Coppa Bernocchi Oct 7/Tre Valli Varesine Oct 8/Gran Piemonte Oct 10

[Tricycle Rider]

These small Italian races are so annoying for fans of sh*t riders, I'm constantly refreshing trying to find out if my guy finished in the time limit or not, please just upload full results

Which rider?

(I'd like to know which pub Rogla and Remco ran off to, but still no word on that either.)

 

[Lequack]

Evidently so. Red Rick suggested Rogla went off to a pub in the middle of the race, Remco must have joined him.

I find it funny that R&R would now be drinking pals, resigned to .1 races where Pog is not riding and just sharing their troubles about how hard racing has become.

Evidently so. Red Rick suggested Rogla went off to a pub in the middle of the race, Remco must have joined him.

Probably they follow the forum and decided to settle the debate over a beer...or a wine.

Reportedly Roglic agreed to visit Remco's medal cabinet as he enjoys visiting different cabinets and Remco's being interested in ski jumping so Roglic is offering some lessons.

Completely agree. I've been waiting for ages to see if Cofidis managed to get some UCI points. So frustrating.

[Netserk]

A shame that the coverage started so late (and that they rode so fast), but that was a very nice chase to watch. Old-school, pure ciclismo.

 

[KZD]

Great sprint from Van Tricht, he beat some big names to get his first pro win. A shame for Lemmen though.

So much so that they are saying they might even cancel the race:

Thank you. The depression continues.

 

[RedheadDane]

Thank you. The depression continues.

What? They got points!

 

[Pozzovivo]

What? They got points!

Yes, ten of them. It's not nothing, but it's pretty damn close. I hoped for more in a 1.pro with a mediocre startlist.

 

[Wvv]

One year prolongation for Van Tricht at Alpecin!

 

[postmanhat]

Arrived in Varese on holiday today, specifically to see Tre Valli, and Lombardia later in the week.

It's been raining constantly and is set to continue. Possible the race won't go ahead now

I think the most thrilling thing about this race will be watching the weather forecast and seeing if the race takes place to begin with.

Please keep us posted seeing as you are already in the area!

Why can't they delay the race for 24 hours.

 

[RedheadDane]

Why can't they delay the race for 24 hours.

The local people might not like it too much if the roads are closed for an extra day. Shocking as it might sound, not everyone is a cycling fan.

There's also the possibility that the roads might simply not be passable tomorrow either, and if they are, they might need to be kept free for emergency vehicles.

Origin of the cancellation rumours is a Dutch Wielerflits article, and the only source it's based on is the weather forecast.

 

[RedheadDane]

Hey, @Berniece.
Maybe change the thread title to "103rd Tre Valli Varesine, October 8"... or, we could just... keep the title, but continue talking about TVV here...

 

[SafeBet]

The weather is awful, some roads are already flooded in the Milan area so I presume it's the same in Varese.

Sure, I can change this. Maybe next year we should just create 1 topic for the 3 races.

Well, the women's race is on, so unless the weather worsens significantly, the men's race will probably also go on as planned.

Not many will be on the roads today if the weather forecast is correct.

People are still gonna need to get to work.

Epic day if they let them race
