What an a-hole of a spectator.

Poor sod, let's hope he can get back on, but it's not going to be easy.

Poor guy but I wouldn't mine seeing it again, looked like Stybar took a risk going so close to the spectators, seemed to get too close to me as many of them had to step back - twitter saying it might have been a camera catching his face.
Surely you'd want to be on the front for the cobble sections.

Oh this is too good...
I went from being ready to kick walls down - to absolutely gutted for Stybar, in less than a minute.
Heart breaking for the fella, Cancellara certainly wouldn't have had it all his own way.
Another quality heads up from Team Geek.

Great win, Vanmarcke, just needed one or two powerful revolutions and he may have got it, but not in the legs. What an amazing 3 1/2hrs of coverage!

Absolutely beautiful race!, had it all from a good 50 kms to go. Nice to see Canc try a different tactic for the win too, although like everyone else I'm gutted for Stybar.

Looked like it, almost like he just didn't have it in the legs to turn those pedals a couple more times. Yep shown it again and he stops 10m out...
I bet Canc's legs are screaming with burn.

Yep, must be murder trying to put a decent sprint in after all that. I think Gaudin would have taken the sprint for 3rd for example had he not put so much work in for so long.
Assuming [MENTION=12656]Pantani[/MENTION] only got 1-2-3 he got touched off for cash, with GVanA.
Not the best day financially for Team Geek.

I reckon the presence of those other riders just ahead contributed - both had to move aside a bit
No he was just beaten, simple pimple.

Fantasy wise, from the Top Ten I have 1,5,7,9,10. I didn't have any bets riding as I couldn't decide from anyone of at least 20. Hopefully Pantani will have a 1-4 deal instead of a 1-3.
First and sixth, kicking myself over Kristoff, gutted/surprised Boom faded.
Almost worthy of it's own thread:-
