    I know Alex only won because everyone else was at the Vuelta, but he is still the national champion and surely that has to figure into it somewhere. Though this is probably all moot because Brad and Dave are still the best choices

    Yeh Gkam, Cav was never gonna go anywhere near my team, especially as you can only have 1 PC guy, much better/cheaper options, i will take the 5 point bonus with my british rider if he happens to win

    Here’s one for you all, will Froome be picked for Kenya in the TT after his exploits in the Vuelta or will Britain say “he’s ours now” 😕

    I think you might look at the course before you put Cav in your team

    Thats not a Cav style course and he wont be in the final group after going round that 17 times, in fact i’d be surprised if he even finishes

    Yeah, Dowsett is TT champ
    Yeah, Dowsett is TT champ because everyone else was at the TdF so that doesn’t really mean anything.

    GT would be a better bet except I expect him to be main lead out man for Cav for the road champs so they might save him for that instead.

    I think Alex Dowsett would be a much more likely candidate for the TT that G, what with him being the new national TT champion and all. Though personally, I think BRad and Dave would be the safer choices

    Wow Dave, nice work, that makes it alot more interesting. Anyone have any idea how many riders per country are entered into the TT? Will GB be able to enter WIggins, Thomas and Millar or just two of those?

    I dont know how many each country can enter and don’t really care about that

    But what i’m saying is, 3 riders all from different countries but from the same team, but i can’t pick them because of the limit, which is just annoying because we’re already limited because most will be all rounders and not climbers and sprinters, so i may not even bother with the TT properly because i’m only going to be able to pick a couple of riders who have a real chance, the rest will be DS and not do much, there will only be a couple of GC guys aswell

    Gkam – from what Dave’s said, it seems that the system of only having 2 people per team is written pretty deeply into the codebase, so changing it would be an absolutely enormous job.

    Can each country really only enter 2 people for the TT? #o
