Other than Evenepoel and van Aert, i would think about Benoot, Teuns, Wellens, De Gendt (who will never be selected, but hey, i'd consider him) who are all good on all terrain, possibly Vanhoucke, Vansevenant and Van Wilder (if he can show what i think he will show) who are more climbers (though Van Wilder is also an elite TT'er).Who would be the Belgians for that Olympic course anyway? Seems a few people don't see it as much as a climber's course like I would do?
Devenyns and De Plus are very good options as well. I guess Van Avermaet is a candidate as well, but I wouldn't take him.Other than Evenepoel and van Aert, i would think about Benoot, Teuns, Wellens, De Gendt (who will never be selected, but hey, i'd consider him) who are all good on all terrain, possibly Vanhoucke, Vansevenant and Van Wilder (if he can show what i think he will show) who are more climbers (though Van Wilder is also an elite TT'er).
Completely forgot about De Plus... i guess it's been too long since i saw him shine. Obviously, he would be one of the first picks in case he's on form. I had already edited my post to include Devenyns and Serry.Devenyns and De Plus are very good options as well. I guess Van Avermaet is a candidate as well, but I wouldn't take him.
Benoot actually did good work for van Aert in last year's WC. I completely agree with the other 2. Devenyns I'd always take. One of the best domestiques in the peloton in my eyes.The problem is, Benoot, Teuns, Wellens... i'm not sure they will fit the role of domestique. Else, you could consider guys like Serry, Devenyns... who would die on the bike in order to help Evenepoel.
I though Devenyns asked not to be selected for the World Champs last year in Imola as he said he couldn't ride against Alaphilippe? I imagine if Julian is riding the Olympics then he won't be up for selection againBenoot actually did good work for van Aert in last year's WC. I completely agree with the other 2.

It was because he would be riding for a non-DQTer. Riding for Evenepoel will be just fine for him.I though Devenyns asked not to be selected for the World Champs last year in Imola as he said he couldn't ride against Alaphilippe?

1: I think some riders can't really help that their upperbodies move a lot when they ride.Really talented guy but his riding style is offensive. I never get why anybody would anybody move his upperbody that much while cycling. I mean when you are in absolute all out V02 max territory and u are about to fall of your bike maybe, but he does it when he his riding at his ftp and I guess even below.
It's riding without dignity for me, something comparable to a soccer player rolling on the group dying of pain after a minor foul. A drama queen on 2 wheels.
Saturday you meanLooking forward to the day when Mauri and Bilbao battle it out mano a mano on a steep hill.
WTF, the guy simply likes climbing on the tunes of Staying Alive.Really talented guy but his riding style is offensive.

How is Aru not mentioned, as I think he would be the closestHow is Bilbao not mentioned in the style comparison?
Mauri is like a caricature of those mentioned though. I think it's quite funny, but i hope he doesn't change.How is Aru not mentioned, as I think he would be the closest
