Bloody impressive ride by Kristoff. Perfect combination of head, heart and legs.
Head: clearly realised that Terpstra was bloody strong at GW, and clearly had a plan to jump on board his inevitable long'ish range attack. Probably would have followed Thomas and few others too - but it seemed pre-race that there was something inevitable about Terpstra going and making it stick.
Heart: to go with that attack quite a way from the finish - it was more or less the first really serious move. Sure there's "attack as the best defence", but this was more than that. Very gutsy to lay it down so early, and to commit so fully.
Legs: no comment required for this one.
