    I went for 8 different nationalities as i think the final selection is unlikely to include a clump of riders from one nation.Nordhaug and Boassen-Hagen are the exception as Nordhaug’s form is high from the Canadian races and I think EBH can technically be counted as British as I reckon the Sky boys will work with him.

    Boonen
    Degenkolb
    Boassen Hagen
    Valverde
    Duggan
    Gallopin
    Nordhaug
    Ulissi
    Clarke

    After a few minutes she had written out a team which on paper looked quite good. When asked about the team she said “those 2 are from Sky and the rest i just liked their names :O

    Her team was Gilbert, EBH, Valverde, JTL, Albasini, Henao, Bazayev, Ferrari and Ulissi. A grand total of 141 bloody points. Needless to say i was not a happy bunny X(

    How can Johan Vansummeren be
    How can Johan Vansummeren be part of the dream team with 5 points? He did not finish.
    Edit: I found the answer: “Team bonus – by country: 5 Points for each participating rider from the same country
    ”
    So every rider get’s those points they just have to start in the race.

    Dang, wanted Gilbert but was too expensive. 2, 10, 14. Terrible, after going 1-5 on the TT. Picked the wrong Aussie and went with Haussler.

    1, 11, 14, 19 and 20. Gerrans
    1, 11, 14, 19 and 20. Gerrans and Sagan a bit disappointing. Should have gone with Valverde and Freire as I first thought. I thought Kolobnev was going to get a high place at one point but he got nothing in the end. Not a bad race though and JTL did ok for his first time in such a race. Could do well in some of the classics next year.
