    Terpstra changed bikes for the one with the motor.
  • This Debu... guy is a dickhead. Sucked wheels the entire day and now wants J R to pull for him. Hopefully he punctures.

    Not again... Why's he going to chase down his team mate?

    Yes great stuff, G dropped the Debu guy. Sep needs to put in a stinger to drop him but no chance. The guy has not got it atm.

    Redonkulous from Terpstra, bike change and then a huge attack to kill off the rest of the break

    He's switched to the Moto bike!

    Thomas is a fighter jet according to Sporza! :D

    Quigley or whatever your name is, you are useless in Belgium.
    That was Ieper and they went through the Menin Gate, which for your information is the memorial with all the names of soldiers killed in World War One.
    Every bloody evening at 2000 hrs the Belgians play the "Last Post" in respect to the fallen and I've paid my respect 3 times by being there in the evening.
    And all you can say is that it is a town that made textiles.
    The British soldiers called the place Wipers.
    Disgusted.

    Vandenbergh getting back. They can't afford to mess about too much, Sep and Debusschere not that far away.

    It's not like the race literature for journos doesn't give them all that, or that the race calls itself "in Flanders Fields", maybe he's just some sort of peacenik.
