That race seems made for him. He's hard to beat when there's a short, steep finish. Mind you, it's the kind of finish that should also suit someone like Dan Martin - but he seemed to drop off the pace rather easily today.

Nah, Alan Phillips only won because MvdP wasn't allowed in today. Him and Fuggle Song were messing about on the front again.

I wondered if he'd slowed because he was getting rid of clothing. I'd love to see how they take leg-warmers off.

 

[Andrew Br]

I'm reconsidering; he doesn't look like he's got much left. Fuglsang current favourite ?

 

[Andrew Br]

Whoa !
How did he stay up ?

My heart was in my mouth because that would have been really nasty
