Milan-San Remo 2016

[GdaG]

Less than a week to go, squads are up on PCS so lets start firing!

 

[Billie]

heard rcs might cancel it cause there was some snow on Turchino last month #extremeweatherprotocol

 

[RedheadDane]

Isn't it normally on Sunday? How come it's Saturday this year?

Traditionally was on Saturday. After a few years on Sunday, RCS moved back to Saturday to gain more exposure in Italy (football games on sunday afternoon).

Weather forecast?

 

[Eshnar]

Re:

Weather forecast?

Snow above 150m according to Vegni's weather forecast.

According to all others, sunny, 10-15 C

 

[Hugo Koblet]

Two general rules:

a) Cancellara always finishes on the podium
b) Sagan always finishes second

So podium will look like:

1) ?
2) Sagan
3) Cancellara

 

[May0maniac]

No Le Manie, so it's just another boring race for the sprinters.

 

[jsem94]

Great weather probably, so... 50 man bunch sprint.

1. Gaviria


I really hope he can cope with the distance. If he is there in the final he can beat Kristoff in a sprint.

 

[TMP402]

Ben Swift to do something odd.

 

[Arredondo]

1. Bouhanni
2. Ferrari
3. Pippo

 

[BigMac]

Re:

Jempy Drucker, GVA Vs. Cancellara, Bonifazio

1. Bouhanni
2. Ferrari

Having to sprint alongside these two should be extra motivation to attack.

 

[Samamba]

Gallopin
Just to piss off Contador fans.

 

[Flamin]

Can someone close this thread and let Eshnar or so make a proper one?

 

[BigMac]

Re:

When someone opens a proper race thread with info and everything, sure. Be it Esh or whoever.

 

[SafeBet]

Wellens, with Gallopin chasing him all the way down from the Poggio but never bridging.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

GvA will destroy the bunch sprinters hope this year.

Go Greg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mr.White]

Matthews vs Bouhanni vs Kristoff if it's a 20+ riders sprint, Sagan, Cancellara or GVA in case of a smaller group

 

[May0maniac]

Tommeke will attack on the Poggio, a few guys will follow him, but he'll win the sprint.
Hard to look past Bling and Kristoff, Bonifazio could finish on the podium.

 

[jaylew]

I hate this parcours. It'll likely be a bunch sprint. Canc, GVA, Stybar and a couple others will try something but the sprinters teams will pull them back. Sagan will be there too and kill his legs for the bunch sprint.

Gav, Kristoff, Bouhanni, or maybe Bling ftw.

[Escarabajo]

Where is the parcours?

 

[DBotero]

Kristoff-EBH-Swift

 

[Escarabajo]

I am afraid Gaviria lacks depth!
