Followed you (@MultiplexSlut) and looking forward to listening when I get spare mo.
Cat 4
1 Tjallingi
2 Romero
3 Fedi
3,2,1 points
Good day for both of us yesterday. Went for Durbridge rather than Lancaster in the end.
Today I've got
Kitten
Viviani
Matthews
Swift
Ventoso
Ferrari
Appollonio
Petacchi
Durbridge
2 pens though for Ferrari and Appollonio, more for 3 and particularly 4 than today but thought I might as well do them early as they might get something today as well.
Who have you got?
First time I've announced my team on the forum
Lancaster
Matthews
Oss
Wyss
Petacchi
Nizzolo
Ventoso
Viviani
Kittel
no pens
Pettachi
Viviani
Kittel
Matthews
Ferrari
Chicci
Durbridge
Belkov
Bouhanni
No pens
Petacchi told CN this morning that he wouldn't contest the sprint but they're trying to keep Uran out of trouble for now.
Thought that might be the case but we'll see! Might swap him and someone else out for Bouhanni depending on what happens today. He punctured today but a long way from the finish. He's the one I don't have I'm a bit worried about.
2nd Cat 4

2 Fedi
3 Armee
Chicchi punctures!
Sprint
1 Fedi
2 Armee
3 Tjallingi
6,4,2
1,2,4,5,8, and 12 I think plus Durbridge
1,2,3,4,5,7,8 for me
Not too bad, Ferrari and Appollonio worth the pens, even though I would have preferred Viviani to do better. Might have to bring in Bouhanni tomorrow as I thought!
1, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9 and points for Durbridge.
GOt my podium badge out of the way, but not many others in the sprint.
Petacchi... *shakes fist*
Pretty average for me - 1,2,4,7,8 maybe? I think I saw Dehaes and Hurel coming in around 13th/14th as well. Looks like it might be time to get rid of Petacchi...
o and you can add 12 for chichi too!

Hmmm. 3 transfers made for tomorrow. Ventoso and Petacchi you're history!
Where did you find these?

Just saw them too. They are a lot faster than usual!
1,3,5,6,7,8,19 in my standard with Swift, Matthews, Colbrelli and Chicchi in my purist.
Now then who do i remove for Bouhani ???????????
1,2,3,4,8,11,12,15 plus Matthews in maglia rosa and white
Only Fran Windy let me down from a full house
1,2,3,4,7,8 & 12.
Had planned to leave it as is tomorrow but tempted to swap out Petacchi for Ferrari.
I had planned to leave it for tomorrow but have made 3 changes. Hmmm.
Made a single change - Petacchi out
Got 167 on that stage (and three badges, including Full House) despite 30 penalty points.
How did Kittel get 50 points?... 35 for the win, 5 for PC...
10 for most combative I think
10 for Combativity....
Cue the same complaints as this time last year.
Thank you. You're my hero.
Must... resist... I can't! How dare I disappoint? Quite a memory you have...
From:

Amazing... I don't seem to have changed at all (!) in a year
Other than that, for whatever it's worth (next to nothing, I suppose), substitute Stage 2 of the 2014 Giro for Stage 1 of the 2013 Giro, substitute Wurf and Cavendish in 2013 for Tjallingi and Kittel today , and we have a situation with a 'corrupt' race jury that rewards the 'beauty' points of a magnificent sprint over the pure aggressiveness of a breakaway rider. How 'dare' they award the Combativity Award to Kittel after Tjallingi's heroic efforts? What an insult!
