In the break from lap 3 yesterday. Stayed out front for over 10 laps with a breakaway companion until he was joined by a group including 3 team mates. Ramsey then went on the attack and won the race solo.

On a cold day, the wind blasting, and around a very tough course, Ramsey’s ride was pretty impressive to watch.

Paris-Roubaix

Dang-o. That Flecha was pretty close. I was a bit worried before the race because he’s been pretty quiet so far this spring. He’s going to win it someday.

Quick-Step has to be pretty damn frustrated. I don’t know who on their team that can win Fleche or Liege this year. Their spring could end up being a wash out. (and you can spare me with comments about the E3 race because that’s just a warm up event that no one cares about)

Good on Stewey. A great cap on his career. CSC with back to back PR wins is pretty impressive too. They could win the rest of the big races this spring too.
