Pozzato nowhere. Just one big mistake, went for EBH instead of Flecha. Otherwise okish.

Boonen
Ballan
Van Summeren
Rast

plus 5 for Vandenbergh

probably drop a few places in both Classics and overall

No sign of Pozzato, took Flecha out for Pozzato & kept EBH in! Apart from Flecha poor showing by Sky.

135 points for me, will go above you now Alan

poor showing by sky? only team that did any work to try and bring back boonen. You cant work yourself into the ground and expect them all to finish in top 20

Sky tried hard, just need to change to Specialized. Whatever you think about them they've got the best bike for this race. Boassen Hagen either not ready yet or never will be.

Great race by Flecha, given his broken hand and lack of training. Why did I doubt you??

1st, 3rd, 9th, 11th, 13th + 5pts Chavenel

But Flecha & Terpstra 4th & 5th were popular riders I did not have. So expect to drop a couple spots overall, and a few more in the Classic series.

Ooh, that's interesting. ASO currently listing Sep Vanmarcke as last finisher. A few people will get a bonus there.

It's Eisel now. But I'm pretty sure I saw Guesdon crossing the line and he hasn't been listed yet, so I think it will change again. Unless there is a time limit?

Probably, if you had Flecha. 3 of my 4 transfers were ok. Ballan, Rast and Vansummeren, just made a mistake with EBH. Was thinking of Terpstra and Paolini as well but that meant getting rid of Vandenbergh, who did ok himself at 24th and picked up 5 points. Thought long and hard about Flecha and EBH but in the end experience won out and his injury wasn't so significant. Pity about Pozzato's slip as he was probably the only one who could have challenged Boonen,(apart from Cancellara), but he is in a different league this year. Agree about Sky, at least they tried, just think they need to change bike as I mentioned below your original comment.

Eisel still listed as last so no points for Vanmarcke. Poor campaign for Garmin, but Phinney did well at 15th for his first time out. Defo one for the future.
