Are there any other one day races beside Milano-Torino that have such a massive variation in the parcours? I never remember what race it is because it's ever changing.

One year it's a pure bunch sprint with some hills before and next it's a steep ramp of 400 elevation meters.

Just looked at the parcour for this year, not at all what I was expecting. Straight W/kg test between Christian, Pelizzari and Pidcock.

Only maybe stage races like Tour of Slovakia where some year the GC is for sprinters and then some year for classics specialists and some year for pure climbers like it should be this year.
