How The Race Was Won – Milan-Sanremo 2014

Posted on 24 March 20144 July 2021 by cosmo

New climb, old climb, no climb—it’s a long-ass race and the weather was bad. Can you even really call it a bunch sprint if the “bunch” is less than 30 riders?

    Way to break down that final sprint. HTRWW puts nearly all other summaries to shame that either fail to show or show and fail to explain what retrospectively became the key moments of the bike race. Granted it’s hard to notice stuff during the live commentary, but after that they really miss an opportunity to “edumacate” me and further my appreciation of what is already an impressive event.

    I know you have a “real job” thus I will refrain from demanding you make a video for every single world tour race…

    Outstanding analysis. Thanks for providing what the race announcers don’t have (or take) the the time to share, Cosmo.
