    Ok, I’m early but we teachers are still off in North Yorks, and this is a good distraction from planning and marking.

    Looking at draft team options for Sunday and there are currently 23 Dutch riders listed as potentially riding. Whilst a Dutch rider hasn’t won since (E) Dekker in 2001, statistically they’re the most successful nation in the race, with 17 victories. Then it’s the Belgians with 11, Italians 6 and others 3 or fewer.

    With Sagan as the exception, I’m confident in fielding 8 Dutch riders who could do well. I’m sure they won’t all remain in my team, but could this be a year for a ‘home’ victory? Mollema, Terpstra etc…

    Vanendert
    Quintana
    Weening
    Betancur
    Paterski

    Bring in Purito for the next one. Not sure how bothered he’ll be about this one, more of a warm-up I think! Mollema has got good form and something has to go right for Sky eventually. Henao in good form as well. Glad Vanendert is not in the break, he can do better than that. Reckon it’ll be Sagan Gilbert 1 2.

    Forgot about purist!

    Yes I like Iam too – had Lofkvist in my team until his injury. Elmiger got me good points in some races last season, could be a good outside bet!

    By the looks of the posted teams J-Rod,Cunego,Weening 1-2-3 would do very nice thanks….whilst any combination of Voeckler,Gerrans,Ulissi and Kwiatkowski would be a blow.
