Milan-San Remo (*Spoiler*)

[raindog]

Alot of big names peaking for this weekend so it should be a right ding dong. Think I'll go with Fab for my FP though, I reckon he could get the job done this year.

Boonen will be riding one of those Specialized Venge things that Cav used last year. Do we know if Cav is still using one, or has he changed make of bike?

Oh yes, it might rain for the end of the race.

PS
how are we expected to work this in with an afternoon of 6Ns?

I have a feeling that there will be some big attacks on the Poggio to kill off the sprinters. There are too many good ones who could win if it stays together so I think the other teams will blow it apart. Goss, Cav, Boonen, Greipel etc
My virtual money is on Boassen Hagen but I'd not risk hard cash on it!

I certainly hope that Cav gets the win but I also would not bet on it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cancellara. After the Strade Bianchi, it is clear he is in form. And when he is in form, there isn't anyone who can stop him.

I'm opting for a sprinters victory. Who that sprinter is tho is anyone's guess.

 

[Mista Preston]

Agree with the sprint so it should be interesting to see if Sky can control it for Cav.

Ah - I always forget that MSR is on a Saturday, not the usual Sunday. Thanks for the reminder!

wiggins to hit the front on the poggio and keep everyone in check? how much control did high road have in 2009?

Yet again, due to crap broadband, I will not be watching. My race viewing is dependent on freeview channels showing it. And cycling does not figure highly on freeview channels' schedule.
