MADE FOR HOT DAYS WITH AN AERO FIT
With the same fit and materials as the Cannondale Pro cycling team, the Dubai Tour leader’s jersey is perfect for the warm Dubai climate.
Castelli has partnered with the leading Italian fabric supplier SITIP to give the riders a lightweight next-to-nothing fabric for hot desert temperatures, the high-tech fabric blocks 96% of UV rays while providing excellent moisture management. The jersey is cut in a close-to-the-body anatomical shape for maximum aerodynamic performance when the peloton headed into dusty crosswind sections.

Kittel for sure
Eager to prove his abillity’s after last season and with his new team.
Mark Cavendish for the win! New team – he wants to prove himself!
Kittel gets my vote.
Fabian Cancellara is my pick for this years Tour of Dubai winner.
Kittel
Hi there Sam & Ollie Very impressed with your progress so far and can relate to to bike and tummy troubles on a rather minor scale in a previous life/trek many years ago. Deuflhtigl kids could be Cornish cousins! try responding with Oggy Oggy Oggy . At this rate you could be back early unless you have booked a period with local Guru to chill out halfway up a mountain. Anyway best of luck with bike & bowels, looking forward to next instalment / travel photos etc. Regards Grandad
Kittel for sure!
Gilbert will surprise everyone with the victory!
Elia Viviani. Looking good so far this season.
Mark Cavendish will win again
Elia Viviani. Looks real strong and in-form. Don’t think the British guys have peaked just yet and may wilted in the heat.
Fabian Cancellara his last tour and its a perfect course for him.

HUD guidelines, according to Mortgagee Letter 05-50 (Streamline 203k) states that the purchase and installation of appliances IS permitted under the 203k and the Streamline 203k has a $ 0 min rehab requirement. HUD guidelines under the Stanhard/Redab version of the 203k also permits the purchase of appliances under the 203k, which can be used to satisfy the minimum $ 5k rehab requirement for the Standard/Rehab version. So, YES! Under both versions of the 203k, you can include the purchase of appliances with the FHA 203k loan.
