    Seriously how can they be riding with bare arms and legs and no gloves? :x :shock: It's baltic out there with that wind.

    DOesnt look so bad down there - I was in a long sleeve jersey and Gilet for the first time this year so it's warming up!

    Must be warmer in Zuid Holland. I'm still freezing up here.

    I don't get why there is a group of 20 odd riders doing nothing when they don't have anyone in the front group.

    Stannard blowing hard...

    He's never looked like he isn't blowing hard.

    Stannard always looks to me like he's a rogue cartoon that's somehow escaped into the race footage.

    Vanmarcke is strong. I still think it's too big an ask though.

    Sep is too quick on cobbles for GvA. 10 seconds he's gained.

    GvA not waiting for Gilbert since no earpieces - doesn't know he's en route
