Description | |||||
Every
cycling fan knows Milano-San Remo, the first real major classic race of
the cycling season. The start is since 1907 traditionally at the
beginning of spring, and is therefore nicknamed La Primavera. The riders leave from Milan in a southerly direction on the flat, straight roads of the Po Plain. Just before the peloton reaches the Mediterranean Sea, the highest point of the course is crossed at the Passo del Turchino. The moderate climb of only 532 meters is just before the middle of the race and is taken by all professional cyclists in the biggest chainring. During the second half of the race, the riders follow the coastal road of the Italian Flower Riviera at high speed. Also here the course is almost flat, except for the Cipressa and Poggio which can determine the race for some brave attackers in the final. But it is more than once that these well-known climbs are not hard enough, and that the race ends after almost 300 kilometers within 7 hours in a sprinter's ball on the Via Roma in San Remo. There is also an alternate way to cycle from Milan to San Remo. A bit more pleasant, a bit longer, but above all much more challenging. We choose to leave the Italian metropolis in a north-westerly direction, where the foothills of the Alps quickly rise. There will not be one single meter flat. |
