I would just like to know if it is like a Flanders Cyclosport (ie: one that is at your own pace and leasure) or is this one more like the Tour's Etape which is sort've a race? I tried signing up for the Amstel Gold Cyclosport but I was an hour too late. All 12,000 registrations were filled in 40 minutes this year...ouch! Any info on Mooiste is appreciated.

I've been here and there, but my riding has taken a serious hit since the snow started. Because of my job, the only time I really have to ride during the week is very early in the morning, and even my considerable lack of common sense and self-preservation can't get right with the idea of rding early in the morning, in the dark, in slick dangerous trail conditiosn in sub-freezing temps alone.

So I got up but my riding gear on and rode to work. I was actually sweating after I got down the mountain and started pedaling.

I just picked up a Kurt Kinetic Road Machine from Frank's for 140 euro. It was special order but only took two days to get here. That's a smokin' price for a usually $300+ USD machine, and no waiting on the APO.
