Ineos have a really interesting grand tour roster here. I'm hoping they race aggressively. Kwiato might just be glued to Bernal the whole race but the others should have some freedom.

Like it! I almost took both Bernal and Pellizzari.

Interesting from Cyril!

Is this good enough for the stage race championship win? Looks very good to me.

I have to also apologise. Some readers have been using the contact form, but those are buried in my admin area so I haven't been seeing them. I'll look to reply soon, even though it's over a year late in some cases. Sorry again!

This is gonna take a while folks, I've only just started writing notes on the all rounders. I'll try and finish the guide for today, but it's much more likely to be ready tomorrow 👍

They possibly should, but either way, they all just end up taking points from each other. Who knows, maybe Askey is still worth it. might just be a bit risky though.

Thank you! And well done on Del Toro!

I use First Cycling for all results needs, and I follow most races to get ideas on who's strong because results don't tell the whole story. r/peloton on Reddit is a good place for information gathering and discussion.

Let's hope for better fortunes in Catalunya as we continue to build to the Giro d'Italia!

In the meantime, who fancies a pre-Spring Classics chat?

I thought I had a winning formula in both, but Buitrago and Skjelmose put paid to any ambition I had in Paris-Nice; the less said about Tirreno the better!

I almost picked Sheffield, but not taking either Pedersen or Lipowitz cost me.
Likewise in Tirreno, Ganna and Tiberi were my major omissions.

Sadness and heartbreak for cycling fans everywhere

I'd buy it in a heartbeat if I could afford it!

Muchas gracias

Cheers John, makes sense!
