We had not left it yet, but when I would wake in the night, I would lie, listening, homesick for it already.

Thought people would try more on the run-in there. Lots of second-tier sprinters overrating their chances against Wout with a teammate.

I don't think those even are the fancy new barricades. Also if he does that move like a second earlier, the guy slams into the pointy end of the barricades. I wouldn't complain about a ban here tbh

Yeah his last attempt was at 320watts I think and that was to try and dip under 7. I don't think anyone gets near that time for a long while.

Good women's Dwars door vlanderen. Big group just never worked together even though there were teams with multiple members in it and allowed a pair to dangle at 15-20 seconds ahead till the end.

The only two people to work in that entire G2 were Longo Borghini and Cordon-Ragot, and they paid with their lives.

I don't normally mind Carlton Kirby, but in the space of about two minutes he decided that jamming your brakes on at the front of the pelaton wasn't as dangerous as giving them a nudge with your shoulder afterwards, and then started talking about the optimum weather conditions for hot air ballooning so I think I'll wait until RvV gets to the business end
