Kwiatkowski...

Postby kfjatek » 08 Mar 2014 17:39

Can't wait to see him in the big ones this season.

Two weeks ago he put Contador & Rui Costa to shame in 5-stage Volta ao Algarve, and today this: http://velonews.competitor.com/2014/03/ ... gan_319153

Nice to know someone with my surname is a *proper* cyclist... ;-)

Up to this point I thought you were talking about Poland.

I know you are feeling confident with how things are going...

Lol. I may feel as confident as I like, but the guy who's going with us and taking Woody's place will be at his fourth beer at the finish line by the time I get there. :-)

Been watching Kwiatkowski over the winter months (FB, Strava, etc.); he's put in an awful lot of work to prepare for the season - so glad it's paying off.

I've steered clear of Twitter all day to avoid seeing the result. Lesson learned, avoid the forum too in future...

Just caught up with the race - cracking finish by Kwiatkowski, he judged that to perfection.

Looked like Sagan had nothing left to respond with.

Incredible timing and power. Was he just cruising behind Sagan until he saw him weaken? Then that devastating, explosive acceleration up the last part of the climb.

One to watch.
I had fun once. It was awful.

Let's see how he does in Tireno-Adriatico (yes Bopo, that's the race that's on this week) - OPQS have dual leadership in the race, with Uran & Kwiatkowski hoping for GC, plus a couple of sprint finishes for Cav and the individual TT for Martin.

Thinking about it now, blimey - they do look like the team to beat this season. (just smashed the TTT today, btw)
