ProTour Punditry Predictions

[SWSteve]

4 - basso (is he even racing?)

 

[HF2300]

Hofland, Javier or Daniel?

Danny, but I suspect you knew that... Or I was hedging my bets!

 

[The Couch]

I was thinking of going for Degenkolb today, so I wouldn't be part of the majority that goes for Bouhanni.
Since (so far) nobody is going for the boxer, I was concidering taking Bouhanni.

Then I probably had the same thought that all of you have, he's probably not going to get over those hills
(although he did well yesterday, but then again that was a much shorter climb)

So I'm going to reward Bling for his performance yesterday and put my confidence for a 2nd time in him.

Aye sure, you obviously guessed I had been drinking this evening and waited til I chose

 

[SWSteve]

5 - Dan Martin
6 Quintana

 

[The Couch]

Since none of you all seem to have a lot of faith in picking him this time, I feel fine going for him today
Stage 5 - John Degenkolb

 

[HF2300]

Degenkolb seemed confident for today, and I should have had faith in him yesterday, so what the heck - let's jinx him completely. Degenkolb.

Ok - 6 - Contador.
I kind of think Quintana won't show this early and will just sit on and cover whatever happens. I'm hoping Contador doesn't have full on GC ambitions and does go for his pre-race promise of some stage wins.
