Stage 4 La Vuelta

That's a problem with the Vuelta fluffchucker - the points the race puts up on its website as the official scores straight after the stage, often change overnight. It's the only one of the grand tours that does this on a regular basis - don't know why, but last year was the same too. Because of this we did issue a warning after stage 2 that scores will have to be regarded as provisional until the next day… it's a right pain.

Just back-checking on the Baza > Sierra Nevada points scoring & there seems to be quite a few discrepancies with how the stage actually finished.
Is it an error or have I misread the rules?

I've abandoned following this race, I've not seen any of the tv coverage, and I can't be bothered to trawl through the figures on road.cc, I think I'll go out on my bike instead...

I agree with GKam about Wiggo, at this stage it's just about staying with the other contenders. In other news, with my abysmal score I dropped about 4-500 places

OK, That;s it. The brits are not doing it. Cav is out.
Wig can't accelerate/sprint. So Wiggins is sacked.

Along with my other Sky rider.

Instead I've gone for a Very Devious But capital gamble (crytic clue there) instead.

But Rodriguez will win tomorrow unless he thinks he might be peaking too soon.

mm 33 pts not too bad

Hells. 7 Points :"( from Wiggo and Kruijswijk.

My wife and I watched the first two stages of the Vuelta on ITV4 and found the Aussie commentator absolutely awful and grossly irritating. We normally find Sean Kelly very trying as he manages to mangle the English language in a cruel manner, but from now on we'll be watching Eurosport. A shame really, because ITV4 do cover cycling, whilst the BBC absolutely ignore our great sport.

13 points :''(. Would've been an awful lot worse without Geniez.

it came from the skysports infostrada feed . . . copied and pasted - flags becames words

Sorry GKAM

So bad for me again, i wont even get 10 points

yh bit the UCI dont normally say no, especially as we still dont know why he abandoned, but i think if he goes anywhere he will go to the classics in canada

It did say it would be likely that he would be allowed to go to the tob as the grand tours dont like to annoy riders and put them off coming back.

doubtful, not seen there numbers

Were Stannard or Degenkolb up at the front?

well ive seen wiggo, cobo, nieve and machado in there so ive got men in that group for defo, not sure about taaramae, capecchi or breschel.

The ones not in for defo are bennati and kittel

the whole of my team is pretty cheap tbh, with wiggins gc, cobo one of cheapest climbers, nieve cheapest all rounder

Has anyone seen SKY today? Where's the wig? (And I don't mean Rooney)

Did anyone xfer in LASTRAS?

and Van Avermaet is being dropped. . . . fancy that ! . . . good job he was cheap and i could then afford another transfer in. . . . MM
