Volta ao Algarve stage 5

I'm finding this one very tricky to decide. My team is doing very well, 7th I think ahead of processing.

Do I risk some guaranteed points on Kwia and/or Bertie on Cav and Demare????? Especially as I want 4 sprinters which would mean 20pt penalty.

Tricky as.

only 10. Most of my GC scorers have been in my team posting low scores for a good few days now.

Full house badge though!

It is risky but I reckon you've done the right thing Joelsim. Although I was unwilling to risk Cav, so went Lobato instead, and kept Rui Costa. I'm miles back in this one though...

A bad day for me yesterday as I slipped from 7th to 33rd. Have taken a big risk for today's stage taking out Kwia's guaranteed points and replacing him with Cav.

Not only that I've added 3 further sprinters, Demare, Modolo and Coquard and I then needed a 3.0 so Pereira is in too.

Risky, especially given Cav's form and 30 penalty points.

In for a penny...
