    So Stage 1 was exciting, is everyone sticking to their pre race plan for stage 2 transfers?
    Im not too sure about mine now, people talking about reduced sprints, oh the joys!

    Tomorrow is a tougher end to the stage than today (so didn’t go Gerrans or Albasini as I think they will work for Impey today), so think it could come back together to a degree. Ive got a feeling Greipel may win todays stage

    Cav and Griepel out for me. Hope i can get a breakaway guy today :?

    After alot of hovering over the confirm button i’ve got rid of Bouhanni too and taken a 10 point penalty.

    Taken a punt on a rider who should be all over this stage in his multi-coloured jersey….. :B

    I like the sound of Phil Gil too but quietly confident for Gerro….especially after all the talk of a ‘Poggio-like’descent just before the finale.

    It’s also the sort of stage that I would normally go for Cunego but he’s let me down too many times this season and I preferred Terpstra for his TTT chances down the line.

    I spent ages deciding between Gerrans and Albasini – actually tossed a coin in the end and it come down Swiss…

    Already had Navardauskas(I hope you mean him and not Navarro 😉 )

    Sagan and Terpstra in for Cavendish and Kristoff

    Sagan
    Terpstra
    Gerrans
    S.DuMoulin
    Gasparotto
    Kittel
    Navardauskas
    Hoogerland
    Fischer

    Worried about the VanPoppel’s today(sounds like the after effects of a dodgy curry) and was tempted by Millar with the TTT in mind but sticking to the plan.

    Gerro for the win please B-)

    turned out it wasn’t broke, just contusions and he lost a lot of skin. big gash in his arm too. and concussion :(

    Not sure about him starting after concussion, not good. Most sports would give an automatic period of no competition. Hope he stays safe today.

    Sagan’s injuries from what I read last night are superficial if fairly extensive, but I’ve rued not bringing him in before when I thought he was too injured to win. The next two stages suit him so I’m bringing him in along with Degenkolb for Cav and Bouhanni. Left in Kittel and may leave him there for a while for the table points. Was originally going to have Gallopin as he was a bit cheaper but he came in 194th so I haven’t gone for him although he says he is ok as well.
