Flèche Wallonne --

Strong Voigt seems to have done a great ride. And now Di Luca is eyeing a Rebellin style three-peat! The Mur de Huy looked beautifully painful. And looks like Cunego had a very strong finish.

Unfortunately, I won't get to see TV coverage until Sunday, but the pictures looked awesome!

If Di Luca wins, they can call him Tri Luca.

I remember reading a letter in Cycling News.com about how one rider winning three classics in a row in the same year would be a 1/100 year event - or maybe 1/60. Here we have a chance to have the same three won by one guy two years in a row; although Fleche Wallone is only a "minor" classic, and Amstel Gold isn't even that.

Hey that is actually very witty, I guess senility and that recumbant are still a few years off 😄

Cunego did well. Wonder whether he might be prominent at L-B-L 😄. After all, that classic is usually quite friendly to GC riders (remember Armstrong/Hamilton etc in 2003)...
