    Ooops/ It seems like cyclingquotes.com [size=30]does not[/size], I repeat, [b]does not![/b] have a full startlist up at http://www.cyclingquotes.com/news/the_pressures_off_gilbert_ahead_of_fleche_and_liege/ and I cannot read through an article and not go hopelessly overboard and claim things that aren’t true, much to my dismay, as I have been so emphatically been pointed out to below. Look at the comments section to see for yourself how a grown man is humiliated by a huge dose of reality. #o 🙁 *sigh* My bad.

    Betancur didn’t make the start, then ur stake should be returned no issue other than a possible 10 point loss if the break makes half way :/

    That said, there are a stack of worthwhile picks at 3.0 for L-B-L – Meintjes, Arredondo etc. which makes the possibility of a full house of scoring riders even higher. It seems unlikely that they will win, but when picking a team of 8, it’s about more than just picking the winner.

    Thank you for your response Boko.
    Yes there is a few decent 3.0 I feel too, I am sure most will have arredondo, I am staying away from meintjes, tho I got huge wraps on him.
    I also read that previously Matej Mohoric had done a 8hr ride in training but only covered abt 240km, The AG was a new record for him at 251km and now set to go longer for first time again 🙂
    I don’t think I am gunna back up any Trentino riders, just seems to harsh in this strong field, especially with Valverde and Gilbert firing on all cyclinders.
    What I did find interesting is that there is a 5,000 euro prize for sprint at 100km to go mark, so how ever wants that has to be in break….HMMMM
    Biggest drama I am having is trying to fit GERRANS in, I need some Orica AUSSIE flavour in team:) Gerro seems to be really fired up for this.
    P.S.
    I would also like to welcome Micheal Rogers back to the peleton….Damn Chinese beef…lol
