  • Also, that was an excellent race. As good as last years from what I saw (dropping in and out while doing some work, but there always seemed to be racing on). Final 20k was terrific.

  • I thought it was rather boring, as the Kemmelberg is so far from the finish and the selection is made not so much on the climb as on the narrow, twisty descent. I would have preferred closer action on the run-in, but Boonen and co. seemed to have done too much work early on. It was odd that Cancellara misjudged the finale like this, but he may not have had enough left. I suppose if you were rooting for Sagan you would have found this exciting, but I don't. My favourite out of that group would have been Vanmarcke, but I don't think he really had a chance to get away from Cancellara earlier and obviously no chance of winning the sprint.

  • Today was good but not a patch on last year. Last year's GW was excellent - maybe the best race i've watched of any format.
