You reckon ? I don't I think it'll be hard to see past Groenewegan (don't know how to spell ! ) but Id like to see Trentin go for it.Think there's some wind and rain forecast so should be fun

I've no idea who will win, but I like the classics.

It's a style - if not a speed - of riding I recognise, and I like the simple notion that the bloke who crosses the line first is the winner.

Still helps if you have the team,Quick Step are pretty formidable in the classics.
I'd love Standard to be up there.

I'm presuming Trentin has just been disqualified for using pavement/cycle lane.Where I've just sent another 3/4 in the peleton doing same thing.

Matteo Trentin did not finish the race, but his Mitchelton-Scott team have confirmed that he was not disqualified

Bit odd. They usually take a hard line on such shortcuts.

Strange that he sat up so to speak.
From Eurosport
The champion of Europe Matteo Trentin was disqualified of the Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne after trying to rejoin the group after suffering a fall. The Italian runner cut a roundabout in the pursuit and the race direction did not have any regard and he disqualified him from the race
