Patrick Cocquyt is still racing. He is still kicking ass against guys my age who are fighting tooth and nail for a professional contract in the hardest place on Earth to race a bike.

That is all.

Don't lose too many teeth. They're expensive to replace. I'd suggest fighting with nail instead of tooth for aforementioned reason.

That being said, chapeau to Cocquyt. That's awesome.

Wednesday's race was awful. The finish line was on a 10% grade, every lap for 17 laps. The 8 man break started attacking eachother with 3 laps to go, the winner didn't even have enough energy to celebrate, let alone walk without help after he finished. It was painful to watch. Belgians eat this sh*t up.
