Yeah, that should be good! Thanks! I can't imagine the emotions going through that man and his team! 1st sticking with the break, then holding on to the Boonen, Boassen Hagen, Van Marcke and Stannard train! Then holding off off Boonen and Stannard! Good for him! It was amazing!

I think he really spoiled everyone's tactics today! Boonen must be frazzled... to come so close!... I do think he was boxed in by Stannard, but was it his own fault by taking the lead when they came in the velodrome, and then settling in directly behind Hayman?  I bet he wish he could have that one back! I'm sad for Boonen but thrilled by the surprise factor of having Hayman in there to begin with! No breakaway points today, right?...  Can you imagine getting 60 points for having Hayman in today?  1 I wonder if anyone did?... laugh Good race!  1

Race of the season. And that's without rain, wind, echelons etc.

I'm really torn about this 10 rider rule for scoring on breakaways...  I'm not following the livestream yet, but according to cyclingnews.com by the time we get to midpoint, it might be a 13 rider breakaway... indecision On one hand, that means that all scoring riders might come just from the Top 20  , but it's such an achievement to be in the break that if I had it my way, I'd award at least 5 points to all these brave souls...

Robaix? Is that your clever way of making sure Specialized don't send their lawyers after you?
