Is he even riding the tour 🙄

 

[Adam4868]

Looking at the route and the teams there has to be some good opportunities for breakaways this year ? Should make for some exiting stages hopefully.CCC riders are looking for new contracts.AG2R..cant see Bardet going for a podium spot or Mitchelton for that matter.

Bardet and Yates will probably be losing time as soon as they can (S4?) and be stage hunting and maybe KOM points?

Saw that last night and thought WTF...I wouldn't have thought the Tour was the best rehabilitation.

I wonder if Vaughters has taken to ignoring Rusty now, in the hope he’ll just go away to Israel start up nation

Gone with the Columbian trio...at least Carthy gets a ride.Hes a great rider to watch,local to me so I'm 100% biased ! Didn't realise he's not rode the tour before either.

My pocket money's on Caleb to beat an out of sorts Sagan.
That's put the kibosh on him!

 

[Adam4868]

Barring Sagan being his usual self...I'd like Bennet to take it.But he's a bit of a "unknown fitness" so to speak. Van Aert ? suppose it depends how much of a domestque he has to be.. I'm not picking Caleb if Rich has,he'll jinx him !
