That's bad.

It would also make it more difficult to win the Ardennes triple.

bad? AGR has become a glorified bunch sprint so thank god they are trying to do something to improve it.

it wouldn't make ANY differenc eat all. teh cauberg is sitll decided and whoever is up there first wins. unless a few riders are together. which RARELY happens. if one rider is gone he will win because all riders are dead and none can pursuit and it really wastes the idea of cauberg finish and seeign the finish there live

Most likely yes, but it would indeed have made a difference this year.

Yr. When I thought about it in a better mood, it should be good.

The riders will have to be more pro active and the race would be much more interesting.

If they finish at the Worlds' finishing point, the puncheurs will still have a very good chance.

Worlds pretty much proved this, even with the finish farther down Phil was still able to ride away for the win. Moving the finish down a little could provide some more excitement, if a group of 2 or 3 stay together over the Cauberg they could counter attack each other.

He can wear whatever the hell he wants as long as it's according to the UCI rules.

Nah, almost every WC has a helmet like that. I like this one, it's different.

Samuel Sanchez is still wearing his golden helmet.

I have seen Phil's jersey and i think it is the same design as Cadel's in 2010.

On Cadel's the BMC lettering was white with black outlines, also Cadel's shorts were only white on the sides and black in the middle, Phil's are all white.

Plus Phil has a cooler helmet, shoes, and bike

On the shorts, you are right. During the tour, the top half of the jersey was the same.
