Milan-Sanremo

[Susan Westemeyer]

Anyway, as much as cycling manager produces suprising results, none of them are as suprising as cycling in real life. Always suprises happening there

I think we can all agree with that statement 100 percent!

After all the fuss about EBH's sprinting at Tirreno, they look to have added some experience to their train, for the opening classic.

I'm praying for someone to crack the mould, so I'm backing Mr October, to carry on where he left off.

1.- Boonen
2.- Bennati
3.- Pozzato

That pic needs to go in the classic photos thread, I love it!

As for the weather today, I guess it probably should favour the riders from Northern Europe, so Boonen, EBH, Cav, perhaps?

The breakaway of Fabrice Piemontesi (Androni Giocattoli), Aristide Ratti (Carmiooro NGC) and, Diego Caccia (ISD – Neri) is crusing along with a lead of 11:20.

Caccia on the attack again. Is he from the Italian part of David Boucher's family?

 

[craig1985]

Fascinating -- don't they look at a starting list?

Susan

The impressive bit about my game is that Valverde is still racing in Italy, and this is after I d/l a program that updated all the teams, riders, races etc.

 

[sometriguy]

Excuse my ignorance, but do we put our picks in this thread?

I'm starting to think that it maybe possible that Boucher, Caccia, and Machado are all related.

You can if you want to, but if you want to enter the competition, you will have to put your picks in that thread. It won't open for another hour.

Interesting choice with van avermaet susan. What's your thinking with him?

Has anyone had success following the forums or the live report from their mobile, specifically blackberry?

101st Milano-Sanremo

Does any one know were I can see the start list?

Not necessarily who I think will win, but good for a bet. He is playing the joker role for Omega Pharma Lotto today.

And of course Les chose Davis: Australians!

I guess he can sprint after hills. OPL have a few otions. An outside bet.

Yeah, at those odds not a bad bet. So is Ballan IMO.

 

[Susan Westemeyer]

Thanks Sue

Susan, not Sue. CN gets confusing, we have a Susan Westemeyer and a Sue George.

Peloton is riding piano whilst the break is 21:35 ahead.

Not everyone thinks Cavendish is sand bagging.

"I'm liking Laura's pick of Breschel. Could win from a small to medium pack of riders. Cav = no chance! Has as much chance as Kenny van Hummell winning the Tour!" - Andy from Brisbane.

OUCH!

Famous last words.
