Boonen won easy
Nice try from Flecha there.

For a moment there I thought Hunt was actually going to beat Boonen in the sprint.
Great job by Chavanel. Gave Boonen the win on a silver platter.

but man, eisel was faster than i have ever seen him in the last 1-2 years on cobbles....
i think he did a great job.... he was the fastest in the last 50m (and he did it alone)

If it wasn't for Chavanel, a Rabo-rider would have won.
Chavanel is a strong as 5 riders. Damn. |

His hip is excellent. It's his ribs that are the problem at the moment. Still from the fall in besseges. He sms-ed yesterday that he had a very bad week in training because of the pain in his ribs. |

The next big "cobbled" (note the quotes) race is the Monte Paschi Eroica. Which although it isn't actually a cobbled race can easily be approached as one.
Top riders in the race include Stuart O'Grady, George Hincapie, Pippo Pozzato, Alessandro Ballan, and Martijn Maaskant.
Personally I have Maaskant for a breakout win |

Cancellara might miss the big classics because of a shoulder injury |

At Murcia, they aren't saying he will miss the race, but they are saying he will not be at 100% |

he injured his shoulder in switzerland while training, he is missing murcia but may still make Monte Paschi Eroica so it can't be too bad.

Don't really see a chance for him. Too many injuries, lack of form, no race days. Will be very difficult. |

You just like disagreeing with me don't you
Its a good point, but then who do you like, I think Boonen wants a third P-R for him to go really hard at RVV, maybe it will be a good chance for like a Flecha or Hoste |
