I imagine he will be joined by Dowsett then as it would be a shame to miss out on his home tour if Movistar are riding it. Is there a TT stage this year?0

Hopefully there'll be a sportive full of MAMILS after, that's where the eating is!0

But yeah if he's riding, Dowsett in a 10 mile TT has to be worth a ptp pick!0

He dislocated both thumbs at the Eneco Tour today and abandoned. But should be recovered in time for the ToB:

If it doesn't move and should, use the WD40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the tape.0 -

Very nice but I think the ToB doesn't contain the hills he would be looking for.0 -

Its the only stage race that's going to work with his schedule between time back home in Colombia, and the Worlds.
He's going to be a massive draw for a lot of people here.0 -

'here' meaning some cycling geeks living in this here country who'd fancy moseying along to the roadside
I'm might scoot down to Devon for the Dartmoor stage to see what could be a semi-surreal sight of Quintana on Haytor, but maybe I'm just billy-no-mates on that0 -
