Well the race was not very good, total anarchy. Daughters of anarchy.
The teams were not organized that well....anyway it is a step in the right direction for women cycling, would be awesome if a women TdF could be shown on the television during the mens TdF, so 2 stages in a day.
Maybe we should have a game named Pcmdailys most beautiful female cyclist  just to know who to cheer on
Present:
Tinkoff-Saxo - AG2R - Colombian riders
Past:
Francisco Mancebo - Illes balears - Carlos Sastre - Kelme - Robbie McEwen

You mean 0 riders
After all there is a reason why men and women dont compete together. |

All depends on the parcours but I think she could hang on in some of the Conti races, winning is a different thing but she is a beast so I don't doubt she would beat some of the guys home

Vos-Wild looked something like Contador-Boonen - dunno where Vos' power came from haha. I wonder if Bardet will have a dig on the Champs to make up for yesterday's agony? |

If you want the maximum cheering in terms of results, riding AND beauty, I guess Emma Johansson is the best choice to cheer for.

It also depends on physical strength and here men and women are different. But it would be fun to Vos compete against Kittel, Cavendish, Martin, Sagan for kicks 
lol i would pay good money to see that. |

well surely not 0. personally I think that she would be a third tier sprinter (like Van Poppel, Feillu, Petit) and a fourth/fifth tier climber (like Feillu, Huzarski, Chavanel)
perhaps we could compare the data from today's sprint together and climbs that both pelotons have done, otherwise no good comparisement can be made.
although she did enter the Amstel Curacao Race in november 2012. Niki Terpstra won there and she finished 12th with a 1'02" gap. not sure on that profile though

Not sure if the Amstel Curaçao Race is comparable, given there's still a men and women competition, I think.
2nd best woman got 21th, so I guess Vos was more focussed on beating the other women than beating the men. Not sure though, don't know the race good enough.

You can see some of the differences here between men and women
And if this is true, i have to admit that Vos is a beast but there is no info on how they tested it compared to the men. But if its the same its impressive.

I don't really trust those kind of test because I once tested a max power of 5.01 W/kg, which is for someone that isn't even part of a cycling club pretty unbelievable if I say so myself.
