Trittico Lombardo 2014

[Geraint Too Fast]

A change of date for the triptych this year and a nice set of start lists as a result, including Nibali, Sagan, Ulissi, Costa, Modolo, Konig, Rebellin, Finetto, Colbrelli, Ewan, Power, etc.


16th September - Coppa Bernocchi (1.1) - Start List

17th September - Coppa Agostoni (1.1) - Start List

18th September - Tre Valli Varesine (1.HC) - Start List

 

[trevim]

Ah finally my beloved italian autumn classics! I hope Rui Costa can take Agostoni. Anyway they can't suck more than the Ardennes.

Purtroppo

There seems to be no live coverage this year by the RAI
Here are the start times of delayed broadcast on Rai Sport2 (Geo-restricted)

Tue 16 22:30 Coppa Bernocchi
Wed 17 23:00 Coppa Agostoni
Thu 18 22:30 Tre valli varesine [Edit Live Rai3 at 15:00 - thanks Mellow Velo]


Sun 21 22:00 Gran Premio Industria Commercio e Artigianato

(as I said in the General Thread)

 

[Dazed and Confused]

yep, too bad about the lack of live coverage. Please post any links to highlights if found.

Today Viviani will get his behind over the hill 7 times and win.
But maybe Ewan can challenge. Sagan, what about him? His form should improve just in time for the worlds.

27 teams will start, anybody with just the slightest touch of Italy will be in Legnano today.

Hang on, help may be at hand.

Is it not back as it was a couple of years ago?
Rai's tv guide for Thursday on Rai Tre shows this:


15:00 Ciclismo: Trittico Lombardo - Tre Valli Varesine - 17:15

 

[nuvolablu]

Yes, one week ago they confirmed live coverage for tre Valli Varesine and 1 hour highlights for Bernocchi and Agostoni
Ruffoni is my bet for today, he was very strong in ToB

The route of Tre Valli was chosen by Cassani to resemble the one of Ponferrada. After the race he will officially announce the nine men for the worlds

Coppa Bernocchi about to start.

Edy Grosu ftw

 

[metaCYCLE]

Edy Grosu ftw

I second that!

 

[Rollthedice]

I second that!

I double second that!

 

[TourOfSardinia]

1 lap to go
3'55" the lead for De Ketele e, Marycz, Ewan e Valencia - I think.
Cannondale of Elia Viviani & Peter Sagan forcing the pace
Peloton fractioning into pieces

 

[Geraint Too Fast]

Sounds like a hard race.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

-25km Behind the leading quartet, are 19 riders:
at 1'18"
Nibali, Power, Ulissi, Pozzato, Viviani, Koren, Sagan, Finetto, Ponzi, Taborre, Viganò, Selvaggi, Seldrayers, Delaplge, Gerard Machado, Lagutin, Zakaryn and Chinello

apparently

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Proper racing it seems.
Damn, the kid Ewan in the break again.
No armchair ride for the lad. Learn the hard way.

 

[TourOfSardinia]

-20km only Valencia & Power now left at the front

Marycz & De Ketele fell back in the Nibali group

 

[TourOfSardinia]

Seems Nibali was out solo but has been caught
while Androni Venezuela.are bring the 2nd group back
looks like all back to square one.

 

[DNP-Old]

Trionfa Viviani.

1. Viviani
2. Pozzato
3. Ponzi
4. Vigano
5. Finetto

[Mellow Velo]

19 YO Robert Power: wow.
There were 6 attacks on the lead group inside the final 10kms.
3 from Vincenzo Nibai and 3 from junior!

Not your usual Coppa Bernocchi, that's for sure.

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Coppa Agostoni has started.
