LaFlorecita said:Yes. It surprises me that so many people are so sure they'd get an invite to the Tour. To the Vuelta and Giro, yes (but only if Alberto rides it), to the Tour, not so sure.
You guys might be right. But Saxo is going to need A LOT of extra points at the end of the season regardless, so do you take chance that you'll be able to sign a lot of riders with points (to whom you cannot guarantee that you are going to be WT), or go with a good (not 100%, but good) chance of riding most of top races you care about with Alberto?
