I think that we're in for a REALLY good race! I have a section of 22%
that I ride up every couple of weeks. It's only about 300 meters and smooth asphalt with extra good adhesion but WOW does it ever send my heart rate flying. I have to be in really good form to use normal gears instead of dropping into the 34/27. I think that WALKING the Koppenberg is good for the racers since it will put a little humility into them. Reminds me of Lance talking about recovering from his cancer and about to collapse on a hill and having a kid ride by him on her school bike. Or some reporter talking about some of the bergs and saying that while he was struggling up one a housewife rode by on her grocery bike. |

Gotta give George credit, he's figured out that you can't just ride
with Boonen to the finish if you want to win the race. He must have had that brilliant revelation after Boonen wiped the floor with him on the Roubaix velodrome. |

Yes, I think George has a very tough road ahead to beat Boonen As you say, he learned the hard way not to take a sprinter to the finish line But I just really can't see how he is going to win but do have a gut-feeling that the winner this year is going to be a total surprise Unfortunately I shall be airborne during the race and will have to cyber-cafe the results of the Ronde and the other April Classics too until I get back home later in the month Boy, am I gonna miss rbr -- Le Vent à Dos, Davey Crockett - Actively Opposing Thought Crime Close the Madrasas - Stop the Buggery http://www.ingridbetancourt-idf.com/base/ Free Ernst Zundel http://www.zundelsite.org/gallery/donations/index.html Free David Irving http://www.petitiononline.com/DavidI/petition.html |

Godefroot's just so used to trash-talking Ullrich that he says that about lack of motivation whenever anyone sticks a microphone in front of him. |
