Hopefully it's okay to create this thread.
Looks like a strong field for flat racing, anyway. I'm rooting for Sylvain Chavanel, but, as fans of French cyclists must ever be, am of course sanguine about his chances.
I suppose Martin is likely to repeat, but I think Phillipe Gilbert could win here, too (and don't I feel old, seeing that Erik Zabel's son is riding in support of him?). There's also André Greipel, how's he going right now, I wonder?
