Surely has to be one of the High Road boys....... Not entirely sure Cavendish will be able to haul his fat ass over the kemmelberg though so I'm going to vote for Hammond to take this one.

RAGT

Hushovd, Hunt, Renshaw, Bozic, ...

They're almost all there, exept Peta (a bit strange desicion) and Bennati. And nice weather. I would not put a dime on Flecha, Gilbert, Devolder, Cancellara et al.

missed Credit Ag, thank RAGT.

If this ends in a bunch kick with 70 odd riders, an no one really getting a proper leadout train, it will be a sprinting crown fo' sure.

No you didn't, Goss isn't on the startlist according to cyclingnews. Smarten up a bit classic, you dickhead.

hmmm, early stages if schizophrenia?

I took the list from CN, but I have seen Goss and Haedo named on Gent startlists recently, so we gotta wait and see.

Wonder what is happening with Lancaster, last year he was riding the Spring classics and did ok. This year he pulls out in the Dutch race on the weekend when the weather got bad. SOFT!

Even with the race under way, CN still don't have a correct startlist

Hushovd is racing well.
This type of race suits him.

Very shrewd choice, RAGT.

Pozzato and Gilbert over the Kemmel. I hope Gilbert smashes that poncy git Pozzato.

Ghey. He probably has a last model VW Beetle convertible in the garage at home. With Judy Garland on the stereo and a jar of KY in the glovebox.
