Sweary Cav alwys good value and there's a couple of Sagan wins that I hadn't seen. Even if you can't follow all of the commentary, you can tell that its filmed and produced by people who love the sport. I may watch it again later if I survived Christmas dinner.
Watched this again tonight and had a few thoughts I'm gonna share.
1) Cancellara was ridiculously good. Forgot how good he was. That Roubaix win was really quite something given the position he was in with 30km to go and again at 24km to go (though he did get his fair share of good luck with the QS boys but still).
2) Great little bit in that race where they showed the conversation between Sep and Fabian. Sep shouting "I'll take over after the next set of cobbles" to which Fabian shakes his head, but still drives on.
3)Also forgot quite how good Sagan was.... Might have to revise my predictions. Can't see Boonen winning much now.

I'm not giving up on him yet as I think he might surprise us yet.
The motivation for him is that fourth Flanders that he really wants.
He is still hurting from those two wins that Stijn took from him.

10min recap from this great photographer. Quite interesting as it shows the moment in live then the photo. This particularly photographer edits heavily but very well and it is clear after seeing this film. http://vimeo.com/82851936

Not the best season ever though...
Paris Nice is basically a footnote since they deemed it too boring.
Cheers. Not doing a good job reading today.

No idea why no veldrijden coverage since the pro season begins and ends on mud...
It's like comparing rugby 7s with actual rugby union.

FJS but I'll take the glory.
They're good usually and often a good prompt to go revisit one or two of the races that you'd forgotten about.
2011 was very good IIRC.
