    I think that the tracking algorithm links cyclists with ads for women looking for luurv. I'm pretty sure I never searched for well-upholstered middle aged women in my local grotty town.

    OK... OPQS helmets - Cav and Boonen in aero versions, Chav and Terpstra not. Why?
    Personal choice (style)?
    Aero benefit significant only in sprint (i.e. speed is a factor of drag)?

    They only have two helmets in the team and they will take turns throughout the year to have it for a few days each :lol::lol:

    I thought OPQS were rubbish and Cav was floundering there.

    Keep up the updates chaps. No live feed working for me.

    1km - Sagan in second place... not good position. Chav is 7th in line.

    Chav had a go from group of 10. Reeled back.
    They only have a 13 sec gap to peloton with 2km to go...

    Sagan is the greatest cyclist ever.

    That sounded great, can't wait to watch when I get home.

    Kristoff leads out.... Demare has to touch Sagan to make him keep the line... Sagan confirmed as winner but it was down to the photo

    Demare would have had him, had to take hand from bars to fend Sagan off. Tight photo finish even then.
