2012 Pro-cycling season thread

^ They were talking about the average speed in the coverage - it's crazy when you consider the winds and that some of the roads were really bad! Made for quite entertaining watching though.

People shouldn't be allowed to ride bikes that fast.

Tour of Qatar is super flat, but still... oof.

It was amazing when Cancerllara went..

This race has the top classics riders in the world going flat out to get some speed in their legs. Is it any surprise, therefore, that the average speed is high?

I'm not surprised at all. More in awe..

It's Cavendish again!

Made it look easy too, the last few kms were good viewing.

it's like they were on drugs or something..

Cav has his first crash of the season: claims he could have won when climbing back on.

Eisel: 'it doesn't matter'

^ what a dude.

So we beat the average speed of stage 4. 51kph average today for 120km!! .....

Jon Tiernan-Locke dropped everyone and won Tour Mediterranean on the final stage. Monster.

Pretty awesome effort that.

6 stages won by Brits in a week and a bit?

Yep. Does that make GB most successful nation so far this season? Early days obviously, but nice to see less heralded riders and teams picking up wins in some of the early season tune ups.
