It's going hard in the peloton. Several riders are being dropped. Wind is playing a big role today!

Peloton is 6 minutes behind the break after 20 kms so doubt that's true


from BMC twitter :

"After 25kms of racing we have a 5-rider breakaway with a 6 minute gap and the peloton has been split into two groups"

so yes it's true

No, this tweet was about the women's race...

EDIT: and no, there is no split in the peloton

So there were echelons in 'De Moeren' and we have a first peloton with most of the favorites.

140 km to go and Sagan without teammates again.
Oleg simply can't afford a world-class team.

He liked to pretend he was the Abramovich of cycling, but his bank account isn't as big as his mouth.

So.... it seems Vanmarcke is in the second peloton and it doesn't look like they're coming closer :(
Gaviria and Greipel also gone, anybody else caught out?

Sagan without teammates is also crappy for him.

Boonen was really lucky to have Maes in support there, or he would have been dropped.

Just remember Sagan had a choice between a bigger contract or a better team to support him. He took the money. He made the choice to be isolated and have to get his own supplies.

I was on the telephone for a moment and have only shortly seen an etix rider, possibly Zdenek Stybar very angry, what has happened?
