the Paris-Nice finish has a technical approach, but besides that it should be a sprint.

Tirreno-Adriatico on the other hand has a big climb in the last few km (pic related). Should eliminate Cavendish from the picture, odds are Gaviria will take it but I'm pulling for /greg/ for today.

>Quintana, Pinot and van Garderen in prime position after Tirreno-Adriatico opener -t. CN

Nairo's a lock for GC if he stays upright

not me, but here's my bike anyways

>>74581470
ty for the stream

who ya got at P-N?
thinking it is finallly kittelwinslol day

>>74581542
just going off my fantasy team roster it's probably not a hard enough day for degenkolb and matthews has no train, so realistically i'd say it's demare or kittel. greipel as the dark horse cos it's an uphill sprint but he's not really been in the mix.

>just for that, dubs confirms coquard

>>74581595
maybe it is finally Bennetts breakthrough year, and Kristoff should never be underestimated


fav team(s)?
Bora and ag2r here

>>74581633
I dont know anymore
Tinkoff is gone, so Bjarne Riis' team is gone.
I don't even know who to support anymore, I like Contador and Quintana, so probably Trek and Movistar

i root more for riders than teams but i'd say bmc from the big budget teams and also ag2r just for cardet. nibali rides with panache too and they have a decent roster but the bahrain merida prince guy is pretty questionable.

the wall is at 8 km to go fyi

split in peloton at P-N, 18.5km to go

>>74581633
Team Bahrain–Merida and their prophet Vincenzo Nibali (PBUH)

dat geraint thomas

>>74581839
i'm ok with this

>>74581845
thomas to win the giro y/n?

i think if he hadn't been a wingman for the last years he would have had a grand tour by now

>>74581863
giro is wide open atm I think, very real chance. none of the gt winners besides nibali are targeting it, right?

>cheeky 3rd place sprint by sagan

dayum
nice finish
if only they had kept thomas on their watch this would have been a great sprint for pe1er 2agan ithout thomas and dumoulin ahead

time for Paris Nizza

I don't know shit about cycling but I watched a doco about pantani so he's my fav

>>74581937
coke, hookers, and HGH

speaking of kill there's a triple roundabout approach to the finish today, topped with a hard right in the last km. so this might be carnage

based on what I've seen pro cyclists could really use a few trackdays or maybe a visit to CSS or something to figure out how to actually pick lines.

let's not talk about my first few stages of P-N, but things are looking up

>tfw scores haven't propagated to the leagues yet so idk how things are going vs. our friends at /r/peloton

Is it cool to ask some psi questions here?
