    Way too many crashes in a straight line this week. These guys are pros and should be able to sort this out. They have had 3 months to work on their handling skills.

    Boaro really deserving of the crowds cheers as he solos up the Kemmelberg for the last time.

    Sep leads them up. Geraint, Thomas, Cancellara, Bennati, Hushovd, Boonen, Greipel, Demare all reasonably placed.

    Despite the latest crash that is still the majority of riders together in the chasing peloton. Just under 40km to go (sorry Manuele :wink:).
  • Greipel got over that in pretty decent shape

    Sagan and Cancellara taking turns at the front to try to make for a more select group of chasers. Greipel over that one in good shape.

    FYI, the riders have radios. French tv cut to them a decent amount. All the DS saying get 'Protected Rider' up to the front before the K'Berg....
    Now telling Sagan to take it easy.

    Cut these f'ing radios.

    Stybar hits the front. Boonen must be feeling decent.
