    I like the stupid amount of sponsors writing on the front, but that colour is a no from me. Should be luminous.

    Love the Yates odds. Think he is stronger than Carapaz, but Carapaz has the better team. If there were more TT km's, I'd pick Yates. I wouldn't bet it, because while the odds are good, I don't think he will win.

    Don't see value in any of those odds. Carapaz a strong favourite for me but, given the sheer number of things that can go wrong over the course of a GT, those odds suck.

    Assumed my man Arensman would be on long, long odds, but can't find him anywhere better than 50/1 for the win, 16/1 top 3 and 2/1 top 10, all of which looks about right to me. Shame, I thought he'd be more under the radar.

    I think Almeida and Yates look decent value in comparison with Carapaz, but then I always feel Carapaz is a bit overrated.

    Should run a sweep on how Landa loses 1-2 minutes on a non mountain stage....

    Coral got Bardet 14/1 - seems a decent shout for each-way with recent showings
    Old, fat and that's just the bike.

    Carthy e/w looks the best bet to me.
