So we all know whats gonna happen today, summit finish, my question is do I axe Zabriske? I did wanna bring in Gesink but i dont have enough credits and I think Nibali will go for it today with Horner and I dont wanna drop him.

At long last - a stage win on my palmares
Me and my inability to be able to read cost me big time.
had i realised morabito was out i wouldnt have dropped zabriske for him and would have swapped nibali for gesink...
At least my faith in having atapuma from day 1 paid off, otherwise my score would have been even worse!
3rd on the stage! Finally a good result.
Didn't know about Dombrovski though as I basically did 0 research on this. Had Duarte for a while, hoping for a break but he finally came good. Should have had Zabriskie for the TT, had Talansky and Danielson instead.
Got in the 4 usual suspects for the sprint today, but no Kittel as he's not on the lists, think he gave up after TT, although he's still in the game.
Check cycling fever start list, all riders that have pulled out are crossed through
Currently 18 riders out o_O
gesink for me and some 10-20 s, Been supporting the livestrongs all week, and would have had dombro if I had known he was the climber'ha ha. Took out horner for sanchez for today.
Big mistake of the week having Sagan, but leaving out hausller 3 times.
Gesink, you beauty! After having broken his upper leg last spring, it's amazing to see him at this level already. Biggest win of his career.
I had Gesink but i dropped Duarte the other day
So i have the win +5 so far, I don't know 11-20 but i'm off to bed, back on the bike tomorrow and try to get a metric in if my heart rate stays decent, lol
I, 2, 3, 5, 10. Bit better than the Giro today. Makes up a bit for missing the deadline for the first stage.
I should've kept Zabriskie...
I haven't.. even though I talked him up pre-tour, but can't say how thrilled I am that he did it, finishing 4th on such a huge stage.
Yes, I remember you tipping him on an earlier thread last week - great ride.
I had Atapuma - finally got one right after dropping Barta from my Giro team yesterday! So 1,2,5,8,10 today leaving me with 1,3,4 overall and 4 transfers for tomorrow - could be a decent finish for a change!
Tejay letting me down.
ive got noone anymore, mine have all gone, velits Nibali, Talansky, meyer (morabito, not even in the race anymore)
Dombrowski! OK, I am a little giddy about how Dombro is riding. One of my faves for the future.
What a ride for Gesink!
Me too, had him all Tour
Currently got the first 5 on the road. Hope it stays like this.
Its all gone wrong
Velits dropped.
I made a right mess of this, I somehow managed to transfer in morabito for zabriske earlier, even though morabito is no longer in the race. Stupid on my part, but i thought riders were taken off the rider list when no longer in the race?
Oh and talansky dropped to nowhere!
To right, I can't stand Chelsea, was hoping for a Bayern win, lots of friends over in Munich as i go there quite alot. Plus i would have liked to see Spurs in the Champions League next year
18km left 1,40 to Horner and Atapuma. They are going to get caught, I'm happy with that. Takes out two from most people's teams
I hope they stay away but not likely
Ok, not sure if they can stay away or not, would be an epic ride if they did and it seems all the teams above bar me have both Horner and Atapuma so i hope they get caught and dropped
Talansky dropped.
Quite happy i don't have any of the break as they aren't going to stay away, no points really up for grabs and they aren't challenging for the points anyway.
Back to the penalty shoot out
Great result.
At least we can ge back to hating Chelsea now.
According to cyclingnews there's a brush fire on Mt. Baldy. Well, that could complicate matters, especially since there's only one road up and down for emergency vehicles...
Bouet and Cherel are AG2R I believe, but yes, very impressive break.
