Wilba60 said:As I mentioned earlier I am sure OGE will take in the same plan as last year and Albasini will be the designated rider. He is in similar form to last year and his ride to cover moves at Amstel will have been with Flech Wallonne in mind. My feeling is that they will save Weening for support for Gerrans at Liege and someone like Sulzburger or Clarke will go on the attack and let Alba cruise in the peleton. Or they will leave them to look after Alba and use one of the Meier, Meyer's to go up the road.
I think the race suits Albasini who usually does well at Amstel and Fleche. Gerrans is doing the right thing resting up for Liege. Would like to see some of the GE riders look to get into breaks, early and late in the race especially Clarke.
