Try to imagine 8 hours of panflat Qatar-desert on a day with no wind
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

What's so snooze fest about it? Not even Mendrisio 2009 kicked off this early, if memory serves me right.
The Italians would have already raced one fast lap by now with Bruseghin on every other hilly course in the last 7 years. I think we are going to miss the Italians today. A good Italian squad would make the race far more intresting.

You could always watch the boring Singapore GP and then come back for the climax |

Now things might start happening. If Cummings and Meersman went as well, then it'll be interesting who steps up to the chase. |

And Meersman. But we keep pushing the pace.
Beppu and Nocentini.

Random fact, Nocentini finished 2nd in the U23 race when Camerizind won here in 1998. |

Why is Belgium riding!!!??? Meersman is with the break and he's very strong at this kind of work. Trust your men. |

Probably just staying in good position or trying to slow down the peloton. Doesn't look like they're chasing very hard.
Nevermind, it's a chase now. Fuck logic.

I guess they think Meersman doesn't have much of a chance out of that group, or that it's safer to keep things controlled for Gilbert and Boonen. |
