[Hugo87]

The new season excitement has begun for me, the field looks awesome as always.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

which south american will win this year. I hope again diaz

 

[Pentacycle]

Serpa did well before in this race, and in his Androni days he always was a huge force in early season races.

Tour de San Luis (2.1, Argentina): Nairo Quintana. Dayer Quintana, Andrey Amador, Beñat Intxausti, Fran Ventoso y Adriano Malori. 20-26 enero.

nice team by movistar.

top top top nairitoooo!

 

[Jason_Mercier]

This is between Vincenzo Nibali and Tejay Van Garderen. Southamericans... wanna see Julián Arredondo.

 

[Arredondo]

The race for the Colombians: Quintana, Arredondo, Atapuma, Betancur.

Curious to Chaves to, hopefully he is able to finish the race properly and become the old Chaves again in the second half of the season.

 

[Gloin22]

I doubt with a TT it's going be a race for Colombians. No one will come in great shape from big guns too, talking about GC.

Either someone like Diaz wins again, or European that can limit looses in mountains and dominate TT i.e. Tejay

At some point this season I want to see the Quintana's together take control of a race, drop everyone like their a bunch of sprinters, and ride in for an epic MTF stage win.

where? in the giro? I think not. Scarponi will be there togheter with Aru to put an end to this Quintana is a great climber myth

damn- the riders quality keeps getting better every year- I just hope the organization & mostly the 'BROADCASTING" could equal it.

as far the the GC? just NAIRITO

 

[Buffalo Soldier]

It seems OPQS thinks this is a flat race...

[Flamin]

Katusha will bring their A-team again _O_

Joaquim Rodríguez
Daniel Moreno

Arredondo had similar problems. Does not seem to be easy for Colombians to get visas....
