Incredible solo win for Taco van der Hoorn.   Not very often you get a breakaway win on Week 1 of a GT.  His brother Burrito & sister Quesadilla must be delighted.

Wow, what a win  

 

Always +1 for solos like that, and also now every World Tour team has a win this year

Today is The Day. All of Belgium has taken the day off or, in case their boss didn't allow it, quit their jobs. Today is the day when He will grab power and never let go for the next fifteen years. Anything less than a majestic victory for Him and Belgium will go back in mourning.

 

 

The hypetrain has been unstoppable for almost four years now, but any chance of braking the train will be gone after today.

What the hell, Attila Valter has the white jersey and he's 5th? I know that this won't last for long, but this is still huge for Hungarian road cycling.
