Fabian Cancellara took his third victory in the Tour of Flanders. With the Swiss on monumental form (groan), can he do the cobbled classics double at Paris-Roubaix?
The Drie Daagse De Panne is traditionally used as a warm up for the Tour of Flanders, Peter Sagan quite unintentionally took a stage, with Omega Pharma-QuickStep's Guillaume van Keirsbulck taking the overall.
Sep Vanmarcke may have been third in the Tour of Flanders, but he's a winner in our eyes with his post-Flanders tweet.
Tech of the week is the KASK Infinity helmet, which you may have seen modelled in our videos from Mallorca.
