What a fantastic race that was (E3 Harelbeke)! Cancellara came back after bad luck 3 times (2 punctures and broken derailleur), attacked out of the peleton, got up to the break (1'40" ahead) and took over, thanks to Stuart O'Grady. He away almost instantly and finally had about 1 minute advantage on the break. Wonderful!
you just trew the first rock m8
but it was kinda fun to watch, but you already knew, that he would win.. even with 1m40s behind the leaders and that really makes it less fun..
Vanmarcke was great today and damn, i was really cursing behind the TV when Tankink couldn't follow because of some pain
just looked Cancellara atack..eat S--t that was realy something..huh-huh. How they one after another just raised hands..damn can not race with motorcycle..
I am still saying as year ago that I consider him as most complete and best cyclist in the world
His sprint was ridiculously illegal. If the race wasn't in Spain he'd be relegated.

Thanks for that video lluuiiggii - there is that moment when the rabobank rider sits up thinking to himself holy ****.
You know Cancellara and Gilbert are absolutely up there at the moment. Superb performance though no Boonan or Flecha hard to say if they could have lived with that.

yeaah it was amazing moment..dead flat and nice smooth tarmac..and that holy #### reaction.. nice moment.
that wasn't a holy shit reaction, that was cramp xD it you could see it better in the live feed at sporza, the slowly played the moment just before Cancellara went over Tankink (that Rabo rider) and he already grabbed his leg before Canca was there, still tried to get in the wheel after that and again grabbed his leg
but if you saw the whole race, not only the final jump, it was just and amazing race by Canca, he recovers so fcking fast
there where a few small groups between the leaders and peleton and Canca ttacks inside the peleton and closes the gap nearly by himself (and a bit of help by o'grady, who saw him coming) just insane
Finally Rihas get the win. I didnt see the end, was it "ridiculously ilegal"? If so sucks that cardoso got second, but still glad to see radioshack doing so well.
And what a win by Spartacus! Watching it thinking he's done after those mishaps, but noooooo he comes back and takes it in glorious fashion. He's the man to beat for RvV and PR.
