    Swapped out Galimzyanov for Veltis, don’t expect Denis to be in the lead bunch today

    Gambled by swapping out Farrar for Fuglsang, Tyler might finish in the lead group or not.

    Replaced Selig with Lebas. Thomas finished in 11th on stage 2 in good company and is 11th overall. My rank outsider for today and maybe tomorrow.

    Sticking with Bouhann, Cooke and Sutton (all with a good change to finish in the front group today) and Guardini (not in the front group today, but saving a transfer and points for one of the big gun guns tomorrow for Grepiel and 4 transfers for Sunday)

    Got a similar strategy with Sagan, Greipel, Fulgsang and Jeannesson (least sure about this choice but always a fan of FDJ) for today. Haven’t decided for tomorrow. End of this stage is easier than 2 I think, but we’ll see.

    I may have seriously messed
    I may have seriously messed up BIG style today, i thought the sprinters would sit back and take it easy up the larger of the 3 climbs today, seems i was wrong, bunch sprint coming up and i got rid of ALL my sprinters in readyness for tomorrow where they will be of no use.

    The reason i switched 4, so that i can have 4 transfers after tomorrows stage to get them back in, might work, might not, as long as i dont drop to far off

    My aim for this season is to win my region, anything else is a bonus 😀

    I was chatting about this
    I was chatting about this stage with someone yesterday and it struck me that with Milan-San Remo only four weeks ago, this is exactly the kind of stage that would give Cav a good workout for that. I kept him in, but more because once again I forgot to do transfers than anything else :”(

    It’s Bernie Eisel’s birthday today. Cav said on twitter that, as a birthday gift to bernie, he will not get dropped from the bunch and make bernie wait for him 🙂

    well my team is sort of half
    well my team is sort of half and half, due to a messed up original selection

    Oss
    Rod
    Sagan
    Kittel

    Nava
    Krupois
    Selig
    Gallopin
    Bouhinni

    so a nice Sagan, Oss, Gallopin 1,2,3 would be nice and somehow kittel to be in there
