Idem. I must admit that I would say Boonen first and Di Luca second.

A Ronde and a Paris-Roubaix. In the same year. Hail to the king.

I am already looking forward to end of year... San Sebastian, World Champioship, Lombardia... YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Boonen, closely followed by Di Luca.
Flecha also seems to be living up to the promise he has shown in previous seasons.

It's got to be Boonen and a big part of that is not just two stellar wins but also his youth. He has shown tremendous promise and that is pretty exciting.

Agree that Flecha did quite well. Voigt gets some credit for lots of solid breaks. Di Luca for naling a couple of nice wins. Pettachi for winning a big classic.

But Boonen is definitely on top. Wow!

Boonen. Di Luca made the mistake of deciding to race with the protour leader's jersey (which is so blatantly cursed), and lost L-B-L as a result
