Milan-San Remo race– Mark Cavendish won it’s everywhere the British papers, ESPN, everywhere.

Milan-Sanremo or Milan-San Remo, la classica di Primavera (“the Spring classic”), is an annual cycle race between Milan and Sanremo. It is the longest professional one-day race at 298km. The first was in 1907, when Lucien Petit-Breton won. Today it is one of the ‘Monuments‘ of European cycling, and part of the UCI ProTour until 2007.

Milan-Sanremo is often called the sprinters‘ classic while its sister Italian race the Giro di Lombardia held in autumn is the climbers‘ classic.
