It's the classics season!

Better late than too early right?

The real racing season started last weekend in Belgium with Omloop het Nieuwsblad and Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne. Some Belgian guy wearing Estonian champions jersey won the Omloop het Nieuwsblad and K-B-K was "made interesting" by Team Sky. The most amazing thing was that you could download Omloop in HD 2 hours after the race, so this almost takes the exitement out of peering into that stamp sized pixel soup at ungodly hours of your weekend.

But seriously...what's up with Garmin jersey?

This weekend is the Tour de France of classics, meaning a three day long stage race that is Driedaagse van West Vlaanderen. There's also a spring race, not a classic, but more of a climber squirrel's spring race, and that would be Strade Bianche. Strade is definitely the favorite race of any hipster and for a reason, the race is in Italy...

Talking down on the Strade. Looks like my wife's boyfriend is doing pretty good against the more obvious competition. Can't be all that bad if amazing Fabian is going to win the race. I told you guys that Fabian is loosing weight and will become a contender in hilly classics as well. Wonder if they are still claiming that Fabian weighs 80 kg?
