Of course it matters, what are you talking about?

That was a typical Boonen attack.... and also a great way to see who's got the legs today and who doesn't. Tactical moreso than flexing his muscles

No it doesn't. Either Boonen attacks or Cancellara attacks. Someone has to attack hard there to create the group
Boonen won this race 4 times by doing this. Cancellara won 2 times

What are YOU talking about. You know nothing clearly

Nothing wrong with attacking. But this was too early, and also Cancellara is the big fav. Boonen has his sprint, that is a weapon Cancellara lacks.

So if Boonen gets dropped by Cancellara, he would regret that he didn't save energy for that moment.

I take that as a good read.

Only Wynants there lol... Not even Boom or Breschel

Typical Rabobank. Show your face up front before they start racing and when they finally do start racing, no one's there. :eek:

An effort like that really doesn't cost that much. Trust me. You clearly don't know this races if you say that attacking is dumb there. If Boonen doesn't attack. Vanmarcke does. If both don't, Cancellara will. Taaienberg is a crucial point where a leader HAS to attack

Boonen doesn't have to do anything. He is a sprinter.

Thank you for proving my point you know nothing. Absolutely nothing, about classic racing in flanders. Well done!

funny that when Boonen had attacked (then with Vanmarcke following), i thought it's a Vet Volk replay and was expecting to see Boom doing cyclocross :D
