unusual to beat this Dutch team, unless the Dutch start riding against themselves. Luckily with Van der Breggen and Vollering they do actually have a regular team duo, but for example Van der Breggen and Van Vleuten are in no way expected to help each other If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

heywoodu 13,560 Posted July 25, 2021 #136 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Easy to see the Netherlands is the main country in women's cycling, as our co-commentator (a cyclist) just gave us an explanation of how to bring back a lead group: "If you're pulling in the peloton and you go faster than the lead group, you will gain time."

heywoodu 13,560 Posted July 25, 2021 #138 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Norsgaard crashes and teammate Van Vleuten falls down right over her bike. Van Vleuten seems to be fine, Norsgaard as well hopefully (but didn't see her yet).

heywoodu 13,560 Posted July 25, 2021 #140 Share Posted July 25, 2021 Much earlier attack than expected by, in this case, Vollering. Assuming the plan is to be a 'springboard' for Van der Breggen.
