91km remaining from 260km

 

Boonen's bout of forcing has seen a group of around 20 riders open a small gap off the front of the peloton. Boonen, Kristoff and Gilbert are all aboard...

88km remaining from 260km

This Boonen-Gilbert group might be too unwieldy in size for smooth collaboration, but the chase behind hasn't organised itself just yet, as the peloton was fragmented into groups on the Muur and its descent. There are, however, almost 20 kilometres to the next climb, which allows ample time for a regrouping.

In the men's race, the 14-man Boonen-Gilbert group is 3:19 down on the leaders and has a lead of around 20 seconds over a splintered peloton.

Anyone notice the lack of paparazzi on the bikes?

 

They have been told to ride ahead, then pull over to take stationary photos as the riders come passed.

 

No more mixing with the riders.

Now that you mention it......................

 

Glad they've done something to make the racing a bit safer for everyone.
