TdF Stage 2

An allout sprint is predicted. I've put Greipel in for tomorrow. I can't afford Cav. I would suspect many others are in the same position?

I'm miles off the pace after stupidly getting rid of Cancellara today, so I'm cutting my losses early and going for stage wins from stage 3 onwards, which means a big negative score tomorrow...  19

Was planning to drop Cancellara for Greipel, but am tempted to take the GC points and save a transfer. Hmm.

Got rid of Rogers for a cheap sprinter, but not expecting much from the next 2 days...

Cantwell? Surely he'll be riding for Haedo for the first few days?

Greipel FTW.

Did you see his train today?

Him or Sagan.

Or Goss, Kittel, Cavendish, Cantwell or Farrar.

Similar position, brought in Kittel and a breakaway guy, Tuesday's even more of a puzzle as I don't know whether to write it off and prepare for the sprint stages or try and get something out of it.

Its a tricky one today - I have Cancellara and Chavanel, and so don't really want to get rid of them until at least Weds, but it means I've only really got Sagan with any hope of big points today, whereas some people will have 3-4 star sprinters in. Oh well, hopefully there's some kind of freak result that keeps us in touch!
