Strade Bianche

Finally we’ve got a dry, sunny and even slightly warm weekend! The perfect weather to get on the bike and crush some miles! Unfortunately I’ve been hit by illness so am confined to home. No miles for me today so luckily it’s the Strade Bianche in around an hour so I’ll get my fix by watching a live stream of the pros showing us how it’s done.

I’d like to see Peter Sagan take it this year after he finished second in 2014, but there’s a strong field of contenders all looking to open their season account! Fabian Cancellara will be another big name to watch. The “white roads” of Tuscany, Italy are probably not the most fun to race on but they do make for some great viewing for us at home.

    Looks like the one time it’s better to be up front – at least for that stretch!

    Great race, what happened to Sagan? Did team sky turn up?

    1. Sky fielded a bit of a C-team apart from Stannard. Their main players are all in France for Paris-Nice starting today. They’re all going full-gas for Wiggins in his final stage race for the team against, errrrr, ummm, who else is racing there? Any big names? Anyone else fielding a strong team? OGE and BMC perhaps.

        Tirreno-Adriatico definitely looks like a better line up than Paris-Nice
