    Arenberg not as selective as normal.. How many QS boys in the peleton? Nasty move ahead with tankink ballan and flecha
  • Big move there, Ballan, Flecha, Tankink and Jimmy Caspar attack...

    Agree GoldenGraham, the live British Eurosport 1 coverage only just started at 13:23 (13 mins late to schedule) thus missing the eventful Trouée d'Arenberg Section - well miffed as I had to watch it on a poor quality stream.

    Nothing really happened in the Arenberg though

    Boonen's feeling good. Happy to rip it up in the crosswind with 60km to go.
  • Brainfar?t from Thor there... reckon he'll get back on

  • Two QS riders up front? Schoolboy from the other teams...


    Terpstra dropped though. By his leader. Is Tom Boonen about to Merckx this?

    Iam not sure boonen can do this. Sky have four riders (guessing flecha, ebh, hayman/stannard and eisel) and I think this plays into their hands. Remember how they got ebh back in the boonen split at Flanders even though he couldn't keep with them on the final climb Sky with eisel leading the chase groups are very strong at the mo

    If you could bet in running, I'd have my house on Flecha winning this.

    Boonen will blow himself out.
  • I think Boonen can do this... there's some definite panic behind and I don't think sky have the riders to stop him getting more time over Mons and Carrefour
