As far as the Keepers are concerned (and those already arrived for KT15) the real race action on the cobbles and for the 2015 VSP starts right here in Flanders with the Easter Sunday edition of de Ronde van Vlaanderen.
And not only does the kassien bring out the big guns looking to pick up a Monument, it brings out the real big guns as far as the VSP Grand Prize goes too. We are proud and more than a little bit excited to announce Jaegher as the major sponsor of this year’s competition. Yes, the winner of the overall pointscore will receive a custom made and painted Interceptor frame in Columbus Spirit steel, just like the one that I am riding and loving right now… check it out here, it’s an amazing frame and one that you will treasure forever.
So now your picks count more than ever, study the start list, think which of the cobble specialists or maybe a wild card will win in Oudenaarde, and most importantly don’t Delgado.

I think I got lucky 13. I'm more than a little surprised. Disappointed for Thomas.
Nice to finally be rewarded for my faith in Kristoff this season.
Clearly, I am no expert judging by my picks.
DANG switched out Terpstra for Stybar - got 2 out of the top 5 at least
I need to stop picking with my head instead of the heart.
Kristoff is just so strong though. Felt bad for Terpstra. Had to see that ending coming as he sat on his wheel for the last kilometer.
I missed Vanmarcke losing contact with the lead group (I watched him trying and failing to get back on). Anyone know what happened?
@Steampunk
Eurosport thought it was a mechanical, although they missed it, as he fought to get back on really strongly

Good pick. Easy pick. Weather forecast was perfect and the sprinters were likely to be there at the end. By my guestimate, you and I moved up almost 45 positions in the peloton (insert smiley face here). I wonder now who's the odds-on favorite now for Paris-Roubaix?
Aaaaaaaaaand here are the standings. We've been drinking and having a fucking fantastic time - no time for ranking the VSP! We got some great shots of the men and women alike and we'll get those shots up soon.
Amazed that Kristof won, and after Terpstra rode like a Gerrans I'm so glad he sat up for the sprint like a respectable wheelsucker.

Rob, zero points? Jesus man, even I scored two points after picking VDB for the win. I am insane. Kristoff said he would win like Boonen had, just follow the best and beat them in the sprint. Not that I've seen any of the race yet. Balls.
