"BMC to bolster Classics line-up for Van Avermaet "

"We will strengthen the traditional core around Greg," Peiper added. "At least two classics riders are coming in. The profile? Guys who can assist Greg in the final and who are able eventually to take over the torch from him."

what's the chances of Gerro retiring at the end of the season?

I don't know maybe... he's 37 but apparently Orica keeps you till 40 if you look at Hayman.

In Short,

They'll have to pick 2 superdoms from the list posted above.

Agree. He ran out of team members way too soon on most of the stages in the Giro. With a greater team around him I think he could be the next Froome (sorry Cav' for mentioning THAT name) LOL
