Volta Ciclista a Catalunya - Stage 5
Changes made expecting a sprint finish. Meersman is the obvious choice but there are a couple of others who might feature.
Transfer wise I've made four bringing in three sprinters and 1 for the break, I've dropped Valverde, Richeze, Gesink and someone else so unremarkable I can't even remember who they were (it was Kreder).
Fingers crossed I can keep moving up the leaderboard! A top 10 in this comp is not out of the question just yet.

I used to go that way to work. It's nasty and congested. I doubt any changes will make the congestion worse.

Got another full house and 123. 28th in the comp after missing a stage. I think I might have to try that more often! I think for these short tours it might not be a bad strategy. Noticeable that mountain points have been significant for the first time, had Salerno in from stage 2! He's earnt a ton of points!
Likewise. Got a good feeling about Meersman for tomorrow. Arroyo good on descents, too, so wondering about him.
