While it's Spring Classics time in Europe, over in the USA, the Stage Race season is well and truly underway. This week it's the 30th edition of the Redlands Bicycle Classic in California, and like all the big USA races, we can follow along as it happens.
This is a 6-stage race for women and men, and there's a ton of information on the race website, with a great race twitter that gives live updates from each of the stages, and updates on facebook.
Saturday and Sunday's stages will be streamed live thanks to VeloNews - here's their details of how to watch it. And in the meantime, they'll have daily video updates on their youtube - here's the highlights from yesterday's Stage 1:
