as much as i'd love to see fabian or tomeke take a big win, they're getting old and a little shy of what it'll take to get it done.

etixx has strength in numbers and with the crappy weather prediction zdenek would be a smart choice, but that team has an uncanny ability to fumble a race away despite overwhelming strength.

sagan is on great form, but i think roubaix will have to wait another year to see him wheelie on the roubaix velodrome banking. this is not the year to see another flanders-roubaix double.

we are seeing a changing of the guard...i'm going WAY OUT ON A LIMB...it'll be someone unexpected, but still classy...it's gonna be SKY, either geraint or stannard. there...i said it!

my picks are in the other thread, but I'll throw em down here too for completeness.

1. Boom
2. Vanmarcke
3. Cancellara
WC: Keukelere
WC: Sagan


And what is this bad weather you mentioned? My version of the forecast looks quite pleasant.

Interestingly, consider this table of odds from two days ago. Further below, the table from just now. Boom and Stybar's odds have improved.

Matt, you are still wrong here, despite offering up conflicting data. ;)
