    And look at that champion teammate Rowe right by his side. What a soldier.

    Yep. Great ride from Rowe. Showing he can do it in the big ones as well as the chippers.

    Wiggins had to unclip.

    G looks very comfortable but he's right at the front again.

    I think that was Bernie. The beards are confusing.

    Oh really? Fair enough. They do look similar.

    Fairly sure it was Wiggins, tbh.

    Any clues?

    I just googled David Harmon Eurosport, and go to the 2nd page.

    About 40 riders left now so it's going to be the Kwaremont-Paterberg that makes the final selection I think.

    He's managed to get a few things removed by the looks of it but it keeps reading its ugly head. Rightly so.

    This is still wide open. It's missing Cancellara. There's always a nervousness/excitement at this stage when he and/or Boonen are there.

    First time I can ever recall Giant doing any work in a race other than in the last few kms

    Since any reference to whatever badness people keep making vague reference to has been removed from google, could Eurosport just hire Harman back and have a competent commentator?


    Yeah. I tried looking for it but I'm still in the dark. Maybe he is too, with a damp cloth on his head!!

    Great commentator and often the greater the exhibition, the more tattered the man.

    Talent can be a *****.

    It can be found. You might need to spell his name right though, it's Harmon.

    Eye nose that. Got bored looking for something I know nothing of!!

    Wow, thats pretty shocking if what I found is the real thing! Good riddance


    yeah, fine, but I know nothing , nothing at all.
