Fignon - In my day, doping methods were derisory and the riders´exploits were massive.
For the last 15 years or so  it has been the other way rond: there is a huge number of ways in which riders can dope, and any exploits are derisory.

I'll think you'll find Mew, that someone said Kittel before the new female member!  :P

The photographer injured in the post finish line crash was Roleur's Taz Darling.  Differing reports as to the extent of the injuries (one source said a broken jaw, another fractured skull) but all on a similar scale of unpleasant. 
Het Nieuwsblad has a gallery up of the crash so you can see who is involved but generally it makes for uncomfortable viewing: http://www.nieuwsblad.be/article/detail.aspx?articleid=DMF20120404_188.  Maxime Vantomme is clearly concerned though.

Only watched as Renshaw was back doing what he does best

Nice result for Bos - Bos should have a good year next year when Renshaw leads him out all year
