Brabantse Pijl is a pretty exciting race because it's sort of unpredictable - there's no build-up like there is for cobbled classics, so we don't know who's on form, and the roster of puncheurs/attacker-climbers who can do well is very long. Because it's exciting and unpredictable it's often hard to watch - it's a lot harder to tell what is a truly threatening move, what are decisive moments in the race.

Stybar wins!


damn, I was hoping Etixx was going to be shut out of the classics this season.

Stybar has dyed his hair, and gotten a totally different face ;)

Those EQS guys all look alike...









I wonder if they will make Sagan cut his hair???
