I watched it on my phone. I didn’t watch the women’s but I thought the men’s was great. I was moved enough to wonder about others opinions.

A rare DNF for Sagan. Don't know what's going on there, but I loved his answer when asked about pressure before Paris-Roubaix two weeks ago, Sagan was philosophical about his spring campaign.
“Always the same questions, what is pressure?” Sagan said. “You cannot change anything. We are going to race, and we are going to do our best, then what happens, will happen. What more can you do?”

I watched it using Flobikes. I agree, nobody thought they could come from behind at the last minute. He pulled the group up there after being over a minute behind. It was the best finish I have seen in a long time. One broadcaster said it would become a thing of legend.

I was laughing because it seemed Simon Clarke seemed really happy about it all 
You seem him pat Van der Poel on the back and then at the podium they're grinning like fools together.

I hear the women’s was a nail-biter. I have never kept up or watched women’s races but I am going to change that.

Both were great finishes. Kasia is one heck of a racer. I think she's even better than her boyfriend! lol

This race broke everything I thought I knew about bike racing. Incredible!
Also, am I the only one who was reminded of this?
Was the TV/race radio reporting of the gaps completely wrong?
