Tour de Romandie - Prologue
My team for this one is:
Froome
Martin
Porte
Gesink
Frank
Majka
Dennis
Wyss (M)
Van Rensburg
I think the climbers will do better than they usually do in a prologue but that the TTers may still come out on top. My money is on Martin for the win, Froome, Gesink, Porte, Frank and the likes of Peraud and Spilak to get close with a smattering of TT specialists (Tuft, Bono, Malori) there or there abouts. Don't see sprinters competing in this one.

TBF I think that's before she saw the light and got on her bike. Not so great if her views have been informed by Mr. Briggs though.

That's a great price. Just bear in mind Import duty and handling charges will be applied pre delivery.

This is getting worse the longer it goes on...make it stop haha
Ive had plenty of dud picks. i considered Moser too
Sitting watching it on a feed through my laptop and the speaker has just died on me
Mind you its quite surreal watching it without any sound or the likes of Harmon bleating on in the background.
Looks like Gruzdev was a duff pick!
Shame - same with Grivko, he's well down. Could be that my good run will come to an end this week if today is anything to go by!
Yeah, I thought it'd be a tough climb (it's rated cat 3) and that GC time triallers would likely take it but I thought pure TTers would do better.
Nice to see Kelderman doing well, hope he does well at the Giro too although he'll be working in support of Gesink.
Live tv now on sporza s
Yeah, think I got this wrong as well, it looks like the main GC guys will be taking it today - I thought the climb would be less selective than it seems to be.
Most of the top guys are in the last 30 to go, so will be loads more changes yet. Looking at my two Astana guys to light it up and get me to a half-decent result!
3rd standard, 4th purist for two riders I expected to be up there (and will sit 2nd and 3rd in young riders at the moment. Plenty to come, hopefully
Blanco 4 in top 10 so far! opps i didn't pick any Blanco riders
Gah, dropped Rujano at 10 to 12 today in order to pick up Morabito.
For what it's worth though, Rujano will go into the Giro as Vaconsoleil leader so he was always going to have to try and ride into some form this week.
Still, plenty of big names still to come.
Ok I may have got this wrong, Pinot goes fastest! and where did this come from Rujano goes 8th!!
Froome was last man on the list published earlier on the official site, so if he has dropped out it was very very late
As for my standard team, 1 and 6 at the moment, a long way to go though
Steephill says the last man is 17:08. Moreno is last on list at 17:07. So hope it's just a typo and he's been missed
It was a typo. Froome is still in
Is he last man setting off? If he's dropped out I will not be happy!
I've had a look at the biciclisimo start time list and cannot find the name of C. Froome. Maybe it's my eyes
In case you want to follow the action:
Current top 10:
1 86 KELDERMAN W.* BLA 13:33.100
2 122 BOARO M. TST 11
3 101 BRAJKOVIC J. AST 12
4 81 GESINK R. BLA 17
5 53 DENNIS R.* GRS 32
6 15 IGNATENKO P. KAT 35
7 107 SILIN E. AST 47
8 172 BILLE G. LTB ST
9 95 DUPONT H. ALM ST
10 22 BAKELANTS J. RLT 55
I think Ive lost the plot on this one
