Can I have Locatelli Modolo Pirazzi
All from one team Bardiani Valvole. Unlikely to win, just want to support the little team.

Santambrogio, Salerno, Gavazzi for me - on the off-chance Nibali crashes out in week one!

Yeah, you can be pretty sure that Nibali and Santambrogio will be very popular. Aru and Locatelli too look like common picks.
