Okay here is my team too:
Contador - 20 - I don't think he will win but still good value at this price.
Nibali - 18 - Perhaps undervalued because of his (apparently) poor recent form.
Pinot - 16 - Potential podium, particularly if one of the favourites crash
Bardet - 12 - Solid value and possibly a bit under the radar.
Martin - 10 - Capable of a top ten or if not at least a stage win.
Coquard - 8 - I didn't want to spend much on a sprinter and Coquard can do a solid job.
S. Yates - 8 - Should have a free reign and can fight for GC. A bit of an unknown.
Durbridge - 4 - I just want him there in case Orica win the TTT so that I can pick up some solid points. May also get in a break or two.
Kudus - 4 - A real wildcard. I expect to see him in a number of breaks. Could maybe even go for KOM for a little while?
Last minute change: I've swapped Kudus for Barta. I think Kudus has the potential to score more highly but I'm trusting Barta to be more reliable.

Van Garderen
Valverde
Pinot
Bardet
Kristoff
Cancellara
Vanmarcke
T.Martin
Degenkolb
Not going for one of the outright favourites but I'm fairly certain all of these riders can score points. Swapped Boom out for Cancellara last minute.

Nibali - 18
Valv - 12
Pinot - 16
Purito - 14
Kristoff - 14
Barta - 4
Martin - 8
Elmiger - 4
Degenkolb - 10
Couldn't fit in Wilco, unfortunately. Kinda sucky with my current team name(KeldermanMustWin)
Kinda gambling on one of the (other) favourites disappointing at some point here.
Wasn't exactly a great day for me, with Barta being absolutely rubbish and while gambling that Martin takes yellow. Oh well he could still do that tomorrow

My team:
Froome
Kwiatkowski
Rolland
Martin
Cavendish
Malori
A.Yates
Gallopin
Matthews
Matthews and Cavendish for the sprints should be a strong duo, and hopefully the likes of Rolland and Martin can do well by attacking as they have done in the past. Froome should be a strong scorer providing he doesn't crash
Not expecting much success though. Not the best of starts today, Malori the only top 10 and he's unlikely to pick up any more results from now on. |

TJ
Talansky
Pinot
Rolland
Matthews
Gauthier
Stybar
Bakelandts
Qunitana
so far that's scored me 4 points but I really didn't expect much from the opening stage.
Hopefully Gauthier can be as attacking as always, possibly having a run for the KOM jersey at some point, and then I've got 4 guys who could potentially top 10 as well as Quintana who should be on the podium at the very least and could end up winning.
I think Matthews represented the best value from the sprinters, and if he goes for it should be right up there in the fight for the green jersey due to his ability on the hills and harder sprint stages.
I'm hoping Stybar can put in a monster performance on the cobbled stage and possibly get a chance to make a late attack on another stage if he's feeling up for it.
Bakelandts is a wildcard option for me hoping he gets abit of freedom to try his own thing at some point.
Probably should have gone for Nibali + someone instead of Quintana and Bakelandts but couldn't figure out who to pick as that someone so left it in the end.

ummm, Jesleyh, how?
Really feel like I have a pretty good team this time and Jesleyh seems to agree with 6 riders.
Also very happy to have spotted Navardauskas was pretty cheap if he takes parts in sprints, which he did for a few last year.

Quite dreadful at the moment. What started with Barta in the break, finished with nobody taking serious stage points.
Martin not gaining yellow didn't help either(Thanks, Cav!).
Still under 300 points atm. Admitted, there's still lots of teams lower, but still dreadful considering I basically chose 2 TTists.
So err, tomorrow should be better, having Valv, Purito and Nibbles.

Any one bothered to count how many participants we have on PCMdaily?
Because it seems quite a lot, but they got rid of the numbers
