Good racing already, cobbles are awesome.

40 secs before Kwaremont is quite a lot I think the winner is in the Phil group |

Going from what we have seen so far, the cobbles will be amazing. They are always really good, but Sagan being SO strong and having zero team means the race will be on.
E3 is one of my favourites races on the calendar. GW has gotten back to 250 km and has thrown some dirt sections in!
Watching Dwars later altho is almost positively is a much better race than shitty Catalunya, but I got to root for my boy. And thats not Gaviria, but Valv. <3 |

Are QuickStep not going to fuck up a race where they numeric superiority?

Ettix apparently learned from last years mistakes.
Well done by Gilbert first and second and then finished by Lampaert.
Pretty much perfectly played their number advantage this time.
Durbridge looked strong but had to chase Boonen while Lutsenko looked weak already before. |

Quickstep played that one well, they clearly had the strongest team and the numbers in the end but I'm still surprised they didn't manage to lose it
Durbridge showed positive signs last season that he might fulfil the potential he's showed and but for 2 badly timed punctures would of finished top 10 at Roubaix. Big performance today, same goes for Lutsenko.
Now for E3 wooohoooo!

But it's nice sunny weather and so many fine paved stuff beside those pesky cobbles.
I hope to see a Roubaix in shitty weather, it's been sooo long since that was the case. Rough for the blokes but that's what cobbles should be.
Poor Gilbert that had a very shot to win this for the first time.

Hell I'd love to see shitty weather at both Flanders and especially Roubaix BUT I know it's going to be dry and sunny as it always is.

I could be wrong but the last wet Flanders was in 2008, I can't remember a wet one since then.

Yeah, all those sunny editions are too much, shame especially for those like Štybar, who would love the mud.
Btw. i was not sure if i am actually awake yesterday, because you dont see Quickstep with good tactics easily, almost looked like a fantasy. They actually did not manage to fuck it up, i dont believe it. 
Sagan for everything #666
