I hope this isn't a omen of the day to come. Not exactly what I wanted to read over this morning's tea. We got lucky with New Coke when the marketing folks realized change for change sake wasn't all it was cracked up to be and Coke Classic was brought back. It might be an exciting race no doubt, but it's not really Flanders.

True it is still Flanders, and it will be a great race. I shoulda said it's not the Flanders we are familiar with from previous races. Ironic that my excitement comes from the same old same old regarding where the key selections are made. There will obviously be new selection points and we'll know them after watching the race (those unfamiliar with the new geography) but as a friend once asked me wouldn't sex get boring if it were the same each time. I guess that all depends what we like during sex.
