    Transfers and Rumours 2014 > 2015

    Gazzetta reported that Gatto has signed a two year deal, but it's not official by now, while Gavazzi is near to Neri-Sottoli. Yes I read Venezuela is set to sponsor Neri-Sottoli but nothing is yet official. On the 30th of october Androni-Giocattoli will hold a press conference with...

    Transfers and Rumours 2014 > 2015

    Gazzetta reported that Oscar Gatto is near to Androni. It would be a very good signing for Savio's team.

    Rate the 2015 Tour route!

    4/10 The ITT and TTT should have been swapped, the ITT is too short and the TTT is too long considering that is relatively deep in the race and some team could face withdrawsa causing their gc riders time losses. The mountain stages are too short and they lack a mitical queen stage to remember.

    Rate the 2015 Giro route!

    For me it's a 7. It's not a very creative course, but it's a good course. Maybe some of the mountain top finish could seem weak on paper but in my opinion it's better a long climb not so steep (previewed by some other climbs) than a garage ramp Vuelta's style that doesn't make a lot of...

    The Best Solo Wins of 2014

    Yes I agree. I haven't seen the Us open cycling championship of 2007 but with all the troubles and crashes he had during this year Giro he still managed to make it to the end.Tuft (second from bottom) and Hepburn (third from bottom) were the only two riders from OGE to finish the Giro and they...

    2014 Milano - Torino (1.HC) 193 km 01/10/14

    For me it' scandalous that the oldest italian race it's not brodcasted live. Ulissi would have been perfect for this course. Battaglin has the ability to do well in this race but given that he miss the worlds I assume that he's not in good form. Let's hope in some fireworks Vuelta's style from...

    The Best Solo Wins of 2014

    For me Kwiatowski but also Tepstra's solo into the Velodrome at Paris-Roubaix and De Marchi's win at Vuelta where he had time to celebrate with his DS before the line and with the dedication to Alfredo Martini

    Stage 16, San Martín del Rey Aurelio - La Farrapona, Lagos de Somiedo

    If any of the big teams want to control the race and avoid a win from the breakaway this stage will be a real battle. I think some of the big names (like Valverde) will attack on the descent. I don't think that riders like Valverde or Purito will gain on this stage if they attack on the final...
