Ghent Wvelgem

What a ride for GVA, he is on fire. Quickstep sure did **** the bed, TWICE. GVA def has to be a favorite for next week. Well done on winning the triple, Nieuwsblad, E3 Harelbeke and now Gent-Wevelgem all in 1 week.

GVM is for sure on his game . Respect as well to Keukeleire for working with him, for a great second place finish .
Wonder why QuickStep can't find a sponsor for next year ??? Daaaahhhhhh....
5 major one day races this year and only one podium position, from QS, the super one day team .

The Kimmelburg is such a juicy cobbled hill.. after 100 miles out to the coast and back, they loop around to do it twice.




Actually a direct route from Kortrijk (Wevelgem is nearby) to Ghent is not far,

I followed a Navigation canal a large portion of the way..

I know right, man they really messed up. I loved Sagan's interview after the race, when asked about Terpstra, he said he can decide who wins, which I thought was awesome, why would he help Terpstra when Terpstra wouldn't work.

Agree, Keukeleire rode an amazing race, I wanted him to win, so close.
