Still called Omloop Het Volk among cycling fans, a part of whom see today as the real opening of the season (although others disagree and count the Tour Down Under, or San Juan, or whatever).

Nope, but we have some updates. They are 4 and not 3 and it's unknown if they are cyclist or staff members. We know that Cofidis, Gazprom and FDJ members can't leave their hotel.

Classic moment about 3k from the end of the Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne when the peleton gets to a roundabout & 2 riders at the front charge off heroically  straight ahead in the direction of Kortrijk. Meanwhile, the rest of the pack turn left towards the actual finishing line in Kuurne.
