Wout van Aert started his road racing season in emphatic style at Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, finishing off a Jumbo-Visma one-two started by Tiesj Benoot. Richard Moore was in Gent for \'Opening Weekend\' and he joins Lionel Birnie and Daniel Friebe to discuss the beginning of the classics campaign.
\\n
\\nWe also dissect Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, which ended in the predictable sprint showdown between Fabio Jakobsen and Caleb Ewan but got there in far more surprising fashion.
\\n
\\nDaniel describes the concept of the \'cassoulet Taco\' as the worst fusion cuisine imaginable, we highlight some of the other stars of the cobbles, and wrap up the rest of the week\'s racing action, which has been dominated by a handful of teams.
\\n
\\nIn the final part, we discuss the Russian invasion of Ukraine and how it relates to professional cycling after Gazprom, the team sponsored by the Russian state-owned energy company, starred at the UAE Tour.
