Tomorrow Simon has the Milan San Remo over 298 k's, a long way, a long way in a car for that matter. The day is going to be wet from what he tells me, which won't be very comfortable. Not that comfort would be a word most Pro's would know of given the tough year so far in Europe, with weather. A field of about 200 top riders and over that hard terrain would be a very tough race to finish, even for riders at that level of class.
Simon lives only 20 minutes from the team Hotel and then 20 minutes to the start line, so at least he does not have to travel to far.
If you want to see the terrain, course and side view of landscape then Google Milan San Remo 2010, its really good viewing. You could actually print it out and follow the race if your looking for something to do.
Anyway speak more later and all the best to Simon.
Ride safely in the morning and don't put yourselves at risk. It's not worth it, no prizes.
Yes Mal it really starts to show his class to everyone.
Hey Mike,
Simon 32nd overnight at MSR, at the front of the second bunch to finish. That's a great result
