I wonder too, but that's a luxury, really. Mollema and Ten Dam both moved. Battaglin and Roglic are OK climbers, Gesink will ride the TdF so no Giro. But other than Sky, Tinkoff and Astana, what teams do you see that can deliver decent support with two or three domestiques to their lead man in mountain stages? Money probably is a factor, since Rabobank is no longer the big sponsor

I do look at Lotto-Jumbo and often wonder what the hell their recruitment strategy is. They've some decent riders, like Kruiswijk, Vanmarcke and Gesink, yet you can guarantee that none of them will have support when they need it. Baffling.
