Should we throw a pre-season prediction session down?

 

Still too early I think. First race is 23 March (Milan - San Remo)

 

I would see to see the guys in action before making my choice

Anyone have any idea how we can push SS to show Flanders... it's just as awesome as Roubaix!

Would happily trade one Flanders viewing for 64 x Tour of Oman/California's etc

I enjoy the Tour of California

Yeah, just before MSR we lay it all on the line...

 

Could actually be fun to do a little comp:

We do a once off season prediction up front and then before each race we pick three riders and score according to how they position on the day?

 

Winner get's a genuine, limited edition, signed... ego boost :lol:

You guys think our boy Impey will feature?

 

Gerrans is possibly targeting Tour of Flanders.

Impey will most likely be a servant to Gerro'

Who knows?

van Sommeren took Paris Roubaix glory a few years back as a servant to the big names at Garmin'

Must be favorite for Milan - San Remo with Cancellara.

 

The final bit of the route has changed entirely with an additional climb other than the Poggio.

Long and steep enough to rule out many a big thighed rider.

Gonna be very very dramatic.

Not same as 2013 then?

Maybe some of the boys that spend more time on their computers than riding bikes can figure out how to make the competition work. It can work along the same lines as Superbru. We will just call it Super(sp)oke or something along those lines.

 

That would be nice having the points leaders on the side of the screen on the hub, just like the supersport website.

 

Happy programming.

Mostly, but another climb added in the final bits.

A significant climb.

Yup, the new route hasn't gone down well with the fans or the local press. Probably been more popular if they'd tried to dress the pope in a neon shell suit and sunnies for the christmas speech.
