Where he'll get 'terminated' on every stage that suits him!! Sagan won 4 stages last season I think?

He won 5 stages and also won the sprint for 2nd after Sylvain Georges solo win. Sagan won the first 4 stages with Haussler 2nd in all 4.

Would like to see Meersman challenge Sagan. He looked good in Romandie.

Ulissi has been quoted as saying that he is riding neither the giro nor the tour and will concentrate on the vuelta.

Nope, Levi's still there (or was earlier) - go and have a look at 'riders only riding this stage', sorted by team...

Dr H, that's a good point and is much what I'm doing, but fully expect anywhere up to half of my chosen team to turn out not to be riding. Occupational (recreational?) hazard, I s'pose.  1

It's a difficult thing to balance. It's often not until the week before a race that rosters start to become more final but for a big race people like more time to plan.

Opening it up very early with incomplete rosters might not be helpful to you but others may be happy picking provisional teams now and updating them over the next week or so.

No team picked now is final, you have unlimited transfers until the first stage starts so you can make as many changes as you like. Make use of it and play around with your team to see who you can fit in  4

I'm gently amused that Levi now somewhat appears to be racing as an independent, in the finest traditions of the early 1900s Tour de France. Silliness aside, I do wonder if it's sensible to have team picking open when so many rosters have not been released yet. It seems to have the entire OPQ payroll on there - while RadioSnack have thus far listed only 4 riders...

You can select any rider by selecting show all riders, the ones showing are us trying to narrow it down to just those that are racing, so all riders are there and available
