Still fine tuning, really feel like I should have one French Continental rider. I had Calmejane but swapped him out for Dan Martin.

Have Uran, because obviously this is his year for yellow.

I'm confused why I cannot select Lawson Craddock or Taylor Phinney. EF is getting all serious this year
Yeah, that sounds about right. Ponder a lot. Make some decisions. Then second-guess them.

A good m.o. for the Tour is to do the opposite of what @ooga-booga does. Maybe copy a little from @dstrong. And ignore me.
