Tour de San Luis
So the season pretty much kicks off next week
The Tour de San Luis starts Monday, and has a pretty strong field and a rather decent route (basically 3 flat stages, 3 summit finishes and a TT in the middle of the race)

Here are mine

1. Contador
2. Van Garderen
3. Nibali

Nope, it's to keep your straps down and quieter. Plus most sunglasses are polycarbonate and aren't going to shatter like glass anyway

Id say no as we are getting to grips with everything and getting the TDU going.
Also half the teams/riders in the race are not your regular riders and teams
That is why i put a thread for a lighthearted prediction
Dave, do you remember having offered the possibility of letting an admin run a race, populate the start list etc.?
We are running races, Between Ter, Dr Heaton, Dave and Myself, we have the season covered
That's pretty cool! Is there any way we could get a Tour de San Luis race going?
