Peter Sagan adds to his palmares with a win at E3 Harelbeke, though it was Team Sky's Geraint Thomas who split the peloton, in the end Sagan timed his sprint perfectly to take the win.
Gent Wevelgem was won by Giant Shimano's John Degenkolb, beating FDJ's Arnaud Démare and Peter Sagan. In the women's version of the event, Lauren Hall claimed her first major victory.
In the Volta A Catalunya, Joachim Rodriguez took the victory, beating Alberto Contador by just 4 seconds with BMC's Tejay van Garderen in third.
The Criterium International took place in Corsica with AG2R's Jean-Christophe Péraud taking the win.
We also take a look at GCN's inner tube challenge, with Daniel Lloyd setting the inital pace at 1:05. Can you beat him? Post your video onto YouTube and drop us a message onto Facebook, Google+ or Twitter letting us know how you get on, and we'll pull your efforts together into the GCN innertube challenge!
We are also sad to report that UK cycling journalist legend, Steve Worland has passed away. Steve was a friend to many of us at GCN and will be sorely missed. Our thoughts are with his family.
