RCS has made itself a little ridiculous, by this week announcing that teams in Milan - San Remo will consist of only 6 instead of 7 riders...not even two weeks before the race :facepalm: 

 

Of course this results in two more teams getting a wildcard.

If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated! Full story and how to help can be found here!

Milan - Sanremo is completely a mess this years...A lot of city have revoked the availability to host the race and RCS had to change the route plus time :wall:

Yeah, although that's not really RCS's fault as much as it is a matter of circumstances. Changing the entire format of the peloton so short before the race is just idiotic :facepalm:

UAE has taken three Colombians out of the race because they had been in contact with someone who tested positive. Meanwhile Movistar wanted the entire Israel team out after Roy Goldstein tested positive. Goldstein wasn't at the race and the only other Israel rider he has been in contact with was taken out of the race, so Movistar's reasoning would mean every cyclist - including their own - should be taken out of the race :lol:

Well, not that surprised with road cycling already getting a lot of such accusations.

 

The virus could spread through peloton like wildfire. :lol:

The Giro has announced the profile for the opening time trial, but apparently they've done it the wrong way :nopompom:

Actually that’s a good idea.  Lets’s have a descent time-trial for once!  Down an alpine ski-slope!  :clap:

 

Sadly, would be ruled out by all the safety complainers.  :happyjump:
