jcza Posted February 20, 2014 Share MILAN (VN) — Milano-Sanremo organizer RCS Sport will meet with the local government next Wednesday in an attempt to solve its Pompeiana problem. Poor road conditions and a recent landslide may force the Giro d’Italia owner to cut the new climb scheduled to debut in the March 23 race. “We are trying in every way possible to save Pompeiana,” Mauro Vegni, RCS Sport’s technical director for cycling, told VeloNews.

'Dale Posted March 1, 2014 Share It's still QuickStep on the front and controlling the pace of the peloton. They won't want to catch the break this early so chances are that they'll sit up for a fraction once the first flurry of climbs has been taken.
