Strade Bianche is quite a classic, I'd say even more so than MSR due to the terrain they ride over. Similarly most of the other classics in the Spring are known for the types of roads they are challenged with... which would be 'classic' in the harkening back to the ol'days when there were not many paved roads, when there were no clinchers, when men would wear their tubes around their shoulders, they had only two gears, there were no electronic gismos, they didn't care about watts or power-meters, they had to kill a goat just to make a pad in their shorts, take steroids and hop on trains... oh... wait.... yeah, anyway, it's a classic.
2013 SB prediction-o-matic: a "dark horse" winner.
But this goes without saying: Tyler Farrar will not win.
