The peloton in the 2014 Strade Bianche
After the cobbles of Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, Strade Bianche presents tricky road surfaces of a very different nature, with rolling dirt roads through beautiful Tuscan countryside.
The spectacular race will be live on Eurosport 2 on Saturday afternoon, although with coverage starting at 13.00 and the finish scheduled for around 14.30 GMT, you'll need to make sure you're home from your weekend ride in plenty of time.
