Yeah, those are two good guys for the job, although I don't believe either are very good TT riders, one of Purito's problems. One has to wonder how long Aru will sit behind Nibali before he makes a move.

I was thinking about Thibaut Pinot from FDR, who had a great TDF, but he was invisible during the Veulta, so I'm not sure how to read him yet. Garmin has 3 GC contenders in Talansky, Hesjedal and Martin, so maybe one of them will look to make a move?
