wasn't that your own theory only anyway? 
and regarding Gibbons... DJW called it, I see, so he may know more

Not much beyond a few of his results at the end of last season. 7th in Coppa Bernocchi, top 20 in Paris Bourges and 12th in Munsterland Giro when he finished in the lead group and ahead of Kittel, Tony Martin and a few other world tour names. He also put in a huge shift in the

champs this year and looked strong on the flat as well as hills.
Not a stunning resume, but enough to suggest that he'd be

's strongest card, which in Langkawi is usually good enough for a few stage podiums and the GC.
