Agree - Rest of Romandie was a disaster after being caught behind a crash in stage one - Think BEX are aiming for pink. I suspect some of the GC riders to take a no risk approach if they encounter wet conditions.

Not sure. I was watching GCN/Eurosport, and I think it was Rob Hatch (or Dan Lloyd) who mentioned something about possible showers on the day (40 to 50% chance).
The board is praying for castroviejo now.
You’ll have to record it though so we know you did it
Lol at being the favorite. He has literally one top 5 in ITTs and basically hasn't trained on the TT bike all winter.
The ITT field here is weak. He's super motivated (we all know how he did last time he was super motivated in an ITT), the parcours are perfect for him. And it's Van der Poel. I would be surprised if he isn't in the top 3 at least.
Canyon went overboard
Same setup as in the Tour and a bit different from the usual team bike for TTs. Let's see if he goes again for an unbranded Lazer helmet or goes with the Abus.
Dumoulin the man to beat. Peio to put an additional 30 seconds between him and his leader. MVDP will not keep the maglia rosa. Top 15 for Nibali.
Then Dumoulin will briefly run into Nibali while wearing the pink jersey, and their short convo will go as follows
Tom: "Party like it's 2017?"
Vincenzo: "No, no English"
I agree that Nibali can do well here. Decent history in time trials, and it's a technical course.
First TT in competition with Astana + mysterious shape = The bag or not the bag
Old TT positions were so terrible lmao.They could have done more.
Even Cancellara's position doesn't look good compared to the top TTers nowadays
Tratnik is not going to have an easy ride with his painful wrist

Very warm today. There are some clouds but no signs of rain so far. Last km is very scenic.
I took some shots during the riders recon.

Have you seen Arensman? And if you have, he was pedalling well?
I honestly have him as my favourite for the stage.
