2013 Pro-cycling season thread

I love that last pic, you can see Viviani and Oss both thinking "I know he's talented but he really needs a new trick".

That wheelie at the top of Planche les Belle Filles was one of my highlights of last year.

I'd rather see him muscle his way to any win with brute force and a late break than watch a bunch sprint at the end of 300km.

Thanks BMMF.. You've ruined this thread for me..

I'm filled with guilt and self loathing.

Leave me out of it. You feel like that every day anyway. Why else would you be a racing cyclist?

Thank you.

cheers for linking that adoubletap

made by the guy (& production team) that also did this

#HipsterCav cameo too wowee.... 'it's like an opera reaching a crescendo, you know?'

Really enjoyed the documentary, including hipster Cav's analysis.

I also like the Cancellara v Sagan setting. Hopefully, the two will be just watching each other and some third rider will steal the race. E.g. Nibali attacks on the Poggio, Cancellara won't take Sagan with him and no one else is able/willing to catch.

Is there anywhere I could go and watch the race tomorrow in London? Or some streams that are not illegal or otherwise shit?

Tenderoni, lookmumnohands will be showing it up on old street, as will the rapha store on brewer st, also pretorius bikes, 2 drysdale st, just off kingsland road, round the back of hoxton square will be showing it as well, bike shop with coffee machines, not that big but they do have outdoor space as well..

Enjoy the race..

Thanks v much for the advice, lots of good opportunities then.

Cav has had a bit of an image make over hasn't he

Who let the Aussies in again?

We control everything. You just don't know it yet.

We stole everything.

From inrng comments, about Sanremo tomorrow – made me chuckle:

...a classic is like playing chess whilst moving at 50km/h and wearing wet clothes. And you’ve been pedalling hard for five hours already.

No

And someone's stolen Greg Henderson's bike from outside the team bus!

Lol agreed. Would be awesome if haussler won. He came so close in 2009.

Turchino snowing hard, talk of route changes edit or neutralising the descent

i think they should just be given a fat bike on the summit to finish the race on...

Turchino looks impassable.
