The curtain comes down on the Spring Classics today, but there's one last great chance for Cycling to take a bow. I watched the 2003 version on the trainer tonight, and what struck me was how, although the race kept coming back together, the last 50km were a complete slugfest. Also, Lance and Sammy Sanchez storming through Belgium is a cool thing to see. Anyway, it'll be a great day today.
And I won't be here to see it. We're off camping. Hopefully Cycling.TV will have the as-live version available when I get back. I'm making two threads; please migrate over to number 2 when this one hits 400 comments and becomes a tad unwieldy. Enjoy!
