The first one day classic of the season is nearly here - the Down Under Classic.
Won from a break last year, i am hesitant to call it a sprinters race due to the performance of sprinters in the first two stage races of the season. It looks set to be an unpredictable race.
And then after that we have the first HC race of the season. There will hopefully be a strong field present for the Tour Down Under

I'm at the Tour, I've got Rast as my leader, with a good backup squad, including Bahaati for the sprints, Vandevelde and Hincapie for the breakaways and as domestiques, I've also got guys like 'Korn and Powers to help out. |

1st Lego race and the jersey is awesome 
But the tactics of Lego remembers me of Milram, try something stupid and it will end worse
Do the relay even your rider is infront
Ciolek 22th and Thorsen 12th

Mohs brings home the bacon! Its the first race/stage of the season for the Irn Bru team, and for the third season in a row, day one brings a victory. Here's to another mid-table finish now!  |

ah well. Nice to see Stewart Make the break and without that little bit of bad luck Haedo would have been in with a shot.

Gotta have a little bad luck every now and then. Haedo can't win 14 races last season without a little karma to humble him in this season

That first stage was pretty surprising, Renshaw winning in front of much better sprinters... |
