E3 Prijs Vlaanderen Video Analysis
E3 Prijs Vlaanderen 2009 - How The Race Was Won from Cosmo Catalano on Vimeo. Better version at cyclocosm.com, as well as an iTunes-compatible download
What better thing for media jackass day than some actual analysis with snappy video commentary from yours truly, including improved audio via iPhone voice recorder. Sure, the race happened four days ago, but c'mon—I'm not made of time.
In fact, I think I'll have to limit these things to big Grand Tour stages, the races we used to call the World Cup, and the Championships of the World...which gives me precisely no time off until June. Man, I love this time of year.

Nice work!
Do you want help pronouncing the names right? Here it is anyway :)
Flecha – not a K-sound but just like ‘Fletcher’ (he’s Spanish not Italian)
Boonen – do not Boo the poor feller. It’s like ‘Boner’
Pippo – Italian vowels are always long: Peepo.
As for the Lance link
Let me say for the record that April Fools Day is about the stupidest day of the year. At least as far as big media are concerned.

"sure the locals are willing to help...
but the assistance is rarely of exceptional quality"
brilliant!
good stuff – thanks!
You may very well think that; I couldn't possibly comment.
thank you for capturing that bit!
The rider and the fan are both taking that push so seriously, though I have to wonder if the rider could have started better / faster / sooner without the push. What a great sport.
