Yeah, dude, and after you get Rasmussen's polka-dot helmet you should alternate between Robbie McEwen's green Ridley Noah and Flandis's yellow BMC.

I think the only problem is using an Assos F1 Mille Bib instead of a F1.13 S2

You're legs aren't blurry enough. Sprint from a lower gear.
Wheel hop is a sign that you need to smooth out your stroke.
You should practice downhill low-gear sprints to get to maximum cadence, it will smooth you right out.
+1 swinging the bike slightly
