For those of you who read this blog regularly, you will know that I love a good pun. This title examplifies that perfectly. After catching Wesley Kreder (Wanty-Gobert), this trio of Philippe Gilbert (Decenunick-Quick Step), Nils Politt (Katusha-Alpecin) and Rudiger Selig (Bora-Hansgrohe) decided it was their turn to go on the attack. With Gilbert in the group (a former World Champion) the peloton was going to pay attention to this move. Selig was there to monitor the move for his team leader (and defending champion of Paris Roubaix), Peter Sagan.
