    Ha! I had 7 definite riders and 36.9 points left. Based on Gkam’s last two posts, my choice of Valverde and Ulissi, instead of the other option I gave myself – of Sanchez and Habeaux – is beginning to look a little dodgy…

    I know the start list aint
    I know the start list aint up, but i know that at least 7/9 of my team will be there.

    Just saw this on Letour while looking for any breaks today

    A former double winner of Liege-Bastogne-Liege in 2006 and again in 2008, Alejandro Valverde (Movistar) would usually be one of the big favourites. But his lowkey performances in Amstel and Fleche have made him an outsider at best.
    “The thing is I was ill before the Ardennes Classics, I had ‘flu,” Valverde told letour.fr. “I’m not in the form I’d like to be. But there are other races and other years.”
    “I’ll try to do my best, but Liege is a race where there are no hiding places. My favourite for today? Samuel Sanchez (Euskaltel-Euskadi). He might have missed out on Fleche, but he’ll be up there for sure.”

    Still feel like I’m the only one to go with Mollema – anyone else?

    Gilbert, Mollema, Gasparotto and Valverde (still not sure why…)
    N Sorensen, Ulissi, Nordhaug, Antomarchi, Pauriol

    Looking forward to seeing who’s in the break at halfway…

    It would seem then that we are all agreed……There are probably 100 riders that can realistically win this bloody race……Such a conundrum……Well I have put a rider in from each of the top in form teams,so Im confident of 5 points……
    I just hope that Phil Gil has woke up with a really snotty nose and a sore head…… :/ 😉 😐
