Apparently, Tom Boonen made a miraculous recovery from his crash and will be riding Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix. He was spotted training with his Etixx-Quick-Step team mates on the cobblestones...

The article that accompanies that photo explicitly states that he won't be riding this weekend and was just there for guidance. He's still quite doubtful for P-R. Nice to see him out on a bike, though.

1% chance he will ride P-R. RVV recon was training ride and mentoring

i'd like to see him out there, but seems pretty doubtful.

Ok pals, I will fess up, it's a AF ploy. Remote chance he will ride. If he does, zero chance he will be a factor, doubt he will even finish.

Flanders and Roubaix make real men cry. If you go at anything less than 100%, they will kick your butt so bad as to teach you to show some respect and then run home to your mama with your tail between your legs.

As a 4 times winner, Boonen knows this.
