Holy crap guys, LANCE is going to be at M-SR! This changes the whole complexion of the race. The question is not IF he will attack, but WHEN, and how much he will win by.

That would be ***. What has Henderson done this year that proves he can beat the best sprinters? Nothing at all. He has one victory at the tour down under classic which sutton would've won if he didn't hit the breaks, and then one victory in paris-nice where he was sprinting against climbers, and barely won.Tugboat said:I saw an interview with Henderson yesterday which suggested that EBH will go for it if the race breaks up on the Cipressa or Poggio but if it comes down to a bunch sprint then it'll be Henderson sprinting for Sky.

He finished 125th last year, so he only has to do better than that to say he is better/stronger this year than last.Jamsque said:Holy crap guys, LANCE is going to be at M-SR! This changes the whole complexion of the race. The question is not IF he will attack, but WHEN, and how much he will win by.
originally in January he was in the list for MSR. But he told us on astanafans before Tirreno that next his race will be Crit.Int.Polish said:Current UNIBET odds fyi...

I think maltiv sees the chances of a Norwegian classic victory evaporate. I'm sure Sky know what they're doing, although to be honest I don't rate Henderson that highly... even Cav beat him this season.Tugboat said:I'd say he's shown pretty consistent form in high quality fields all season to date and the management at Sky would have selected him for that very reason.

luckyboy said:Gilbert, hopefully. Reckon he could do this and Ronde this year.
Exactly my point, he is consistently average, and doesn't have any realistic chance at actually winning unless something extraordinary happens. Then again, I am obviously biased as I'm an EBH fanboy, I guess.Hibbles said:Consistently average. He's not of the quality to win a sprint like would be seen at MSR.
Looking at those odds posted, Hushovd at 25-1 isn't bad value.
BikeCentric said:Farrar and Haussler would be pretty good bets with pretty big pay-offs IMHO but I don't ever bet cash personally.
Night Rider said:Is Haussler starting? I would have picked him but then even if he is starting i doubt his knee is up to it.
