Silin going to wheelsuck himself to a stage win I guess.

Don't know, how's the finish? Flat?

I think so.

Or not really

GREG!!! Very clever attack.

 

[Quantumsoda]

Nice one. Strong finsh by Benoot.

 

[Maaaaaaaarten]

Good ride from Van Avermaet.

Benoot is so strong. Only 21 years old! The Belgians have their heir for the classics.

(Van Der Poel got caught by the Elmiger group and Teuns passed him in the GC, so if I got it right he will be 6th in the GC, which is still pretty good for a 20 year old cyclocrosser in his first professional road race this season)

 

[Jagartrott]

Very nice stage. Van Avermaet with some clever racing.

 

[De Snelle Duif]

Impressive by Benoot, but Van Avermaet deserves the win too! Nice ride by Foliforov and also by Teuns, future prospects I guess. Bille will also go PCT or WT again I think after this showing.

Shame I couldn't watch any stage but create to see all those Belgium-born talented riders in the top10. Must be my favourite result of the year. Mathieu seems to be the only crosser to perform, though. Normally the Tour of Belgium is the rendez-vous for crossers but here only teammate Walsleben was classified besides Mathieu. Where were the Fideas and Sunweb ???

Van Avermaet shows that he's a real winner! What a palmares he's got now!

van Aert was there or there abouts until he crashed on the final day.

Unless Contador is involved no one cares.

 

[Buffalo Soldier]

Walsleben was good throughout all the stages (won the combativité gc). Van Aert could have finished top 15 this stage, if not for the crash
