One of the questions floating around the peloton following Tirreno-Adriatico is can Fernando Gaviria last 300km to contest Milan-San Remo? He is certainly fast enough, after winning Tirreno’s third stage, but people wonder if the 21 year old Colombian sensation can go the distance and still be as fast.

“I don’t know what my legs will be like after 300 kilometers,” he said to VeloNews this week regarding Milano-Sanremo. “A goal? I’ve never done it. Let’s just see how it goes.”

His DS at Etixx-QuickStep says the course does suit him but that it is the experience that counts.

“We were there for two days. We rode the course a few times,” Bramati told VeloNews. “It’s good for him, he’s young. Even if he’s bad on the day, it’ll be a good experience for his future. I don’t know if he can win it. No one knows. He’s good, he’s strong. Let’s just wait to see.”
