Ideally you should have Cadels race before the TDU and the Nationals after the TDU. Gigante injured and off for 6 months. At the nationals it's a joke the Women's RR is only 109kms while the crit track with 6 turns in 1.2km is dangerous.
Ewan is not riding the Nationals which rules him out of the TDU. Apparently Groenwegen ( who has asked for the last 2 years ) will be at the TDU. Dunbar is the leader at Alula Tour.
I have found it a fascinating season with twists and turns in every race. It's even more fascinating that practice 1/2, can then flip in qualifying, and then from qualifying to the race.
Another strategy is to chase Houston. Offer pick 8 and Redman to the Power., and the ask for late picks to cover kako. We are satisfied because we use the pick before kako on a quality player, while Power are happy because they get a top 10 pick and a decent replacement for Houston
Bottas is really into cycling at the moment. he has qualified for his age group in the World Gravel championship in the next two weeks. It helps that his partner Tiffany cromwell is a pro cyclist.
It's a pity that Brown can't parlay her ITT form into the RR. She's been leader at the last four champioships and has failed miserably each time. There is no excuse for her not to get a decent result on saturday.
It was not a brilliant performance because she lead the Kasia group up Glandon and then lost 4 minutes on the descent. She descends like a WT pro and she finishes with Realini.
O'connor was super strong on that stage and I have my doubts anyone could have beaten him. Unless there is a an epic meltdown then a podium should be a certainty.
Jayco has no GC leader. Harper may ride a soft GC and they will chase stages. Ewan was pulled out of the Vuelta after he struggled in the final stage of Burgos. It was a strange decision because it is the first time, Ewan has struggled in the mountains this season. In saying that he was awful in...
My viewing of the VFL shows me that Hayes will need support in his role. I suspect if Ridley was playing then Laverde would be dropped and Hayes plays.
The deceased Drege had been signed by Jayco for 2025. A disgraceful effort by S.Yates who did not try in stage nine. It was evident when he was the last to enter the first gravel sector.
The safety car killed McLaren. Norris was 12 seconds in front and pulling away, then missed the chance to pit because he was past the pit entry. It was a race that go away for McLaren.
