Oh Sagan...

OmegaPharmaQuickStepJoesCrabShackPopeDavisTire had FOUR guys in the break with ten km to go.  FOUR!!!  Yes, I YELLED that...

And why is Chavanel working for Boonen?  He's the only QuickStepper who is racing like his balls have dropped.

Evidently, several folks, including the OPQSJCSPDT Director, protested Sagan's win, saying he deviated off his line.  I've watched that video about 37 times.  I didn't see him move.  FDJ dude chose to come up next to the barriers.  That was his choice.  You pays the money, you rides the ride.

Flanders and Roubaix may get really interesting...

Not only does Sagan wheelie across the line, he also does better skids that 99.9% of fixie scenesters.  I'm sure the mechanic LOVED him flat spotting that tubular though!

We get Super Bowl displays in the grocery.  In Belgium, they get Flanders displays...

Andre forgot his uppers at Gent...

And Greg Henderson wants to know if you still think football players are tough?

And remember...

Decent ride last night.  Sort of disjointed, but just hard enough to get things going again after so many days off the bike.  It was discovered, however, that the tri dudes that show up might be pretty strong, but their riding skills are somewhere South of the bike-riding bear in the circus.  After running down 302 @ 30mph with them, it started to get a bit hairy, so JBrstl and I just sat up and waited on the group.

Wore the new Sportful Reflex 2 Gilet last night too.  Good stuff.  A further review follow in a few days.  Nice piece of kit, especially for the price.  No reason a lightweight vest should cost upwards of $75...at all...

Oh, and this is my friend Claire.  Some know her as "Pip".  She's very cool, she's definitely smoking hot, and she can ride the SHIT out of a bike.  She's also a model (duh!), and she's in a contest to win a shoot with Alex Lim.  Go vote for her...


Time to get the day started...not that I'm doing anything today...
