    This is the polar opposite to last year's edition. what a sh*t race.

    It's not a sh*t race, it's just the wrong winner.

    Wouln't call it s'hit but it's been poor for me.

    Last 15 has been good though.

    Why is Terpstra doing turns? Stybar is behind him.

    Worth mentioning that the styby group is about ten secs behind the Sagan pair

    For the first time I've reached my limit with the commentators. Both of them, Kelly always annoys me. Muted till the end.

    Eh? He had numbers until 20km

    He had Rowe and a knackered Yogi. The others disappeared just before the race started to split.

    point I was making is you can't blame the team mates. They're just doing what they're told.

    See my earlier post about sky only ever chasing, never makimg an early movmove

    But you said he had numbers until 20 to go, he didn't. I still can't work out where they went, they didn't look tired.

    Terpstra will have to play silly buggers to get rid of Kristoff. GVA the same to get rid of Sagan.

    If G3 get's its act together this is still open.

    Why does Kristoff have a bronze coloured bike?

    Could this steaming turd lead to a return to the old route, or is pay per view for the corporate clowns here to stay?

    Terpstra needs a plan other than beating Kristoff in the sprint.

    I said there were not many ways Kristoff could win. This just happens to be one of the ways. :P
