Kwaitkowski

I was supposed pick him as my pick but forgot to post before the race. Gilbert strongest, but not strong enough to drop everyone, hence he couldn't win. Matthews probably lost Gilbert that race by managing to hang on over the Cauberg.

Yeah I thought Matthews just dropped his head and Gilbert eased and missed the sign. Gil went again but bling had a second wind and that was that. Great win by flower , few have managed that wearing a stripey jumper.

Today,s race will all be about the last 5k, of which 4 will be teams trying to ensure their rider is placed as well as possible despite the new hill inserted to try and disrupt that happening, the final k being a question of timing that last 150, 100 or 50 m balls out sprint to be crowned the Fleche Wallone winner.
I,m going for Valverde*spit*

Sadly, I think Valverde too. *another spit*. Really disappointed that Dowsett joined that bunch TBH.

Don't think Dowsett is in a position to pick and choose teams, and anyway, I don't see an issue with Movistar.

Valverde is favourite, but I'm going for Kwiatkowski for the double today.

One riders is not enough to discredit a whole team. I don't know what the team as a whole did in the past, but I would focus on what they are up to now, unless you think they are still/currently systematically doping.
