No worries. It's worth bearing in mind that Sagan is the only rider to do this since the competition was more heavily slanted towards the sprinters.

Thanks!
I knew about Merckx, but for some reason, I forgot about Boonen.

How could you?
He is very unlikely to defend WCRR jersey, so going for the European one makes it worth a try, if out of pure respect.Keram said:According to slovak media Sagan should go to EC RR and Vuelta. I am curious if he will finish it this time. Also his form at EC RR is questionable.

Zinoviev Letter said:It is worth noting how strong his team seemed today. Sagan doesn’t bother with lead outs or a train, but even so it’s very useful to have this kind of support. They helped pull on the front, strung it out in the approach and then pulled the post crash lead group.
