Re:

I have 3 different course lengths, 218km, 226km & 244km and 2 different start times, 9:10 and 10:20. Can anyone help me out here?

afaik is 226. start at 10.20 CET. timetable is here http://www.gazzetta.it/Speciali/TirrenoAdriatico/it/download/info_tappe/4/T04_cronotabella.pdf

...On an unrelated note, The Terminillo stage is at risk. Weather forecasts say snow. Meaning lots of snow.

maybe they can go 1000 km south and climb the Etna

Re: Re:

I refuse to believe that, or they must have a death wish. Contador will try today, not only to try and win but also to thin the list of contenders

I hope he will try if the Terminillo stage gets cancelled this might be his only chance

Re: Re:

Can't they finish lower on the mountain??

yes ofc. But it's to see *how much* lower.
In any case, I guess we'll know only tomorrow. If we're lucky and it starts snowing only while the race is underway I think they could go to the top like they did for the Tre Cime in 2013.

Re: Re:

Sagan most likely to get his win

I go with styby though

If you say Sagan it will be Sagan.

Yesterday you were spot on as well.

Think this is too hard for Sagan.

Styby and Greg might have a tough time too, but they can recover in the descent.

Purito for a longe range attack and a surprise win.

Contador attacking like *** and creating carnage, gets 2nd. Pinot 3rd.

Nope, sorry. For now the only people talking about it are in an Italian forum. But it's a legit remark, forecasts for the area are indeed bad. Afaik there's no official nor unofficial word from the organizers

AC had a mechanical. 57 to go.

 

[Netserk]

I don't care if it snows all night and all day, they are riding up the mountain not descending it. Just clear the road ahead of them and let them race and freeze.

Predictable that no one put any pressure on the mountain in the bunch. Original design was so much better...
