The Classics...my favorite time of year on the cycling calendar

[firerescuefin]

Milan San Remo is great...but the Flemish and Ardennes classics are right around the corner...and I will sit transfixed in front of the monitor/tv the entire time.

+ Boonen and Cancellara are on form and Husholvd and Gilbert will be ready to go...as Bart Scott says ...."Can't Wait"

Paris Nice really wet my appetite this week and here's hoping Horner pulls it out in the TT at Tirreno Adriatico tomorrow.

Yeah, they're doing some sort of finishing loop 3 times or something. It is cool for the fans, because they can see the riders three times, but sort of compromises some of the other cooler bergs.

I'm not built to be a stage racer so all the 1-day races draw my attention much more than about anything else on the calendar (outside cross season!)

I'd LOVE to go ride P-R one of these days.

Anyone have any recommendations on websites for live broadcasts?

Yeah...I'm sure this'll be some sort of test run and muur will be back in next years edition. At least i hope so. Best tasting beer and brats are served in that little bar at top :beer:

Google steephill tv. It is where I go and it is free. Sometimes broadcasts in Italian or Flemish. Depends on the feeds. Try Rai TV (Italian TV). Also good.
