At a glance, KRVH, Bouhanni or Blythe FTW. Oops didn't notice Demare.

It's a cobbled uphill sprint, isn't it?

BMC Racing Team Nokere Koerse Roster (March 14):
Adam Blythe (GBR), Yannick Eijssen (BEL), Mathias Frank (SUI) Martin Kohler (SUI), Tim Roe (AUS), Mauro Santambrogio (ITA), Danilo Wyss (SUI).
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.

Break of the day:

Kenny Dehaes
Stefan van Dijk
Arnoud van Groen
Adam Blythe
Jacob Rathe
Michal Kwiatkowski
Mickael Delage
Boris Dron
Aleksejs Saramotins
Rony Martias
Bert De Backer
Pieter Ghyllebert
Steven Van Vooren

Gap of 1 minute after 90km raced.

Rabo, Vacans and Katyusha have all missed the move. Very surprised to see Blythe in there.

First time round, the Tiegemberg brought forth a mouse. It's a shame they only climb it once.

A mass fall took out guys like Demare and Bos so basically Chicchi had no opponents left

No reason to watch this finish, honestly. Chicchi was unopposed. There were only 2 riders who tried to sprint: Chicchi and Boeckmans. By the overhead they were just as fast as each other. Imagine watching KBK without anyone else sprinting against Cav.

There was so little contest that Boeckmans appears to be laughing as he crosses the line second.
