    Samyn was a proper example of planning and tactis from QuickStep floors…. Cracking ride by them.

    Felt really sorry for Gaudin, not that i thoguth he’d beat either of them in a sprint anyway, but he must have seen Terpstra go, looked at Gilbert and thought “Oh…. right, i see”

    Yes they were strong and got it right, always worth enjoying this though for when it doesn’t go to plan 🙂

    Ohhh what a fab course, that’s bumpy. With the weather looking cool and damp we might get pics of grubby faces and splattered backs.

    If Mr Fabulous was still riding it looks like a course for him, now though I reckon it’s a proper hard mans course and who could dismiss Sagan.

    Hmmm.. flight to Pisa, rent a scooter…

    I’ll go for a win double of kwiatkoski and deignan (the latter is definitely heart over head as van der B is already flying)

    Easyjet cancelled my flight to Pisa today so no riding the Strade Bianche for me this weekend 🙁

    On the upside, it might be a more bianche race than usual so I’ll watch it somewhere warm with some beers.

    I think WvE will crack, not sure if he has that long distance endurance yet.. I suppose he did sandbag his way through the CX season so maybe his training now is taking him onto the road..

    But nah.

    Kwiato? Could be, he was out on the reccie yesterday.. but I think his season come later in the year.

    Van Aert is a bit chubby (for a pro) isn’t he? I guess CX doesn’t reward losing all your bodyfat for the shorter races in the same way 1-3 weeks tours do

    Not often you see Pro’s grinding away like that. Thats how I ride every hill!

    Can only assume I would have been walking some time back.
