Excellent OP, OP, although I was also going to point out that you forgot about the Lombardia. The season's still real to me, dammit  e: also, and I know this was a group project, but the title is absolutely excellent. AGAB

There's literally no indication as to which way to go on a roundabout and everyone follows the camera bike, which goes the path of least resistance and pulls out of the race about a minute after that, and everyone's like "WELP"

I was gonna say "Nairo being a PCT faillord and Nacer being a WT faillord, count me in" but it turns out that Bouhanni will transfer away from Cofidis to Arkea Samsic next year. So I guess I can still say that, it's just that they both are on the team where dreams go to die

HappyCamperGL posted:How short does the stage have to be to a prologue cause that Budapest stage looks like a prologue to me. quote:2.6.006 A prologue may be included in stage races on condition that: Fun fact: it doesn't say explicitly anywhere in the rules that a prologue has to be the first stage. There's just two lines that go like "... the first stage (or prologue) ...", which just means that a prologue can be the first stage, not that it has to be. 21st stage prologue when??

Feels Villeneuve posted:didn't one of the recent Vueltas inexplicably end with like a 8km ITT 2014, but it was 9.7 km, so not a prologue I'm currently reading the notes on the Giro stages and it's very  quote:The stage follows almost the same route as the famous Nove Colli amateur sportive. Upon reaching the foot of the Apennines, after leaving Cesenatico, the route undulates continuously to clear the nine hillocks of the sportive, five of which will award KOM points. Over the last 30 km, the peloton will ride across the plains, before reaching the seafront in Cesenatico. Love to undulate continuously to clear nine hillocks quote:A colossal Alpine stage with 5,000 m vertical altitude gain, crossing over to France. The riders will pass Colle dell'Agnello, Col d'Izoard and Monginevro, before the final climb up to Sestriere. According to many, this is a modern reinterpretation of the legendary Cuneo-Pinerolo. Many people are saying this!

serious gaylord posted:The UAE tour has been cancelled and its unlikely that Milan San Remo and Strade Bianchi will go ahead due to the Corona Virus. Good riddance to everyone except Strade Bianche. On the other hand, I have been thinking of popping over to Belgium/the Belgian part of France for the Ronde and Paris-Roubaix - if those get cancelled I'll be very cross.

I'm watching the Movistar netflix thing right now and just got to the part where Nairo commits suicide-by-non-communication on the Tourmalet, and I'm glad that it all was exactly as dumb as I thought at the time. Like, no extenuating circumstances whatsoever, just a team finding out that Nairo is complete garbage in real time, as a documentary team is filming them. I love it e: I also enjoy how completely  Landa is 100% of the time

I didn't see any of the Vuelta a Burgos except that Remco™ won - how do they do finishing straights these days, spectator-wise? Assembling large crowds of shouting Spaniards/Italians sounds pretty unwise.
