Giro Stage 21 - ITT

It's finally over, we've made it to the end and we still don't know who's going to take the Maglia Rosa.

Who's your money on for the ITT and the overall?

Is it between Phinney, Larsson and Rasmussen and if so who's survived the mountains in a good enough condition to put in a great ride? Who else has a shot?

Can Rodriguez put in the time trial of his life to keep the jersey or will Hesjedal take it from him at the last minute? Can De Gendt make up any time and make the podium? How will Basso do?

Lots of questions still to answer, its been a great three weeks and for me, the TdF is going to have to be amazing to top this.

If you're new please join in and if you have questions pop them below and the forum regulars will answer as best we can.

Not bad at all; 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 9th, 14th, 16th. Fingers crossed.  1

Phinney had "a problem with a couple of motorbikes" apparently - don't know the details. So maybe he was in good shape after all.

Didn't expect Sergent or Thomas to do so well over the longer distance, fair play to anyone who did.

Ryder was 40-1 at the beginning of the Giro, anyone who bet on that will be very happy. Oh wait, that was me! Makes up for my rubbish decision-making in the fantasy game...  4

2,3,4,5,6,7 on the stage + 1,2,3 GC + 1,2 KOM + 1,3 Points. Enough to lift me from 6th overall? Probably not, but I have loved this fantasy giro all the same  1 Thanks to the roadcc team.

1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 16 and top 3 GC plus points jerseys and +5 for Phinney. 163 I think, about average I'd say.

Yeah, this year's Giro's been great and the competition has been really close, thanks to Dave and the team for making the game better than ever this year (minus a few hiccups).

Time for a nice break... wait, it's only 6 days until the Dauphine starts?! Oh crap, best get planning!

It was close! Still 60 odd points off. Gutted I wasnt premium though! Never mind, I can't really complain that I didn't invest a tenner way back and when. Cheers for running this fantasy cycling though  1 And congrats to 1st, 3rd and 4th and their prizes!

Dave,

what's the official position on running additional teams?

If I run 2 throughout the TdF, is that OK?
