    had an indifferent bunch of
    had an indifferent bunch of sprint stages to date, so hoping for better now that we hit some hills.

    gone for:

    costa
    kelderman
    gva
    thomas
    slagter
    gallopin
    sepulveda
    degenkolb
    seb chava.

    suspect sylv chava is going to show well, but couldnt make it fit! and nibali, and betancur, and stybar… cant fit them all!

    I got rid of Degenkolb
    I got rid of Degenkolb because of the next few stages being mountainous and the stupid gradient in today’s stage.

    Costa
    Nibali
    Betancur
    Thomas
    Kelderman
    Delaplace
    Chernetski
    Jungels

    Didn’t really know what to do, and kept Degenkolb as although expensive, should score at least 5 points the next two days, which is better than a kick in the teeth when anything could happen!

    Degenkolb
    Rui Costa
    Bakelants
    Chavanel
    Slagter
    Thomas
    Chernetski
    Zingle
    Hinault

    Whenever I bring in the
    Whenever I bring in the breakaway guy from stage one, he never goes again. Whenever I don’t, he’s in every break of the tour. Bloody Laborie.

    No idea about today, I’m expecting Nibali/Betancur et al to put the hammer down on the climb, but there’s no guarantee they’ll stay away. If they don’t, my purists might do OK, if they do, I have them in standard. So guaranteed to be disappointed one way or the other!

    Betancur
    Nibali
    Degenkolb
    Thomas
    J Izagirre
    Gallopin
    Laborie
    Hinault
    Rovny

    When I quickly looked at the stage profile before making my transfers the climbs didn’t look too hard so left in most of my sprinters. I failed to notice that section at 25% though! At only 14km from the finish that is going to end most sprinters chances, although Degenkolb seems to be in good form and can climb quite well.

    I think stage 5 is
    I think stage 5 is potentially a bit sprinty, plus Degenkolb will still be in Green at the end of the day so didn’t take a pen. Already had Thomas and brought 4 in

    Betancur
    Stybar
    Gallopin
    Thomas
    Chavanel
    Chernetski
    Fonseca
    Sepulveda
    Degenkolb
