Huzzah! Very nicely done Alaphilippe!Comment

Best Flèche of the decade. Says he who watched the the last 15km.Comment

That was as good a Fleche as I've seen even if it did end up with the familiar group charge up the Mur. Way better than Amstel was as well.
Was watching on Sporza after my Eurosport stream crashed and enjoyed the commentator getting suddenly very excited as the race crested the Mur and they realised Alaphilippe's move was going to stick. Thought Valverde was just positioned a place or so lower than he should have been, seemed to get stuck behind that Mitchelton rider just as they caught the final escapee.
Good day for French cycling, Pinot also took the lead in the Tour of the Alps.Comment

Pinot successfully marks Lopez and Pozzovivo in the run-in and wins the GC. Mark Padun takes the stage.

Excellent race overall, now for Pinot to repeat that next month please.Comment

He mentioned the research in one of his columns last year. I quite enjoyed seeing Jasper Stuyven being namechecked in the pages of WSC.Comment

Van der Breggen continues her domination in the Ardennes, winning LBL quite easily.
It’s dry and quite warm (high 20s).Comment

No coverage of the women's LBL, poor show.
I tipped Wellens for today but I thought it was going to rain. Belgium looks as annoyingly sunny as London.Comment

Bob's doing the job! Watch his bicycle throb!Comment

Yay! The Curse Of Schleck is dispelled!Comment

Wonderful ride from Jungels. Very impressive by Woods. Alaphilippe did an incredible job marking the chasing pack
What a classics season for Quick StepComment

Had a nice day at the beach today so haven't seen any of the race. But I did notice something about my daughter's bucket:

Ben O'Connor, the 22 year old Aussie at Dimension Data, looks to be bloody good too. Came 11th in Catalunya, 7th in the Alps and 10th in the Australian national ITT.
EF Drapac's young Colombian, Daniel Martinez, is another having a great start to the year.Comment

Hate Drapac's kit, though...
Harry Pearson's 'Tall Man in a Flat Land' (which I remember very fondly- funny travelogue around Belgium) had him being bought drinks in Oudenaarde due to a resemblance to some 60s-70s giant of Flemish cycling whose name escapes meComment

Tour de Romandie nicely set up after yesterday's prologue. Looks like both Roglic and Thomas are targeting the win - as others are of course - though I think today they will just be watching each other in the finale. The breakaway riders could take this and Gougeard may get the race lead.Comment
-
Gougeard didn't quite have enough left in the tank, caught about 1500m from the end. Omar Fraile with a fine win for Astana; Roglic now the race leader.Comment

This post from Podium Café, on who's been hot and who's not, is worth a quick read.
Spoiler: Quick-Step have been hot.
