    In talks behind the scenes. The first one that is defiantly going to be included is Milan Sanremo.

    Others are being discussed before that in addition to those you mention Chris, the Roma Maxima is another.

    But we’ll see what comes about šŸ˜‰ šŸ˜‰

    Omloop and Kuurne-B-K are
    Omloop and Kuurne-B-K are next weekend, so hopefully we’ll find out soon (if they’re on Eurosport, I hope they’re included). If they’re not in, the next likely candidate for first race is probably Strade Bianche on the 8th.

    One of the problems we
    One of the problems we encountered last year was chopping and changing of the classics calendar. This was partly due to the terrible weather and partly because we tried to accommodate peoples wishes and get as many races in there as possible.

    This year we’ll pick a calendar of races that are quality races and ensure it doesn’t get too crowded. If big races get missed or if the race you want isn’t in there then sorry BUT that is the point to say “can we have this race next year?”.

    The calendar already evolves annually but changing mid-year isn’t something that we want to be doing anymore because it just pisses everyone off šŸ™‚

    At the moment, nothing has
    At the moment, nothing has been decided as to which races will be in.

    Dave is currently away and he will be running the spring classics. So I am sure, when he returns, he will decide which races and then we can let you know.

    Until then, we don’t need a great debate and lists of races that should and should not be in…I am not aiming that at you. Just in general, because this thread will go wild otherwise…

    I want X, but Y is good, Z is a waste of time….

    BUT, I want Z, Y is not worth it….etc
