Moser won. What a guy.
Henao sooooo close, wanted him to win but oh well. Great effort.
Kwiatkowski on 3rd is amazing !

Kwiatkowski did everything to keep the yellow, but Moser was too strong :/ |

Two huge talents first and second overall here.

How strong was Stannard, btw? In the breakaway all day, climbed better than Kreuziger and then managed another attack after he was caught. He really is developing amazingly. |

Stannard is a beast 
He will definitely be given leeway in Classics next year and I hope he will get chance to lead one ( i.e like Dwars Door or Omloop )
What annoyed me is that if Henao didn't attack early on the stage and concentrated on the finish - he would have won this stage ...

How will they manage to have free roles for Flecha, Hagen, Stannard and Thomas? Or will they all just work for the weaker one like in Roubaix this year?

Well I would actually expect one or two additions in Sky classic team So they should definitely get even better there.
Well, for Ronde I think it's all for Thomas and EBH as they climb the best.
Paris-Roubaix - I have no idea I guess the one that feels strongest will lead there. But I can't predict nothing yet, as I see Sky getting additions to Classic squad and so they might get unquestionable leader in cobble department

Moser's the Italian Sagan. Next year he'll clean everything.  And a great climb from Kwiatkowski too. |

Just caught up with that, and  Moser
Nice to finally have a result for Gerdemann again.
Does anyone know whether this will be the youngest World Tour/ Pro Tour stage race podium ever?
Should be 22,33 years average. Impressive, impressive.

I think EBH and Thomas are going to lead Sky in the flandres classics cuz they climb and sprint well , being helped by Stannard , Flecha , Eisel and Hayman (wow - super domestiques) and in PR probably Flecha again will be the stongest . |

Stage 7:
1. J. Degenkolb
2. M.Hayman
3. B. Swift
4. J. Guarnieri
5. T. Van Der Sande
6. T. Bos
7. A. Krupois
Hayman almost hit a photographer after the finish.
And of course, Moser wins.

Great win for Moser. Kwiatkowski definitely as surprise on 2nd there. And brilliant attackive display and podium for Henao. Shaping up greatly for August for him
Nice to see Swifty winning points jersey too. His next big target will be Vuelta, and with right prep he stands a chance of points jersey there too.

Was that a WT race?
Look at the results! I guess that's what happens when the TDF is on.

Don't look at results or startlist if you didn't watch the race And to be honest, the podium is very impressive here. 3 very exciting and future talents.
Whole week racing has been superb here. This was quite amazing race this year with no clear favourite ! One of the best stage races this year imo in terms of excitement and attacks.

yes this is WT race this year it startet a bit soon, becouse of Olympic games, and that's becouse there wasn't many good riders, anyway it is good to see polish rider on podium, last polish winner was Dariusz Baranowski 7 years ago. Polish cycling becoming stronger every year |

In a way it was better for the Tour of Poland to move to a mid tour date.
We got a good little race here from what I could see, only caught the highlights of it but a tough little race with lots of young talents shining through.
