    So who we all thinking will be first home today?

    I’m hoping for something better than my last two days, but as with anything in this race, its so hard to pick on because everything changes with the wind direction and the weather, they are even talking about snow redirecting the route this week

    I kept in Haussler, and swapped Kittel for TVG. Decided that the boy Vanmarcke is clearly on song so swapped him in for Larsson.

    I’ve gone for a Boonen, Hushovd, Haussler, De Gendt combo hoping for a good result before I transfer some of them out for tomorrow.

    Fingers crossed it’ll work out although given my luck yesterday Grega Bole and Gustav Larsson will feature given I’ve just ditched them 🙁

    After 24th best score yesterday, I’m less certain as to who will challenge today.

    Haussler’s probs after a stage win, but didn’t he crash?
    Degenkolb I reckon.

    Forgetting about today and transferring people in for the hillier stages and one or two left in for the final tt.

    Brought in Leipheimer – no brainer really and Jean Francois Peraud – damn good climber and not a bad tt rider.

    Not expecting a lot of points today but still got De Gendt in so he might go for it 😕

    Boonen?

    After a poor 42 points yesterday & dropping all round, have swapped out Kittel & Viviani for (in) Leipheimer & van Garderen.

    Wanted Boonen but couldn’t afford!

    A day for the French me thinks…Although Boonen cannot be dismissed on this terrain…..Rabobank must surely attack today,or have they just come for a training spin…. 😕

    Went conservative with my team, ie transferred in Wiggins.

    Why I expect attacks by Rojas and Chavanel to soften up Sky for tomorrow night and depending how things go a late attack by Valverde (he needs to make up 30 seconds).

    So going for the win with Boonen and Degenkolb, and top 20 finish and GC points (+ white jersey) with Wiggins & TJVG.

    If I was a gambling man I would risk it on the likes of Dumolin, Haussler, Chavanel and Valverde (maybe tomorrow).

    Too close to call. Tempted to say Haussler could have his day, but I really don’t know. Could be a repeat performance from Boonen. I sense Chavanel isn’t far off testing his legs, particularly with being so well placed in the GC with all the climbs to come.
