Since Riis is danish I think he should show support to the country's two great riders who exceeled at le Tour; since he'll have to wear it till end of Tour (imagine July Daily-Posters up in arms lol). I couldn't quite decide between dumb-looking Bjarne Riis and sexy Rasmussen though. So, what to pick?

Nonono, it was Cannondale's lack of teams support.
Oh wait.

Spoiler Sagan vs. anybody you choose at Roubaix, but you would have to accept him on avatar at least until the Tour. 
Nice attack by Landa and Jesleyhmann the second, the favourites somewhat close together, bar Martin and Vullermoz i have expected to be better so close to Ardennes. Same with Kreuziger, who should be in good form already for his target races that come soon.
Aru, as someone said, seems to care only about GTs.

Avin, I don't think its a matter of caring only about GT's, but more that Aru simply is a prime example of a stage racer. I'd like to think that he and Landa are pure stage racers and for the most part only did well in GT's, but when Landa won yesterday without much preparation truth to be told, that theory debunked, but I think its true about Aru. Thats my impression.
On the other hand, I have always seen Kelderman has a pretty mediocre rider. I was super surprised by his attack today, but I don't think he is capable of eclipsing Gesink/Mollema in Le Tour which is what really matters for the Dutch. |

I wouldn't have either predicted Landa to be in such a good form already, it's time for a another basque GC win anyway in Pais Vasco.

Is it because you are jealous of his aristocratic pallness coupled with the cycling tan on his arms worshipping skin-cancer?

Well as you see guys, losing a bet against me gets you compliments and complains of disgust alike. Miguel & Riis both happy customers of losing an avatar bet against Shonak, building a brand one step at a time.

so in a race I don't like you bet a riding I don't like against me, pffft. can't see how that can go wrong
LMAO
you know what, I'm going for broke and give Stybar as my rider against Sagan.
edit: I already regret choosing styby
