Boonen could've won this race from a 100 man sprint, but yet he tries to do a 55 km solo. Respect.

Very, very courageous for sure.

When Canc races like this, he is often called stupid.

Now someone with nowhere near as much ability to do it is trying the same, it's definately stupid.


Pipo fail.

I love it when Sean Kelly is simply ignoring the questions the other commentator asks him.

Leaving it now would make no sense for Boonen, if he sits up he's used up all this energy while saving his opponents from having to waste their energy chasing him. He has to make the other big guys waste a lot of energy to pull them back, it's not like it's a 50 man peleton chasing.

A true champ.
Hope it doesn't end up costing him though.
