Paris-Roubaix *SPOILER*

Boonen will be relieved to get that win under his belt and from what I read about it he handled the race very well!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you're not suggesting I thought it was!

No, I did not think that. I wanted to see everyone stay upright, too, and thought that had Thor made it to the velodrome he would have been the favourite. His loss of concentration was exactly the kind of mistake that Boonen does not make, which is what I was getting at.

Did anyone pick "Rear Tyre" for the Bike Show's "What will go wrong on George Hincapie's Bike Sweepstake", by the way?

Just had chance to watch the video on Eurosport (I was camping in Matlock on the day itself). Gutted for Hushovd, I think he would have given Tommeke a run for his money for sure.

Top result for Boonen. He put so much pressure on those around him, they made mistakes. Pity that there wasn't a closer finish, but you make your luck, and Boonen certainly did that.
