go Sep!!!!!.......Nibs is gonna have a go.

Sagan looks like he is on a coffee ride on the climbs, GVA looks out of position.

Once they roll his teammate up.....

Kwi!!!! on the Pats!!!

I saw Sagan texting.

Cannondale has man up the road; possibly to set up Vanmarcke?

van Baarle looks strong too.

Langeveld.. not too shabby.

I'm always one year behind in this thread. But van Baarle is actually in there too and *does* look strong.

Sep not looking good on the Taaienberg...

Lampaert. Ridiculously fresh.

maybe a dumb question, when did Arnaud Demare become a classic's rider, wasn't he always one of France's great TDF hopes?

TDF as in green jersey maybe. He was originally slated as a pure sprinter, but in the past year or so has been trying to expand his range into a classics rider.

LOL, apparently it was this morning. holy cow. I did not know he's this tough. awesome.

I love the Nibs talk.

Kristoff looking OK too. He was glued to the GVA group on the Taainberg attack.

Terpstra has the best dead-fish stare

Real cagey game here

If I was in the field I think I'd be a little more worried about Terpstra than they seem to be. This is what Terpstra does.

Awesome. But very risky not to jump on Terpstra with this quality up the road. He gets to van Baarle and langeveld that could be it.

it will get real interesting if Terpstra can bridge up to the lead group

you read it here first. Kwi took the lead on the Pat the last time. they want to be all together at the top of the OK, then Kwi makes a harder move on the Pat and solos to the win

$0.02

yikes, Terpstra looks really strong; the other favs are pissing this away. 25 seconds is an awfully large gap...

Terpstra apparently wants no help.

Sagan just yawned. I swear to god.

I don't know. I think it was Gilbert glued to his wheel who yawned.

Edit: OK, now he's loose. But doesn't look super strong.
