It's Gilbert again!!!

Philippe Gilbert attacked on the Mur de Huy and just smashed the opposition.  Rodriguez and Sanchez in second and third respectively were well beaten.  Gilbert was sitting up and enjoying the crowds adulation well before the finish line and no way could the second and third placed men have caught him.  He is the most exciting rider in the peloton without a doubt.

It's a shame for Nico Roche who was forced to abandon after a crash today.  He is one of those riders you always want to see do well.   He's having a really poor early season so far and I hope it all comes good for the Tour in July.
