Tour of Flanders
Folks, I'm in Dubai so its off to sleep for me. I have no time tomorrow so I've picked my team already and here it is...
Kristoff
Sagan
Cancellara
Thomas
Chavanel
Maaskant
Napolitano
Gatto
Offredo
I decided not to take any penalties so am left with Kristoff, Napolitano and Offredo where I wouldn't normally choose them.
I'm hoping for Thomas to jump away from a tiring Sagan and Cancellara and do a 4km pursuit to the Finish line!!!

Looks like the break of the day....10pts each if they can make it to halfway.
Jetse Bol (Blanco), Jacob Rathe (Garmin-Sharp), Tosh van der Sande (Lotto Belisol), Michael Morkov (Saxo-Tinkoff), Tim De Troyer (Accent Jobs-Wanty), Kevin Claeys (Crelon-Euphony) and
Laurens de Vreese (Topsport Vlaanderen)
I'll be surprised if anyone's got any of those
Just seen the pics of Boonen, looked really bad at first, obviously in a lot of pain, but at least he was on his feet when he got in the ambulance. Looks like he may be out of Roubaix, then.
Took HH out for Boonen....bad move obviously...
HH is the one I feared today and agonised over whether to put him in for GT?
BOONEN IS OUT.
Crashed, taken to hospital in ambulance according to reports.
Tom Boonen onthe foor???????
Boonen's out
or should I say...'opgave Tom Boonen'!!
Took abit of a risk
Sagan
Cancellara
Chavanel
Terpstra
Paolini
Bozic
Langeveld
Devolder
Le Bon (after a great showing at De Panne, who knows)
My choices were a little dodgy, as I couldn't find that perfect team of definite contenders, so here goes nothing...
Matti Breschel (SAX)
Fabian Cancellara (RSN)
Peter Sagan (LIQ)
Bernhard Eisel (SKY)
Filippo Pozzato (LAM)
Luca Paolini (KAT)
Stijn Devolder (RSN)
Michael Schar (BMC)
Maciej Bodnar (LIQ)
Gone similar to all the teams above
Sagan
Hushovd
Chavanel
Thomas
Langeveld
Cancellara
Offredo
Leukemans
Scheirlinckx
2 transfers unused
Ok, I've set up my team like this, I am still unsure about one, it might be a last minute change before I leave.
I've only made 3 changes, so leaves 9 for next weekend, but I can't see me being able to make the changes at all
Peter Sagan
Fabian Cancellara
Sebastian Langeveld
Tom Boonen
Luca Paolini
Sep Vanmarcke
Wesley Kreder
Yoann Offredo
Gediminas Bagdonas
I've gone for:
Peter Sagan (LIQ)
Filippo Pozzato (LAM)
Grega Bole (VCD)
Fabian Cancellara (RSN)
Sylvain Chavanel (OPQ)
Matti Breschel (SAX)
Stijn Devolder (RSN)
Maciej Bodnar (LIQ)
Ian Stannard (SKY)
Anticipating a group of Sagan, Chava and Cancellara. Contemplating changing Pozzato for Boonen or Breschel for Paolini but can't decide.
Undecided about Chavanel, no doubt about his form but after his win at 3 days de Panne, he said Flanders wasn't his favourite & didn't see himself as a contender.
Just down playing his chances or will he be riding for Boonen?
I dropped Sagan...
Interesting, my plan is to drop him for Roubaix
Ive only made 1 change so far, that was Chavanel for Cav. Gonna make some more in abit
I've got 6 of those and used 3 transfers to get there leaving me 9 for Paris-Roubaix.
I've had Gilbert and Phinney scratched out of my purists though
Sagan,Chavanel,Cancellara,Thomas,Langeveld,Gatto,Terpstra,Stannard,Devolder
Purist:Thomas,Cancellara,Langeveld,Offredo,VanMarcke,Maaskant (plus Boonen,Gilbert and Phinney out).
My Purists should be called 'The Lemmings'!!
VanMarcke down
and now Thomas
