Would've expected to see Daryl's name there at least.

Weird hey..

[2 X 2]

No An-Li Kachelhoffer?

[ScottCM]

The positive is that we are sending twice as many women as men , hopefully they play well as a team and set AMP up for a win.

Yoh.. I don't know if the course suits Ashley hey..

No An-Li Kachelhoffer?

That indeed is very odd

[Aurora]

No Impey surprises me after the year he has had.

[Popit]

Maybe Darryl didn't make himself available ??

[BouncingBrain]

Hope I don't sound too ignorant.

 

But are they only allowed 4 men?

 

Surely the choice selection couldn't have been easy

[andydude]

Seems like no climbs but high possibility of wind, echelons and splits?

[SwissVan]

Excuse my ignorance, who is Clint Hendriks?

 

[Sharkie 2]

That indeed is very odd

Anli did not make herself available for selection

[Sharkie 2]

No Willie Smit as well who is on excellent form

 

Clint Hendricks is his team mate at Roadcover

 

We can not judge the riders because they do not pick themselves, which also means we can not comment on their results

Yes. The limited squad sizes are entirely dependent upon a Nation's UCI ranking points.

 

Elite men for example:

Flanders gets 10

RSA gets 3

Wallonia gets -1
