    Fabian on the front of a group pulling along with no help from the other 8/9 rider.

    They have nearly caught the Haussler group

    I think Fabian will attack again soon as he is getting no help. 28 Km to go

    Well every time the camera is on the group it's always Fabian on the front pulling it along. Fabians group about 10 secs behind Haussler/O'Grady group

    Without radio, O'Grady has enough sense to wait for Canc coming up...

    Terpstra getting irritating with his fellow escapees who won't work with him.

    All together now, I give it a few Km's before Fabian decides to go.

    Cross wind when tankink attacks and canc chases - tankink gets cramp trying to get in Canc's wheel.

    Terpstra seems the strongest in the chasing group, but not enough

    The Cancellara train. One seat only. Concorde versus a bunch of Jumbos.
    Plain ridiculous.

    Fabian has a 50 sec lead with 10 Km to go. Haussler attacks the chasing group

    Yet another race that Cancellara wins after a bike change. Hmm.

    3 Km to go, Fabian has a minute lead, looks like it will be a sprint for second

    That was almost an exciting race for a while. Cancellara is amazing but when he goes like that it kills the race stone dead.

    Pfft, when Canc first went he was over 1min40 behind over 20 guys....

    Think this Flanders might be a little one-sided...

    Indeed. If that happens at Flanders or Roubaix, I might just go and sort the garden out instead.
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.
