As anticipation builds for tomorrow’s Tour of Flanders, here are a few of the videos that have been doing the rounds this week.
First up, a quick reminder of how Peter Sagan won last year’s edition.

Not 100 per cent sure what he’s going on about, but here’s some nice footage of three-time winner Johan Museeuw riding the course. Like many people, he seems to have Sagan and Greg Van Avermaet down as favourites.

There’s a similar vibe in this mellow Canyon offering.
Ian Stannard talks about the particular joys of being a classics specialist.
Team Sky has also revealed some of the equipment changes it makes for these races.
BMC have gone with the standard recon ride videos.

#RVV It was calm on the Kwaremont this morning. Probably not so calm on Sunday! pic.twitter.com/8ep0ci8T3m

Finally, you’d assume that Tom Boonen knows every inch of these roads by now, but here he is taking a look at the Kapelmuur.

Alex has written for more cricket publications than the rest of the road.cc team combined. Despite the apparent evidence of this picture, he doesn't especially like cake.

Nothing new about zebra [or light controlled] crossing on roundabouts. Sheffield has had them for decades, possibly since the 1970s.

The Johann M video is strange. Is Flemish so difficult to understand that it has to have subtitles in the same language... or is it just for hearing impaired people who only speak Flemish?
Talking of cobbles I note Team Sky in the Stannard film spell it with just one 'b'. More of those weight saving marginal gains...
