In god only knows how many editions of Roubaix, I don't remmeber ever seeing this happen
Okay, I wasn't sure about that. I've always wondered, though, how comes that there are so few crashes with spectators, on mountain finishes as well. They're so close sometimes!

The riders assume that all the spectators will get out of their way. They ride where it makes the most sense to and then rely that the spectators are totally rational human beings. Turns out they aren't.
That does make sense

Oh, and Frecnh people shouldn't be allowed to decide where to put camera's. Chauvinism is a French word after all.

Does Vanmarcke really think he is stronger than Cancellara? Even on the cobbles he stayed in the front.

Crashed and punctures that happen because of the cobbles are a part of the race.
Retarded spectators ruining the race are not. |

Stybar might even get caught by the Langeveld group. Such a shame for him.
Vanmarcke to win this for me.

Vanmarcke doing his best to lose the race. I don't know what it takes for people to learn how to ride with Luigi. Gerrans got it quickly.

I think Cancellara will take this, Vanmarcke doesn't look too comfortable.
I hope it is Sep though.
