No Estonians this time?

Absolutely not!
I have banned Estonians, French and (now thanks to Couch) Belgians.
In fact:
4 Czechs
3 Spaniards
1 Colombian
1 Italian
That's if I don't have another change of heart.
Always happy to help
EDIT: For the people who haven't banned the Belgians (yet)... I can always recommend the master strategist Francis De Greef... who will continue his leadership role from the Giro over into the Vuelta (can't wait to see that)

I can't get the sound to work on that clip, for some reason - probably a blessing in disguise. Is it as bad as Jonathan King's Una Paloma Blanca?
Hell no... Una Paloma Blanca is sung by someone who can actually sing
... but genre-wise you're definitely close-by(if you have music in mind where people will/can dance on, by forming a line holding the shoulders of the person in front of them - which we call "polonaise"- then you're there)
...Hey, we're pretty good at cycling, but mentally challenged when it comes to popular music

On the other hand, Jacques Brel.
Well, since Devolder didn't get selected... at least someone is showing the jerseyI'm in. I even picked the Belgium national jersey as my team jersey
By the way... I am actually surprised about the amount of teams in the league...I was hoping for a top 10 placing (by default
)

I don't think he or Valverde can be ruled out but Nibbles didn't look in great form in Poland and Valverde hasn't got access to his magic beans any more... I'm not sure. I'm just guessing, really.

Nibali is targeting the World Championship - it is a big priority for him given the hilly Italian course so I doubt he will be looking to go for a high GC standing.

What I read earlier was he'll see where he is in the third week before deciding whether it not to really go for it.
Tbh, I don't think it's in his nature to not go for it...
