Nice calendar, not much to argue about this time. No parallel program to Amstel and LBL is sensible, and Alps is important enough to clash with FW. Time-wise, I am not sure we want 4 editions for the cat 2 and 3 tours with a strong parallel 1-day-race program.

Yeah, exactly my thought too. I think positive feedback is helping a lot too!

Do we really need that much 15h for classics in the afternoon?

The argument for MSR 15h (and other later times) was switch from the previous year.

Now we'll have Flanders, Liège at 15h too, same as they were in 25. Roubaix at 14, same as in 25. Amstel, less important of course, 15h, same as 25. So that makes 3 of 4 monuments at 15, 4 of 6 weekend classics from Sanremo to Liège at 15. And 5 of 6 races at the same time as 25, just Sanremo was switched. More switching in other times, but didn't analyze exactly. In the afternoon Dwars, Schelde and Flèche the same as last year too. Brabant changed. So in the afternoon all the same times as last year except Sanremo and Brabant. Can be done, just feels a bit weird when the argument for Sanremo 15 was that it was 14 last year, so change it a bit.

Hope to have gotten everything right, back and forth clicking sometimes confuses me...

Got a carrot from FL. But they threaten to take it away now.

If we look at MSR I don't think 5 editions are needed for monuments

I would also be in favor of more 14h classics. Especially if the race is very long
