Who do you pick to win the Tour de France this year? How about the sprinter’s (green) or climber’s (polka dot) jerseys?
The 2016 TdF starts Saturday, July 02, and BikeRoar has its own preview and predictions here.
Let’s see if you share the same outlook or can out-predict us.
Pinot in the maillot jaune. Everyone is going to ignore him for the GC because he’s French, and therefore doomed. Still in the running after the time trial, he bides his time till stage 17. Hanging with the breakaway group, he leaves the points for the sprinters, then goes solo up the Col de la Forclaz. Capturing the yellow, he keeps it straight through to Paris. Froome and Quintana end up duking it out for second.
Two words and all of 58kg - NAIRO QUINTANA!
I don’t have a fancy narrative, I just know when it goes up he throws down. BAM!
