    Mattia Pozzo (Nippo - Vini Fantini) Sjoerd van Ginneken (Team Roompot), Bryan Coquard (Europcar), Xandro Meurisse (AN Post), Fredrik Backaert, Dimitri Peyskens (Team 3M), Thomas Vauborzeix (Veranclassic-Ekoï) and one other rider are in the break. 

    Above copied directly from the feed. Breakaway has just over 3 mins advantage. Etixx and Katusha leading the bunch

    I guess we're hoping for Vanmarcke to rip the race to shreds. Otherwise Etixx and Sky are going to ensure a sprint.

    Just went for a shower with Eurosport 2 showing skiing, got out and there's cycling on with 6km to go. This is last year's, right?

    EDIT Just realised it's Omega pharma quick step so answered my own question...

    Looking at Eurosport 2 with 70 Km's to go.
    What I like about these Belgian races is that with 50 miles (or so) to go and the Peloton is strung out single file.

    65ks, Boonen leads them up then towards the top Sep puts the hammer down and 4 are clear.

    Sep makes a move on the kwaremont, Boonen and Stybar shadow. Boonen looks like he's thoroughly in team mate mode - Cav still near the front.

    Looking good for Cav and Quick Step has the usual 'overweight'.

    Boonen giving Stannard some sh!t for not pulling.

    Boonen is pissed, hunched over the bars making trying to get this group moving.

    Strong group but lots sucking wheels. Scared of the fact its over 60ks out. Lightweights.

    Sure Cav is in the big group of hitters?

    I'm not convinced.
