Omloop Het Nieuwsblad next Saturday, and Strade Bianche a week later

I've had a lot going on these past couple months, but I just realized that the so called northern classics are just about upon us. Excited Now I just have to make time watch it!

interested to see how Wout Van Aert does. fresh off a cyclocross world championship win. I don't expect much, to be honest. he's an incredible talent, but he's only been training for the spring classics for a week now. two pretty different disciplines...

THEN AGAIN...

Zdenek Stybar won the cyclocross world championships in 2014 and then had some pretty decent road results. 7th in MSR, 5th in PR, etc. so you never know...

yes, stybar was ~5 years old than WVA is. So, will be interesting. The best guys are likely still a few weeks away from peaking. So, depending on how he set up his training for the season and Worlds, he may just be on better form...

Always a fun story line to be found this time of year
