Hmm, i suppose. But they are listed beside each other, so we'll have to see.

Maybe they got placed in another location?
If not we can just have a "radio report"
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Well, it's a good job you made notes then. Maybe you can draw the race in Paint?

203 km to go: 146 riders just started the race
199km:
Thurau (EUC) is the first rider to attack. Vangenechten(LTB), Tamouridis(EUS), Lemoine(SOJ), Drucker(AJW), De Vreese(TSV), Devenyns(OPQ), Leezer (BEL), Mol(VCD) and Amorison (CRE) join him.
196km: The pack is already 1'40'' behind when further rider attack: Malacarne(BSE), Zingle(COF), Stamsnijder(ARG) and Millar(GRS)
188km: Despite of a hard chase by Sky, Nizzolo (RLT) wants to bridge the gap of 1'15'' on his own.
176km: The leading group has only 35'' advantage over the peleton when Leezer, Millar, Thurau and Mol try to leave the rest behind them. They are uncessful.
174km: Next attack including Stamsnijder, Thurau, Zingle, Lemoine and Millar. After being caught Nizzolo is next one to try his luck. He has no chance. Due to the attacks the lead has grown to 1'13''.
154km: The gap is again down to 45'' after Hayman and Stannard(both SKY) continue their hard work. You know what happens now, don't you?
Mol, Millar and Lemoine attack but only effect is the increase of the gap.
143km: After Stamsnijder chased them down, Malacarne attacks.
130km: It looked as if it could have been successful this time but then it is again stamsnijder who closes the gap.
122km: After Devenyns tried an unsuccessfull attack Tamouridis is now at the front. He has already 30''. Is that enough to go alone?
116km: No. Millar & Devenyns stop his attempt. The 15 men have an advantage of 1'30'' over the peleton.
107km:
We are coming to the different part of the race:
Stannard has closed the gap to 50''. He does incredible work today.
105km: Hulsmans(VIN) bridges the gap.
90km: Stannard is still leading the group. Can he catch the escapees?
Btw, look at the favourites. Degenkolb sits just behind stannard. Is he scared that a split could happen or does he plans something?
86km: Surprise, surprise. Hayman leads the peleton into the Oude Kwaremont. He catches the break. All 146 riders are together again.
84km: the Oude Kwaremont caused some trouble to some riders. There were some splits in the peleton.
E1(11 riders): mostly riders that were part of the original break (e.g. Millar and Nizzolo) and John Degenkolb (ARG).
E2 (6 riders: +31'' : Gatto(VIN), Rast(RLT), Stamsnijder(Arg), Boasson Hagen(Sky), tjallingii(bel) and Greipel(LTB)
E3 (11 riders: +52'' including Hayman, Stannard, Thomas(all sky), di silvestro(euc) and others
Peleton (118riders: +1'20''
We now go into a commercial break. Watch out for the rest of the race
Spoiler I don't think i can finish part 2 today. You have to wait some time  Or you could guess how this will continue
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Go Di Silvestro.  Would be nice if a Europcar leader bridges the gap. |

Well, Thurau is in the break, and with 84km, there's enough time
Good to see that this probably won't get a mass sprint...
@Knockout Maybe you should tick off the 'direct link to photo' option or so in the photobucket options, so that if I click the photo, I only get the photo and not the photobucket site

While taking a break from Kuurne we take a look on how Omloop is getting on:
154 riders eager to open the cobbled season.
Many riders try to get in an early break, but RadioShack, QuickStep and BMC keep things together in the early part.
In the end 12 riders get away and enters the first cobbled section 2’45’’ ahead of the peloton.
The 12 are: Valentin (COF), Lasca (CJR), Stamsnijder (ARG), Lamoisson (EUC), Cerny (CCC), Cusin & Aregger (IAM), Van Asbroeck (TSV), Schär (BMC), Premont (CRE), Poux (SOJ) and Miletta (VIN)
RadioShack and QuickStep keep them closely under watch and with 130 km to go the gap starts shrinking again.
Van Keirsbulck leads the peloton into the second stretch of cobbles still with 90 km to go and just over two minutes to the break.
80 km and 1’40’’
70 km and 2’11’’
60 km to go and 2’12’’
The hills and cobbles are starting to get frequent.
When the peloton crosses this hill it already starts breaking up thanks to the hard pace.
15 riders including Boonen, Cancellara, Ballan and McDermott split out slightly on the front.
Only 40 seconds gap though, but with RadioShack and QuickStep continuing to push on Lars Bak is really put to work in the chasing group.
Some riders get back up and some still struggle behind with 50 km to go.
Original break
|
+ 0’52’’
Boonen, Cancellara, McDermott, Ballan, Turgot, Khampan, Sinkeldam

Go Ballan!!!
Nice idea from Schär to get into the break aswell, means the others could chill. Though getting dropped probably wasn't the idea. No mention of Van Avermaet so hopefully he's still in contention.
