Sunday is such a good Classics day! Over in Belgium, there's
Gent-Wevelgem, but the big women's race of the day is Round 2 of the
Road World Cup - the Trofeo Alfredo Binda-Comune di Cittiglio. It may
not have cobbles, but it has lots of hills, and always explosive
racing.

The 2012 classics campaign did not start the way BMC Racing would have
liked. The team’s new superstars — Thor Hushovd and Philippe Gilbert —
were out of the running for the season opener at Milan-San Remo.
Hushovd didn’t start while Gilbert crashed on the Cipressa.

It’s a Belgian WorldTour race featuring the renowned cobblestone climbs

Fabian Cancellara and Tom Boonen will again be the pre-race favorites.

As the date for the US Pro championships gets nearer I have a feeling
that this will be the last time Greenville will host the race. The race
has been in the Southeast for seven years and prior to that in
Philadelphia ever since they handed out professional road race national
championship jerseys.

Two
months on from his horrific crash in the opening stage of the Tour Down
Under, Lotto-Belisol's Jurgen Roelandts is still several weeks away
from a return to racing and is yet to receive the all clear from his
doctors. The 26-year-old Belgian suffered a fractured vertebrae in his
neck and a clogged blood vessel in his brain following a spill with
multiple riders in Adelaide.

The Ventus II gets 15% lighter than the original. The revised base bar
has shaped recesses for the arm rests to keep them from rotating out of
line, and the handhold shape is modified and gets new grips to prevent
slip.
RBAction:
Riding at high speed in the draft of a
scooter simulates the speed and intensity of racing. But unlike racing,
the rider has full control over the workout’s duration and intensity.
Most of the top European professionals motor pace multiple times per
week to train their ability to pedal a big gear at a high
cadence—something you can’t do without either racing or motor pacing.

“I
hope they don’t do like last year. It’s never been my tactic to just
follow one guy. Of course, if you give Fabian five seconds, it’s hard
to get it back, but I’m not going to be the guy who is always behind
him. If he attacks I’ll have to follow him, but I’m not a guy like
[Filippo] Pozzato, always following.” - Philippe Gilbert VeloNews
