Gotta love Zepunkte! Looking like this, and still deciding it would be a better idea to get back to the breakaway, than simply slinking back to the peloton and lick his wounds. :)

Already a few crashes. Nizzolo and Haller to hospital.

90k to go.

And Quick Step already making it a hard race _O_

Very conservative racing, so far.
They're approaching hillier terrain, hopefully it'll animate the race.

What's the situation now? How many in the peloton approximately?

Judging on the ticker the peloton is already pretty decimated, partly due to crashes, partly to the pace of Quick-Step.

I cant help feeling these Flandrian races nowadays are getting ridiculous with the amount of traffic furniture and the speed and number of riders. Its more like a demolition derby than a bike race, with hospitalizations commonplace. They should severely resrict the number of riders in these sort of races to a lot less than the current amount. About 170 riders are in this race, should be more like 100 max imo. Dont suppose it will happen tho coz rider safety is a long way down the list

Kwiatkowski, Theuns and Langeveld bridged to Wallays (only leftover from the early break) after the Taaienberg.
