I hope Boonen and Steegmans get some nice cq points.

But more importantly, i look forward to hearing Harmonn tell us the sad news that broke yesterday, and then dump on the Cobra a bit/ make fun of it. Magnus will perhaps say that its "unfortunate".

So Hitch I'm guessing you didn't pick Cancellara for your cq team. You better hope Boonen wins the double this season then :p

Anyway, I hope Boonen wins. Or Steegmans if he gets the chance.

Umm, how long is the circuit?

I'm not even bothering with the English Eurosport this week... too early to start putting up with that rubbish.
well as it does 2 full laps, and a 1/3 im guessing approximately 60k ish.

I think you got that profile wrong since it's a circuit course.

Just because i hold the opinion (like a slight majority of this forum according to the polls) that Cancellara is a better classics rider and more likely to win 5 monuments than Gilbert doesnt mean im a Cancellara fan at all. I was hyping Boonen for PR over Canc long before the cq game and i still hold that opinion.

Though with the cq game in mind now i would rather Boonen got 2nd in both and then went on to contest seriously sprints throughout the season, rather than win and take it easy like 09.

You get me wrong, it would have been pretty stupid to buy Cancellara because it's unlikely that he'll earn even more cq points this season. Hence you'd rather see Boonen win over Cancellara in those races.

And he didn't take it easy in 09, coke positive came up hence destroying his season after P-R :p

He's not going to take it easy with a flat worlds coming up by the way.
