Milano-Torino is returning to the summit of Superga on Wednesday, after a three-year absence. The move of dates from the autumn to the spring in 2022 saw a flatter route, perhaps intended to attract Milan-San Remo favourites in the week leading up to La Classicissima, but those top names were never quite tempted out. Now, the pre-San Remo date remains but we have the…
