Oh by the way, cycling news has the wrong team lists up!

I may have screwed myself over, i though it was only a 3 day race, but its 6 stages

Haha! I didn't even look at the profiles, but according to Cycling News there's a 145k time trial on the last stage... Hopefully blind luck will kick in and I'll do ok, figured with Euskatel being based in the Basque Country the route would be pretty hilly

EDIT: Dissapointingly it's only an 18.9km ITT, not 145km That would have been a laugh, a four hour long TT would really shake things up.

The riders in the break are De la Fuente and Mucelli

Rojas takes the bunch sprint from Poels and Wegmann, followed by Ratto, Vichot, Hesjedal, Meersman, Izagirre. Luke Rowe around 12th I think.

1. ROJAS GIL Jose Joaquin MOV
2. POELS Wouter VCD
3. WEGMANN Fabian GRM
4. RATTO Daniele LIQ
5. VICHOT Arthur FDJ
6. HESJEDAL Ryder GRM
7. MEERSMAN Gianni LTB
8. IZAGUIRRE INSAUSTI Gorka
9. GAVAZZI Francesco AST
10. BAILETTI Paolo UNA
11. IMPEY Daryl GEC
12. ROWE Luke SKY
13. VICIOSO ARCOS Angel KAT
14. VELITS Peter OPQ
15. SANTAMBROGIO Mauro BMC
16. VAN DEN BROECK Jurgen LTB
17. SANCHEZ GONZALEZ Samuel EUS
18. MATTHEWS Michael RAB
19. GALDOS ALONSO Aitor CJR
20. CARRARA Matteo

I've seen two top tens and they have a different Izaguirre... lets hope the one with Gorka is correct

Well 3 in the top 12, but i had the winner, looking good for points today, here are the official results with climbs and points

http://vueltapaisvasco.diariovasco.com/clasificaciones-ciclistas-vuelta-...

Not that it affects me but, in the official site's website, it shows Martin Velits 14th not Peter (If you scored Peter instead of Martin)

Thanks TER - very bad for me today, as usual the not-quite-as-hilly-as-I-thought stages are my downfall - BUT I do have Peter Velits as well as Sammy Sanchez so I should have slightly more I think...
Cheers, Chris

Its a marathon, not a sprint, . . . . i hope
Thanks TER.

I have probably counted this wrong, but . . .
Galdos = 2
Sanchez = 4
Gorka = 14 + 3
2 MOV riders = 10 (kiryienka and Inxausti)
Total 33 ???

aaagghhhh Did Inxausti not start . . . . he was my star wildcard. Flu they say . . .
Flu . . . in Spain . . . its hot there. . . .
Can you hear me seething . . . .
