    The Festival of cycling that is Flanders culminating with the tour of Flanders itself on Sunday but first this the dwor landrin a magnificent course coming as it does after G Bev gam and the E3 and some great names had turned up to play the game well the DOR has found itself

    Really as the last prep for Flanders itself and in so doing it’s smaller distance has made for a Mixed Field fast men come along the classics men likewise even some Grand Tour Specialists are in The Fray doesn’t make it any easier however with so many options for teams everyone had a

    Chance 12 climbs to be tested eight sections of PVE a looping course just nudging odada working its way back to varam itself the heart of the race well it took 30 km for a breakway to form itself out front and indeed the pinch points along the way the action points

    Of the climbs and the cobbles were drawing out several responses the pace was extraordinarily high as it has been indeed for much of this season splits were happening the wind was playing its part in fact this race had it all including its own sections of Darkness teams were taking it on driving

    Into the Gap that the Breakaway had posted never really had a a huge margin nudging up to the 2minute mark on occasion but plenty of big names were starting to suffer already the pace absolutely Relentless a sequence of Sprints between the obstacles and on a downhill section

    This Disaster for w vanard Mass pson yesper stoven bam G just some of the big names who found themselves in Chase group up front it was Carnage well some H names will also be missing out on Flanders itself but van out looked very doubtful he taken to hospital amongst others meanwhile the

    Group up front which included T sput and Mato Jenson also Vis M Lisa bike knowing that while vanard had taken a tumble it meant that the duty of the day transferred to their shoulders well they were part of a Chase group including Alberto betol and Michael valgren of eigan eastst in the

    Pink that were chasing down the original break also wanting to come and join the fun late to the party you might say Josh taring time trialist extraordinaire he bridged over as well the pelan itself well those that have been caught out behind the crash like yasper phison Michael Matthews Jonathan Milan they

    Wanted to make amends but Woods there enough time with 39 km to go well the constant ebing and flowing it seems of that Gap was finally snuffed out as the two front groups came together the pelan still in Aras by just over a minute and a half Michael

    Matthews decided that he might try and Bridge also invoking the chase Jonathan Milan who just was wondering whether this day which he’ started as absolute favorite was going to slip from his grasp certainly looked that way with 35 km to go they were holding a margin so

    We started to ponder who it would be from that select group up up front that would have the day Milan and Matthews just couldn’t do it themselves and a man who was helping himself Alberto beo spectacular season for him could he do it again well he really kicked on when it

    Came to that rise on the cobbles the problem was he’d hurt himself we thought it was a mechanical but the way he was hanging and shaking his left leg a strained car seemed to be his issue a real shame for bettiol who from this group surely should have been

    Favorite then it was time for visma bike to invoke the old onew T penut working very hard Matthew yenson the American able to just keep himself tucked in within the crewp Ste Kung decided that it might well be he knowing that Josh Tarling was struggling Kung a great time

    Trialist just like Tarling he didn’t want him for company and then this a roll over the top with 7 km to go Mato Jenson attacked could they catch him did they have the resources to do so yoron after Pines knows how to get the bit between his teeth phenomenal athlete is

    The American and given his chance in the absence of w out of course this surely would be his moment well they still thought about it behind was the hard knocked out of the remainders of that front Group Well it certainly looked that way as yor hit the

    Last PVE section suddenly free of all the torture a smile washed over his face he realized what was within his grasp spectacular riding from Jorgenson yet again and it was minor places up for grabs one of those jonis Bramson been in the break all day the original

    Incarnation of the Breakaway he set off as well there was regathering the folding over t b thought two from Vis mise bike on the podium would be a very handsome thing indeed jensson taking the day out of sight of all of the chases a truly magnificent ride well Bittersweet

    Perhaps for fisma Lisa bike especially with the injury to W vanard others from the Breakaway came around the corner Bramson pushed to the line and just edged Kung at the last that was our Podium but what a day of heart and Broken Dreams this mise bike must Ponder what

    Had gone on Fast finishing behind Josh tling from the group Jonathan Milan who started the day’s favorite was to finish seventh a cruel sport but a joyful one as well dardo bladon has a worthy Champion a fabulous Podium and really a preview of what might be to come in a good way

    Let’s hope for Flanders itself this coming weekend what an amazing Day
