Spirig is not going to pull back any two of these riders...... Kingma/Duffy/Learmouth/Knibb/GTB.
She is swimming far too slow these days.
Yes, she can pull back the WC field in Lisbon, but that front group did not have a single "strong" rider in it. There wasn't one rider in the Lisbon front group who can hold the wheel of the five I just listed.
If the front group sits up and looks at each other, Spirig will be there. Then she'll be running against a fresh Summer, Beaugrand, Hayes. And it'll be anyones game at that point.
