    2005 Tom Boonen (Bel)
    2003 Peter van Petegem (Bel)

    1957 Fred de Bruyne (Bel)

    If ,big if, Boonen does do it, he'll be half way to Roger's record at the
    ripe old age of 26.

    Remarkable, something Eddy Merckx _didn't_ do. Although If I am
    reading the lists of past winners correctly, he was on the podium of
    both races 4 times: 69, 70, 73, 75.
