    Well played. Well played. I was hoping someone might find our lovely horse.

    Thanks for the Nizzolo heads up all.

    Yes. It will make the buildings look more interesting.

    Done, got to be worth a shot.
    Cornish tribute pale ale is poured.

    Rooting for Cav.

    All this talk about Boonen being supremely confident for a sprint, could it be that people are all just knackered?

    I think this should be the rule for all races.

    I know it's a long race, but does Boonen really fancy his chances against Cav, Kristoff, Sagan etc?

    Look the Belgians have two chances - Greg & Boonen in the sprint. What else do you think they should do?

    A sprint after this distance, in this heat, is going to be very different. Especially with that finish that seems to trick people into going too early.
