    excellent changes Sniffer. I brought in Yates, Clarke and Vuillermoz, already had Alaph and GVA so overall not bad. Clarke looked good but went too early, Roglic looking super strong though…

    They are announced during the race on the Tirreno live feed – http://www.tirrenoadriatico.it/it/live/ . The feed is still there in the evening.

    Although they did mix up Maestri & Bresciani on the firsr KoM.

    Same team with Gaviria & Viviani for tomorrow. Saving transfers for later.

    Glad I swapped out Thomas for Poels before the race started, looks like Thomas might be carrying a bug. That would explain why the TeamSky TTT was so disappointing.

    Brought in Lutsenko and Yates but Lutsenko shot his bolt too early.

    How the hell did I miss that…

    Moscon abandons the race.

    I saw something online before the race but can’t remember where.

    Must have been fairly obscure. I scan cyclingpub and such like for news but nothing was said. Doesn’t really matter because we’ll all have some bad luck…I just seem to have had a run if it. 

    I went without Bernal or Yates in Paris/Nice. I had what I thought was a great team that just got battered by the winds. Izagirre, Lopez and co are never bad picks and was on good form….mind you Yates also got battered by the winds as well…

    Bad luck with that.

    I was considering Sagan but wasn’t sure how his form would be, I then read he had been ill and so ruled him out completely.

    Even so he could do well in the 2 sprint stages. The finishes are very technical and being in the right position will count a lot.

    Same team as yesterday for me

    Same team as yesterday for me –

    ROGLIC
    DE PLUS
    DUMOULIN
    POELS
    YATES A.
    VUILLERMOZ
    BETTIOL
    VELASCO

    Saving my transfers for later. With hindsight Alaphilippe would have been a better pick than Dumoulin but I will probably bring him in for stage4.

    Hopefully DePlus doesn’t have to do too much work and then get dropped in the finale.
