I am! I’ve watched all the big races this year since Milan-San Remo and this looks to be a real challenge with the bad weather expected.

I like this blog’s previews for races like this:

I found this page for anyone trying to figure out how to watch the race live:

Who do you want to see win this year?

I’d love to see a surprise but I’m expecting one of the big names.

    I love watching pro cycling, but I honestly never root for anybody. There have been a few riders I rooted against, but they’re all retired now, thankfully. I just enjoy the whole process and the strategy of it all.

    That said, I’m totally stoked to watch yet another LBL.

      I don’t generally root for anybody in any sport. Yeah, there are people I root against - often for unexplainable reasons. I dislike Remco for some reason. No idea why. Kid seems OK.

      Anyways, yeah I’ll be parked in front of the tv all day. Rest day tomorrow so it’s perfect :-)

        He’s a sore loser. Maybe he’s arrogant because of all the hype. I dunno, he gives Ronaldo vibes but I don’t see evidence that he’s actually a bad guy. Sometimes winning too much just makes you root against them. I’m a fan since he continued to animate the vuelta, last year, in a way only he could after falling out of GC.
