2013 Strade Bianche

There will be live coverage on RAI, so check cyclingfans.com for the feed tomorrow.
Great race with some big names: Cancellara, Evans, Sagan, Pozzato, Valverde, and more. Cancellara has won twice, including last year.
I'm picking Sagan.

Just watched the replay from last year. That Cancellara attack was a thing of beauty. It reminded me of his Flanders attack in 2010. I love the calm look on his face as he powers away. His superior bike handling skills were also evident at Strade Bianche last year. I'd love to see him and Sagan in a duel.

Don't get me wrong I like Sagan and think he is a great rider, but when there is a group up ahead you need to do some work! Ruining your own race by just sitting of Fabian's wheel and refusing to help

Looks like the group is coming back together, thanks to Cancellara. I'm sure Sagan will be fresh and go

Not when your own teammate is up ahead. Cannondale played it perfectly. I thought they let the gap get too much time, but it all worked out for them.

Yes played very well. Forgot Moser was up ahead. Great race. They definitely let the gap get to big. Needed to catch them before they entered the town
