  • Tour De France - 11
    Biomatematický model BMM: Tour de France - 11. etapa Na programu jubilejní 100 Tour de France chyběl klasický prolog a tak jsme vhodnou trať pro BMM museli počkat až do 11. etapy, kdy přišla na řadu první individuální časovka. Náročnost 33km dlouhé trati notně zvyšoval silný vítr, se kterým se všichni závodníci potýkali. Hned v úvodu nasadil nepřekonatelnou laťku favorizovaný Tony Martin (Omega Pharma-Quick step), se kterým vyrovnanou partii sehrál jen žlutý Chris Froome (Sky Procycling), výrazně tím navyšující své celkové vedení. Mezi ostatními jezdci top 10 to byla vyrovnaná bitva. Roman Kreuziger (Team Saxo-Tinkoff) zajel výborně a udržel celkové 5. místo a samozřejmě velmi emotivním zážitkem pro všechny byla ostrá jízda paralympika Jirky Ježka v roli oficiálního předjezdce. Jak se mezi špalíry diváků dařilo na trati jezdcům v programu BMM? Vítr nám dal zabrat, co?

So when it comes to the sport of professional cycling, why aren't women receiving half the road? Directed by pro cyclist Kathryn Bertine, HALF THE ROAD: The Passion, Pitfalls & Power of Women's Professional Cycling explores the world of women's professional cycling, focusing on both the love of sport and the pressing issues of inequality that modern-day female athletes face in male dominated sports. With footage from some of the world's best races to interviews with Olympians, World Champions, rookies, coaches, officials, doctors and family members, HALF THE ROAD offers a unique insight to the drive, dedication, and passion it takes for a female cyclist to thrive. Included as well are notable women who have achieved inroads in other endurance sports, such as Kathrine Switzer, the first woman to official register (as "K.V. Switzer") and run the all-male Boston Marathon in 1967; the iconic photo of her being attacked by a race official was listed by Time-Life as among its "100 Photographs that Changed the World."

    91st SCHELDEPRIJS April 16 Robbie McEwen, Tom Boonen, Jaan Kirsipuu and…Frank Vandenbroucke: all those cycling stars are at the start of the race. 163 riders participate in the event. Several riders try to go in the break but nobody is able to increase the gap till four riders: De Weert, Lauder, Scanlon and Koerts attack and hold a certain advantage. Koerts is dropped when the riders enter Schoten, with two laps left to go. Servais Knaven is the next one to break but he is caught too. It is then Ludovic Capelle’s turn to go. This attack is the good one and thanks to his friend Kirsipuu’s good job, who perfectly controls the pack, he wins the race. Kirsipuu finishes the race in 2nd place.

  • 97Th SCHELDEPRIJS April 15
    97th SCHELDEPRIJS April 15 164 riders are present at the Antwerp Great Market Square for the 97th Scheldeprijs. A few days after he won for the third time in Roubaix, Tom Boonen was the big attraction on Antwerp Great Square. Mark Cavendish was not present at the start and as a consequence Tom was the only rider able to reach Oellibrandt’s record. Bernucci, Pronk, Brutt and Louder formed the traditional early breakaway and the maximum gap between the four breakers and the bunch reached 6’56”. A first crash involving Ciolek and Haussler amongst other riders took place at 40 km from the finishing line. At the entrance of the last local lap, the four leaders still had an advantage of 1’07”. Knaven and Hammond counterattacked but at 4 km from the line, the bunch was packed together again. Van Avermaet launched his sprint too early and Petacchi, without his teammates’ help, chose the right side of the road to come to the front in a very impressive way. Nothing and nobody was still able to defeat him when a very big massive crash happened just behind him. Robbie McEwen, Tom Boonen, Greg Van Avermaet and many other riders were the victims of that crash and made acquaintance with Churchill Avenue asphalt. Nobody was badly hurt except McEwen who suffered a brain concussion. It may seem incredible but that was Alessandro Petacchi’s first victory on Belgium territory except for Aalst Criterium. PARCOURS Antwerp, Great Market Square (officious start), Schoten (official start), St. Job, Brecht, Wuustwezel, Loenhout, Hoogstraten, Meer, Meerle, Minderhout, Merksplas, Rijkevorsel, Beerse, Lille, Gierle, Lille, Kasterlee, Tielen, Herentals, Vorselaar, Grobbendonk, Zandhoven, Ranst, Schilde, Wijnegem, Schoten (159 km) en drie lokale ronden van 16 km, totaal 207 km.
