Gen Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 WEATHER FORECAST FOR SUNDAY So depending on who you are, the weather report for Sunday is either looking great or crap. 22 degrees, overcast and raining, and 20 - 30 km/h winds. Not the greatest news for sprinters, but the Classics stars will be rubbing their hands in glee. Slippery cobbled climbs & tight wet city roads, the finale will be something else with attacks from all over the place in these 4km to the finish. In fact, I think the attacks will start at the end of the penultimate lap because more than a few guys will think they have a chance from 20km out... The final 4 km:SAGAAAN.

Mntboy Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 SAGAAAN.Well America was nice to him last time round. So maybe the lightning strikes twice for our favorite person from the Czech Republic!

So maybe the lightning strikes twice for our favorite person from the Czech Republic!And also Slovakia [emoji85] They love him there in yank land.. and wet and cooler Temps will suit him very well.. Just remember to look for him in blue
Gen Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Shame it really sucks that he isn't one Belgium ... or any country that can field more than 2 riders.. little support for him, it will be very hard
Gen Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Of course old Valverde will like to spoil the party.. he will like the course..
tombeej Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Are they finishing where the ITT has been finishing. . Or a different finish.. cause those 'cobbles' I've seen looks more like my driveway paving. The Libby Hill cobblestone climb
Gen Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 The Libby Hill cobblestone climbAaah thx for that
tombeej Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Of course old Valverde will like to spoil the party.. he will like the course.. He shouldn't be able to walk after a big classics season, then the TDF followed by the Vuelta. But then again, he's Valverde, the eternal Energizer Bunny....
HBO Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 The Libby Hill cobblestone climb Ah, the spez is in front
Gen Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 He shouldn't be able to walk after a big classics season, then the TDF followed by the Vuelta. But then again, he's Valverde, the eternal Energizer Bunny....Ja.. he looked very tired towards the end of the Vuelta.
NotSoBigBen Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Mart can you give some updates please? Have no TV access sadly .....
HappyMartin Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Cool. Will be quiet to start I think. Lots of guys I never heard of. Michael Hepburn off first and he is away.
HappyMartin Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Looks like good conditions. Some cloud cover and hardly a breeze.
