According to that article from June 11th the riders will be Cav, Renshaw, Goss, Eisel, Martin, Van Garderen and Peter Velits. The remaining two spots are a throw up between Bak, Rasmussen, Grabsch, Pate, Albasini, Martin Velits and Roulston.

The article is kinda old but all I could find

Van Garderen, Albasini and M.Velits are going to the tour of Austria, so no tour for them

Hi, signed up after just reading posts for the last few years but don't follow cycling anywhere near as much as I'd like to.

Outside of the Sky guys & Martin who was discussed, how close were some of the other British & Irish pro-tour riders to getting a tdf ride and not necessarily just this year but in the next few too.

Thinking of Blythe at OPL, Lloyd, Deignan, the Irish champion at HTC, is Bellis still riding at Saxo? and any others I've missed.

Was toying with putting a few quid E/W bets on Sagan for some of the early stages, so probably saved me a few bob. Disappointing him & VanGarderen won't be there. Couple of transfers in my Fantasy TDF team already & a 3rd if EBH drops out.

Yes Bellis is still riding at Saxo, it's a long slow comeback but things are looking good. He still has trouble with his breathing due to muscle wasteage around the lungs from his long time in hospital. He recently rode in the Ster Electro, he rode the prologue, stage one and 85km of stage two.

I'd still pick them for the win.
