Eurosport doesn't seem to cover this weekend's Belgium racing live, anyone cares to drop a hint where to find live coverage (preferably via satellite) or torrents after the race?

unless someone would be kind enough to "invite" me to cyclingtorrents.nl - I've no access to the site since last year, and now it's closed circle only :|

Sagan seems to ride Tarmac, not Roubaix :)

Well, that sprint at omloop, it's like I watched the 2016 edition ! Sagan made a mistake but eh, it's a semi-classic, just warming up

That was pretty full on racing for the last 80-90k today…
How many crashes and huge pile ups? Hopefully no serious injuries.
Deserving winner, although it looked like Sagan had wilted a bit in the finale.
I hope to see Vanmarcke win a "major" this year, he's always thereabouts…..

They typically ride the Roubaix (or the equivalent for other manufacturers) only at Roubaix. Flanders cobbles aren't as rough, so standard bikes do just fine.

Sagan was by far the best rider in the race. Making the breaks, doing most of the work. Only when they ended up with 3 GvA and Sep started to really put in some work. He does a bit too much work. But it's probably training for him, I bet he got his focus on RVV and P-R.

Yeah, somehow he makes it look like he's on a training ride! Then you look at the faces being pulled by the riders behind him…..
Looked very windy at times, same forecast for tomorrow?

Boonen, Kristoff tomorrow maybe? If they're not too bruised….

Nice to see Sagan's WC jersey with the rainbow bands going all the way round

Meanwhile in Oman, Rui Costa looks lean. Could be one to watch for LBL?
