"Oh shit, fucked up again" was the thought that briefly went through Mads Pedersen's mind as found himself attacking alone almost 60 kilometres from the finish of Gent-Wevelgem on Sunday. It could be a stupid move, he thought.
Ninety minutes later, though, the Dane crossed the line solo in Wevelgem to win the race for the third time, in the most impressive manner yet. A brave move, maybe even a crazy one, but not stupid.
