Hi guys, hoping someone with some time to spare can quickly answer the following, as the season gets under way (for me).

What are the following doing this year/which races, please?

Contador
Hushovd
Cancellara
Sagan - I already found out he's in the tour of California - is he in the TdF?
Voeckler
Schleck, both
Gilbert
Sanchez, L-Leon
Navarro

many thanks in advance, I'm sure someone will rattle off a list of what's what.

    Contador - Tour, maybe Vuelta and Worlds.
    Hushovd - Tour (but probs won't be any good)
    Cancellara - Season goals achieved, won't contest Worlds TT
    Sagan - Tour/Green Jersey
    Voeckler - coming back from collarbone, Tour as usual
    Andy Schleck - Tour supposedly, I predict abandonment after 10 minutes of stage 1
    Frank Schleck - Vuelta post-ban if he ca be more a*sed than Andy
    Gilbert - Didn't have it in the classics bus what getting there, will ride the Tour
    LL Sanchez - Taking Blanco to court for not letting him ride I think
    Navarro - Tour ( I think? )

    Isn't Chinny (Cancellara) all in for the Worlds RR? Not doing the Tour in order to prepare?
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    Is that him done for the year then or will he ride the TDF/Vuelta but not to win it?

    Since Cofidis got a wild card for the Vuelta, I'd expect Navarro to ride it. With Coppel, Le Mevel, Edet, Bagot, and Taaramäe as possible GC contenders he might even skip the Tour now.

    Cancellara is planning to ride the Vuelta and probably drop out in preparation for the World's RR - no Tour.

    What makes you think he'll last that long :mrgreen:
    The dissenter is every human being at those moments of his life when he resigns
    momentarily from the herd and thinks for himself.

    Maybe that should be added to the ptp, "Which stage will Schleck abandon on?"
