'Dale Posted October 23, 2012 Share Tejay.... yeah! Although BMC will have Evans as team nr 1 for one more year...Then Tejay will succeed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted October 23, 2012 Share Tejay.... yeah! Although BMC will have Evans as team nr 1 for one more year...Then Tejay will succeed him. I think Evans will start as team leader but won't finish as leader. He'll have to let Tejay go once the attacks start. I can't see Evans on the podium.

Squier Posted October 24, 2012 Share Speculation is 2 ind TT and 1 TTT. Personally I don't think Wiggo will stand a chance. 2 ITTs and 1 TTT will favor Sky. Somehow I doubt they will have 2 ITT's again. I'm hoping for a TTT start like at the Vuelta and then an ITT to finish things off before they hit the Champs. The normal "recipe"! This should be a big one with all the iconic climbs being included. Alpe d'Huez, Ventoux, Galibier, etc etc etc! I'm predicting a massive amount of climbing and a couple more summit finishes than what we are used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcza Posted October 24, 2012 Share 100th Tour de France: Four summit finishes - good for Froome. Seven flat stages - good for Cavendish... Escapee.. and Wez-O 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwissVan Posted October 24, 2012 Share Humph!!!! I'm tired of these grand tours that mean only a mountain goat with a good team behind him can win, why can't they come up with a 3 week tour with a bit of everything and that could be won by a rider from any of the team taking part?
