so if this so called meeting of the british worlds team is happening could a team of millar, wiggins, stannard, cummings, thomas, swift, bellis and then cav be unbeatable? i know a lot of people have this issue with the pros but i'd love to see cav winning stages in the tour in the national jersey

    You've got your facts all messed up.

    They are meeting to assess which British rider(s) have a shot of winning the World Championships. Mostly likely to be Cav.

    They will never race as part of a national team in the Tour. The World's and the Olympics are basically the only big races where riders represent their country.

    my point was its the worlds team not the sky team, maybe not made clear. you need practice runs for the worlds and while cav wont win this year you need all the practice you can get

    The British pros will be meeting up with Rod Ellingworth for GB team meetings in the two days prior to the road race, but they will not be racing the National Championships as a team.
