Nice list USAZorro

Milan-San Remo is a beautiful race.

I'm a huge fan of De Ronde / Flanders. Watching Boonen / Cancellara / Sagan / et al torch the Koppenberg and the Kappelmuur are magical moments. I like it almost more than Roubaix though watching Adam Blythe almost lose his mud on the moto in the Trouee d' Arenberg a few years ago was up there. Brad on a bike debuted shortly thereafter.

Mohoric with his dropper seat post and PsyOps against the peloton was super worthy. A bold plan recklessly executed. Victory for the audacious.

I made it to Richmond for the men's elite road race. Did you? I can't remember if that was a re-Pete or three-Pete but it was great.

The Tour of Flanders often gets compelling in the latter stages of the race, as does Milan-San Remo.

One last recent one. 2022 Milan - San Remo. Mahoric burned 25 of his 9 lives winning the race on the downhill.
