That's cool - sure do wish HR was on there, though. And an estimated 9,900 calories! Plenty of room in the calorie budget for the Stella Johan was drinking in celebration!

Good race by Garmin, but I would have liked to see the Fabian / Thor battle extend to the finish.

I watched it but thought it was kinda anticlimactic compared to last year when Fabian rode away by himself. I thought he was going to do it again until the little "discussion" with the other team car and then they fell back into the main group.

The 2 guys calling the race on Versus is what makes it really exciting to watch though.

I've watched it live and i am glad Johan Vansumeren has won this epic race.

Once did a mountainbike ride of approx 80 miles with lots of those cubble stone roads in it.
