So Vingegaard comes fresh from his Algarve win to dominate yet another stage race. The others will have to settle for 2nd place or lower. O'connor and Almeida might try something though. And Buitrago has been in good form as well
Also notable is the TTT of 28 km, where Visma will take even more...
This is where the stage races start proper in Europe. We've had the Mallorca one day races, now it's onto the mainland. It's Spain so that means plents of climbing, and even a TTT.
Notable GC/allaround mentions: O'Connor, Carlos Rodriguez, McNulty, Almeida, Martinez, Vlasov, Bilbao, Buitrago...
One day classic for climbers. As always all the climbing talent is here, it's the final showdown between the best riders of this season.

I made this thread because i got tired of waiting for profiles of this race. Only...
Let the hype begin! It's a showdown between Roglic, in his all new Bora team, and Remco, before their real showdown at the TDF. But there's also a lot of other talent here.
Also notable is the TTT of 27 km, where Quickstep will take a lot of time.
Notable GC mentions: Evenepoel, Roglic...

Let the hype begin! Roglic is racing again, it has been annouced he is doing Tirreno! The race starts with a 11km flat ITT.
Notable GC mentions: Wout, Vlasov, MVDP, Mas, Hindley, Roglic, Adam Yates, Landa, Geraint, Almeida
Notable sprinters: Phillipsen, Jakobsen, Gaviria, Girmay, Wout...
The best non-monument race, which should by now be a monument. It's always exciting and hard racing, with lots of gravel and climbing.
Wout and Pog won't be here unfortunately, so can anyone beat Matthieu Van Der Poel?
Notable mentions: MVDP, Bilbao, Vlasov, Mohoric, Pidcock, Sheffield, Benoot...

It's La Flèche Wallonne! The race in which Valverde wins, and all the others come 2nd or worse. Can Pogacar, Alphillipe, Evenepoel, Vingegaard (and maybe Wout) and others do anything to prevent Valverde winning? The answer is no...

More hot racing this year. Last year's edition was cancelled because of Covid situation, but this year it's back! You've seen the Giro stage through Slovenia, now multiply that by 5! There will be fans coming out of the woodwork.
Tadej Pogacar is going to use this race as TDF preparation instead...
Well there was no thread so I made one.

He certainly made an impression this year. I caught his performance last year at Tour of Slovenia when he was still riding for Gazprom.
This year he got picked up by Astana and the rest is history!
