10 Brits in total plus an Irish man which is pretty impressive. Not long to go now....
In reply to GrahamD:

Really pleased that Alex Dowsett will be there.

Especially impressive for Dowsett being on a major GC team.

Just looking at confirmed entries so far and there are a total of 3 Irish there as well.

2 Welshmen; is that a record?

I'm thinking even more impressive is the 2 Manx Men record!

Or maybe 2 from the same house in Bury, Lancashire.

It's such a shame Roche went to sky, I really liked his gutsy style. Careers over for him now .

In reply to Greasy Prusiks:

Career can hardly be over if he is then part of a successful team on the tour

Maybe. He'll never get a go at leading a grande tour again though.

Anyone know what's happened to Dan Martin? Not seen him mentioned anywhere. Shame if not competing as he's another aggressive rider who adds a lot to the spectacle.

Yeah he's riding this year for cannondale garmin. Hopefully they'll let him go on a break or two. Stage 14 looks good for him.

I'm a bit confused. What is Kennaugh's role at Sky, even in the press releases and interviews they outline pretty much everyone elses role but not him. Is he there for development or what?
