In other, hopefully more safe news, what do y'all think of the Arenberg chicane?

Lots of commentary out there, from Adam Hansen's steady hand to Jorgenson's vigorous +1 to Van der Poel's "is this a joke?"

Interesting article here touches on the process more than most:

My opinions and psychic predictions:
1. There will be a huge sprint for position into the chicane. Duh! - Capt Obvious.
2. There may be a crash in the chicane entry that everyone will be talking about. - Jeane Dixon
3. I would rather crash on the tarmac and grass of the chicane than the cobbles in the Trouee

It'll be curious to see if the lower entry speed and lining out makes bigger gaps on the far side of the sector. And what the opinions will be on the other end, with that +/- the crashes.

I loved Tim de Clerq's comment that he was one of the riders who suggested it but of course others will complain because that's cycling.
