That's back to back for the Belgian in his home country, pretty impressive. The race was filled with numerous crashes including a heavy deck hit by Thor Hushovd who hit the curb in the sprint for the final podium spot on his new "cobble" version Cervelo. Of course Big George Hincapie was caught out in this crash and missed out on a chance for the final podge spot....at least he finished this year.
Cancellera is forced to walk the top of the infamous Koppenberg after snapping his chain during the critical climb.
