Climbs? the Alps are climbs... Cav will get over them, my bet is getting himself in an early break, the rest is one clever sprint and the rest will be history. The reason I say a break is the way to go, as many riders will have his race number written on there handlebars so to be such a marked man will make things rough if kept to the end. I'm sure a few locals would love to pull one over this sprint sensation... (wink wink).

Strange how few people know that the Argus pulls a whole BUNCH of Euro pros every year!  They just do it very silently and out of the lime light.

If I remember correctly one of them made a break and with like a km to go started checking behind himself, getting ready to salute, then a fast approaching pack ate him up with 100m to go.

CSA is a representative body of UCI. All rides should be sanctioned by that body. Especially if UCI riders want to take part. Not just an SA thing. Big issue in USA especially in MTB'ing.

 

There are bigger politics at play with PPA not wanting to be part of/sanctioned by CSA.

 

As always, all parties have the interests of cycling at heart !!!!!!
