'Dale Posted March 9, 2014 Share Valverde the strongest rider in the race, rode his luck a bit in the finish but also showed character and experience to close out the win and hold off the bunch.

Cellar Posted March 9, 2014 Share There's a daily Paris-Nice highlights package on Superb Sport too! Yeah, seeing Nacer in skin tight clothes on a road stage doesn't do it for me. Great weekend for Valverede. This does appear to be the best form he's been in ever. Might finally be a big stage race year for him.

kosmonooit Posted March 9, 2014 Share What was Pozzovivo thinking in wheelsucking Valverde towards the end when the pelaton was charging towards them? He lost the podium ... Stunning ride into Rome.

kosmonooit Posted March 17, 2014 Share Apparently Boonen attacked Stybar yesterday on the final stage of Paris-Nice, I just missed it, but Sean Kelly was saying it probably was a mistake, otherwise they seem to have a good team dynamic going. If they can get Cav to the line, fine, otherwise they have a few other options.

jcza Posted March 17, 2014 Share Kittel wont race MSR, degenkolb wil race. Confirmed? I thought with all the other top sprinters there Kittel would also be there.
