Re:
Yes he certainly did.
Thought Paolini looked shot with a few km to go. Then he goes and churns over top gear for the win! :shock:
I imagine Wilfrid Peeters was pulling his hair out after the finish, which wouldn't take long by the looks of him!
Wiggins packed with a couple of hours to go I think.
Did you see the Cannondale rider throw his bike away at the feed? His own fault, trying to take his gilet off and getting it caught in the rear wheel :facepalm:
I bet he had to ride to the finish!

Re:
What a race.
G clearly the strongest man again today, and looking great for Flanders. Only trouble is, the others knew it, and left him to chase down every late move, with Paolini getting away the one time he waited for someone else. A well-deserved win for Luca though, for once not having to work his socks off for Kristoff.
Wigans called it a day before half way, around when a few riders got blown into a ditch. I'll say nothing more on his P-R aspirations. : )
Yeah, nice throw from Jack Bauer - must've been watching the ones by his former team-mate, Saint Dave Millar, to do that.

Re:
There was a very windy section, I was worried and I was on the sofa! :shock: :facepalm:
Why they didn't use conventional rims though , is beyond me. Any rims with depth was always going to be a problem.
Still think legwarmers over shorts looks wrong! Along with facial hair, and overshoes that are nothing like team colours!
Maybe Cannondale will use the pic, with the slogan, ' Look how light/strong our bikes are!'
