With Chris Froome not making the cut, Woods leads a team full of stage hunters such as Dylan Teuns, Simon Clarke and Hugo Houle. The strategy for the team is clear and Woods, who has DNF'd on his previous three Grand Tour appearances is hoping use the method shown by teammate, fellow Canadian and star of the Giro d'Italia,
Derek Gee.
My big ambition is to win a stage and inspired by my Ottawa teammate, Derek Gee, I want to race a really aggressive race, trying to be as active as possible," he explains. "The victory in La Route d’Occitanie gave me a lot of confidence. I’m really motivated and ready to race!”
