My problem with the commissar making d barrage was it was dangerous

 

[mididoctors]

Tough race

 

[No Ta Doctor]

Campenaerts sat in for ages then attacked on Kemmelberg
Mads P catches and counters, does he want to go solo from 56km?

Apparently so.
35km to go, 2mins on the peloton.


I think Milan and teammates are in the peloton as well. Alpecin were working but seem to have dropped off. Lidl are at the front for nuisance value

 

[mididoctors]

Lot of resignation in the bunch ...Milan is an anchor too

Philipsen attacks last time over Kemmelberg, gets a gap. Him and Florian Vermeersch have a little gap. I guess he didn't think his team had the power to bring it back for a sprint

 

[Blazing Saddles]

It’s not even close. A one man echelon.

 

[No Ta Doctor]

Couple of Lidl's come to the front to eat their lunch

'Mads has a couple of km to go before he turns into a tailwind

 

[mididoctors]

Keep peddling

shoot, some women in the canal in the women's edition, ambulance involved

Great ride from my man Mads.
Merlier just pips Milan for 2nd place as the bunch come in a minute later

In pretty much any other generation since I’ve been watching cycling Mads would have been in the conversation for race favourite in most of the Classics. It shows how spoiled we are that he is generally the slight outsider / dark horse when any of the big 3 are around.

You get the feeling he would be solo for second place a min down on MvdP is MvdP was there

Kopecky leads out Weibes for the win in the women's edition, her hundredth career win. Boring.
Elisa Balsamo takes 2nd, Charlotte Kool 3rd

50th career win today.
But as he said in the post race interview. It’s a different story when the big boys are on the start list.
