    Me either but Cycling News saying they're both there.

    Also saying Boonen complaining that he was pushed.

    Looks like the group all swung over the the other side and he had nowhere to go except into the kerb/drain.
    We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

    Something about Cav putting on a jacket... I got disturbed and didn't catch all of Jose's update.

    Boonen is out after hitting a drain and catching his left leg on the curb.

    Trying to watch on the Internet is annoying, keep losing my feed - why can't Eurosport cover it? Better than Crit International or Catalunya surely?

    Boonen got back on after the crash and rode up Kemelberg before throwing in the towel.

    Hit his knee?

    If so that'll be season over.

    He's had a lot of problems with that knee.

    Ah Cav did take off his jacket, that's why he was hard to spot because he no longer looks like a ninja in all black but has OPQS colors back on.

    Looked more like a twisted ankle. He put his right leg - I said left before I think - out and his ankle sort of buckled/he slipped on his cleat and then he went down.

    Sky Sports bought it for 30 minutes of graveyard shift highlights. :wink:

    Sagan looks so easy. Gap going out nicely.

    No impetus in the peloton.

    A big PTP moment today.

    Are you on the wrong side of the Sagan/Cav split?

    Only Sagan can mess this up for himself now. Can't see the peloton catching them.
