  • Why is watching this making me want a massive bowl of moule frites?
  • Quote Harmon: "Stannard and Thomas might be riding for Boasson-Hagan."

    Hummm... Is it just me, or does anyone else think that's arse-about-face on current form?

    Can someone explain to me why Europcar are doing so much work?

    EDIT: Beaten to it.

    I wonder what David Harmon's favourite race of the year is? If only he'd tell us!

    I was watching the 2010 race on You Tube yesterday and he was exactly the same at the start of that :D

    Shelling as many of the favourites teammates so Tommy has a chance of a break?

    Beats me.

    On another thread it mentions about a Europecars guy's handlebars. Is it brakes or gear levers or both (tops of the bars). Sorry if this has been answered already. :)

    Trying to keep the break close so Voeckler can launch a suicide dig on the Koppenberg? That way he can sack it and still be home for tea?

    You just unmasked Kendo Nagasaki???
    Horrific scenes as Katusha pull some circus stunts on a seatpost. At speed.

    Europcar are securing a financial infusion from Saxo, an equipment contract from Cannondale, and lifetime subscriptions to Sky Travel Channel.

    Channel 1002 for me! :p

    It's 41 on our cable. Sorry totally off topic.

    Greipel on the attack.

    Greipel getting in the break so Lotto don't have to pull? Paying back Roelandts maybe. It makes total sense.

    Yeh, but isn't that exactly what Fabian wants, but can't, due to his pathethic team?

    Strange tactics - but good for the race.

    To repeat, they are guaranteeing position for their leaders before the hills. Nothing strange about it. Standard Flanders tactics.
  • Greipel has been marked to holy heaven there.

    Literally, every time a QS or Europcar comes through soft pedalling they're shouting 'marked! '

    My 16yr old Twitter Sister is livid about Harmon and Kelly....particularly about their dissing of Matti Breschel...

    No, that had little to do with positioning.

    Downside of watching a crappy lo-res feed is you can't actually tell when they're on cobbles...

    Greipel hits the front too early like the 2nd stage of de Panne. Becoming a bad habit maybe!! ;D

    Presume Greipel is banking some chips for the later races here...
