Gen Posted June 22, 2017 Share Bit surprised about Stannard too. Bring on those winds on the flat open stages...makes for awesome viewing!!It's risky leaving him out..for those exact reason.. Sky must be careful that they haven't pulled a movistar on themselves. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Wakefield Posted June 22, 2017 Share Probably decided a long time ago that GT would have dibs on Giro and Poels Vuelta..but as mentioned by the Savage Poels coming back from injury hasn't raced in a while. Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk I don't think Poels would get dibs so early due to Chris always hunting the double. But then with GT out of Giro he would want Vuelta as make up for that if Chris doesn't hunt it. However I don't think Chris will this year.

J Wakefield Posted June 22, 2017 Share No Stuyven in your trek wish list ? Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk No, reason being he rode Giro and being young I don't see him then going to the Tour so soon and expecting to fill the roll he wold meant to. As a 1 day classics racer is good, as a vitally important Domestique roll at 77 - 78kg after the Giro then no when you see the other riders and all round capabilities.

Gen Posted June 22, 2017 Share Which of these guys can stick with Porte on the climbs?A better question.. can they out-tempo or stick with Sky's tempo up the climbs. Cause let's face it..that is the kind of riding we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Wakefield Posted June 22, 2017 Share Erm BMC Racing’s Tour de France team: Caruso, De Marchi, Kung, Moinard, Porte, Roche, Schar, Van Avermaet, Wyss. Could swop Schar for Oss, I almost don't understand why they have him over Oss. Yes, Schar is Swiss on a Swiss team and has a ton of experience but Oss supersedes that 10:1. Only reason is maybe they know Oss is off to his mate Sagan at Bora next year and they being sods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
