as the european season enters spring, there are a number of one day races that make up what are called “the classics”.  there are seven races around europe and starts this weekend with milano-sanremo.  similar to how we ran the tour de france tipping comp over the past few years, we will be running a spring classics tipping comp which can be found here.

the seven races are –

• Milano-Sanremo
• Gent – Wevelgem
• Ronde van Vlaanderen / Tour des Flandres
• Paris – Roubaix
• Amstel Gold Race
• La Flèche Wallonne
• Liège – Bastogne – Liège

all you have to do to register is send an email with your team name and cough up $10 cash only.  the money goes towards the the prize pool so the more people that enter, the more money there is to win.  the rules are also on the tipping home page, but you basically choose one rider per race and cannot choose the same guy twice.  tips must be in by 6pm on the day of the race.  as these races are spread over a number of weeks, you have lots of time to get your tip right.

we had quite a few people enter the tour tipping last year and it made it more exiting to find out where your guy finished even if they didn’t win.  after this, we will be running a tipping comp for the three major tours as the year progresses.

so, have a look at the tipping pages and get your team name into me before 6pm saturday 20th.
