No sign of Strade Bianchi though. That wet day on the Giro was unforgettable.
No one tipping a winner yet though? Kreuziger, Schleck, Porte (got to have an Aussie pick)

Livestreaming hopefully from RAI for me. That is how I watch the Giro last year, except for the few stages shown live by SBS

Given he has form, I'll tip Rogers.ft_critical wrote:No one tipping a winner yet though? Kreuziger, Schleck, Porte (got to have an Aussie pick)
“When I’m in good condition and there’s a week-long race with a time trial, I know I can win them all. I’d be crazy not to concentrate on that.â€
This appears right up his alley. More from that article....

is any of the Paris Nice live however?ft_critical wrote:Eurosport on foxtel gentlemen. 1hr of Paris-Nice repeated 20times so no excuse for missing it. Oh except if it is like the Tour of the Algarve which got canned and ruined the scheduling of the Tour of Oman.

It really has been a fantastic start to the year by Australian riders. Michael Matthews win in the first stage of the Vuelta Ciclista went unmentioned here also.

Hopefully an Aussie can pull off one of the big spring races.

Interesting near the end of the article, the part about next weeks Milan-San Remo and Cavendish. "If" Cav is at the front he'll "probably" help him. Maybe I'm reading too much into it but I think he'd be happy to see Cav dropped on the Poggio
