Another missed opportunity for British news channels and papers

So Mark Cavendish - current World Champion, one of the highest-profile British sportsmen of the day and the highest profile British cyclist since Tom Simpson (and, arguably, of all time) - achieves the first ever British victory in Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, one of the most important European races. That'll be all over the news, surely?

Er- apparently not. You need to look halfway down the page on BBC Sport until you find a link to the story. Nothing at all on Sky Sports, although you'd have thought that as the big name sponsor of Cav's team  Sky had a vested interest in promoting the win.

Even The Scum isn't paying attention, despite the fact that any Cav story offers opportunity to print a reader-pleasing picture of Peta. The Grauniad's got a mention halfway down the page while The Daily Fascist places it right down near the end, which is understandable for them, really: after all, any write-up on the race is going to have to mention Belgium at some point, and just seeing the name of the country gets your average Mail-reading scumbag so worked up they risk a heart attack. Killing your readers is not sound business sense, so we can let them off this time (let's not forget that The Mail was the only British paper to support the Nazis, however). The Daily Star has it right there on the first page of the website - near the bottom, admittedly, but they get points nevertheless (and one extra for the "Whitney mum haunted" headline further up). The Star is famously owned by pornographer Richard Desmond, and even his filthiest and most offensive publication The Daily Express is in on the action, albeit at the very bottom of the page. We didn't check The Times because you have to pay for that, and as far as we're concerned Rupert Murdoch has plenty enough money already.

Seriously, people! You are missing out here! Cav has everything a major celebrity needs - he's alright to look at (even "Quite good-looking," says Mrs. Cyclopunk, "for a cyclist"), he's got cheeky chappy style by the barrowload and he's very, very good at what he does, though talent is apparently not a necessity for celebrities these days. Cycling is massively popular in Britain right now and it's getting bigger - in fact, it's almost as popular here as it has been in France for several years, and there's a huge potential audience waiting for you to provide them with the stories.

All aboard the Sky train!

"Jered Gruber ‏ @jeredgruber
It's funny when something lives up to the hype, tales, and stories. Belgian racing is everything you've heard. All true, no exaggeration."

Even in the early stages of this year's Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, World Champion Mark Cavendish looked the most likely winner - Team Sky had sent him to the race with seven strong riders, six of them experienced Classics capable of winning this race for themselves (as one of them, Chris Sutton, proved last year). Halfway through they'd got themselves arranged into a clever tactical layout with Cav well-protected to preserve his freshness when the breakaway was pulled back in, but enough of them near the front to have a shot at the line if the break made it.

With 50km to go, the outcome looked even more certain. By now Sky looked as though they riding a team time trial - turning a big ring, eating up the miles and paying little attention to the break that had split into weaker, competing groups and thus doomed itself. They waited until the 20km to go point before picking up the pace and beginning to put pressure on Lotto-Belisol; home to Andre Greipel, the only rider in this race with a chance of stopping Cav.

A small amount of lost time with a slightly fudged right corner as the Manx star avoided street furniture made no difference and by the time they entered the final 5km the team had formed a spearhead at the front of the peloton, too confident in their abilities to trouble themselves unduely when FDJ briefly took over. In the end, it was an easy win - Sky's strategy ran like clockwork, and Cav hardly broke into a sweat as he crossed the line to take his first victory of 2012. FDJ's Yahueni Hutarovich tried to catch him, but by the time he'd got his front wheel level with the Missile's back wheel the 26-year-old was already sitting up in celebration. There are those who will complain it wasn't the exciting, heroic triumph that fans expect from the Classics, but it was a superbly clever one - because it worked so well and for the psychological effect: if Cav can do that without even trying, what can he do when he makes an effort?

That a British rider has won a Classic would always be good news; but the fact that it was Cav is better still. Right now, cycling is on the cusp of becoming bigger than it has ever been in this country; perhaps bigger even than it has been in France for many years. Cav is the highest-profile rider since Tom Simpson, maybe even more so, and today's victory will make it onto more than a few news reports tonight - each time that happens, the British public like cycling just a little bit more. Nice one, Mark. Tom would've been proud.

(results below)

Mark Cavendish is the first British rider to win this race and the first current World Champion
to do so since Johan Museeuw in 1997. It's also the second win here in two years for Sky as
Christopher Sutton won last year.

Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne and live streams

Oude Kwaaremont many only reach 111m above sea level,
but like several of the hills in this race it's one of the most
respected climbs in cycling

The Omloop Het Nieuwsblad, the opening event of the Belgian cycling season, is a race for the hard men and women of cycling with its tough hills and bone-shattering cobbles. Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne has more of the same, but less of it. Make no mistake, however - this is not an easy race for anyone. There are some steep hills along the 195km parcours, but with the last one some 50km before the finish line this is a competition that can suit the sprinters; which is a likely reason that in the 67 years the two races have been run nobody has ever managed to win both in a single season.

The race starts in Kuurne but never quite reaches Brussels, turning back at Galmaarden some 25km from the capital. It's on the return that it encounters the low but very steep climbs of the Flemmish Ardennes, taking in some of the same hills as the Omloop but adding a few others for good measure; several of them approaching or even surpassing a 10% gradient. The first is Edelareberg, 28km from the start; then there's La Houppe after 86km; Kanariebeg at 94km; Kruisberg at 99km; Oude Kwaaremont at 105km and cobbled for the last 1.6km; the Cote de Trieu at 119km, Tiegemberg at 131km and finally the entirely cobbled Nokereberg at 142km.

Predictions: Several teams are sending the biggest of their hitters to this race - when riders such as Tom Boonen (winner in 2007/2009 and the only rider still active to have won two editions), Andre Greipel and Greg Van Avermaet are competing, it's exceedingly difficult to make a prediction. However, take a look at Team Sky: they have Flecha, an excellent Classics rider albeit one who will be tired from the Omloop; Ian Stannard, who was third here in 2010; Christopher Sutton, who won this race last year; Jeremy Hunt, third in 2009; Mathew Hayman, a rider who has specialised in the cobbled Classics for almost a decade and Alex Dowsett, young, eager and looking for glory. Six good, strong riders, each of them capable of winning this race on a good day.

They also have Mark Cavendish. We all know that Cav can't climb, but while the hills of the K-B-K are steep none are long in comparison to the giants of the Grand Tours - and while it takes him a long time and a lot of effort to get up those, get up them he does. If Sky can get him to those last 50km in one piece, protect him until the finish line is in sight and then light the blue touchpaper, there's only one possible outcome. 

It'll be tough to do it, but would leave no doubts that Sky is now complete and ready to take on the world. That is a prize that will encourage heroic effort. (It'll also be the third anniversary of the day when Team Sky was announced to the world, so what better way to celebrate?)

(available from 14:00 CET/13:00 GMT, 26th of February)

Tickers: If you're stuck at work and your idiot boss thinks that watching cycling isn't important, you can still follow the action via a live ticker (which is far harder for anyone to notice on your screen). Several are available, including some that autotranslate into English with varying and sometimes amusing degrees of success, such as Sporza and Sport.be. Cycling News has one in English, though in our experience they're not as quick with the updates as the foreign tickers.

Weather: Little change from the Omloop, which benefitted from what was probably about the best weather a Belgian February can offer. If anything, a little warmer due to lighter wind. While it may be cloudier, no rain is expected.
