Tour de Romandie - Stage 5 (ITT)

Presumably it's Froome's now, but the rest of the podium is up for grabs. I think it'll be Spilak and Kelderman, with Costa narrowly missing out.

Bert Grabsch is first to finish in 23:01.060

That's not going to count for long. Durbo and Tuft tearing up the road behind him.

Took a twenty point hit and gambled. Need big days from Rui Costa, Martin, Kelderman and a couple of others to pay off.

Also being 7th in the purist and looked at thinking could I get above the few guys in front of me, with the riders Talansky, Froome, Spilak and Betancur, but nope Obutterwick is 8 points ahead but has the same riders as well as Rui Costa and Dennis  13  20

Basically I need Rui Costa to have a nightmare for both my teams sakes

Well I didn't know what to do and didn't want to loose any points and make penalty transfers, I nearly did but was 0.4 credits from affording Burghardt to make it worth while. So only 7 riders for me

Pinot
Porte
Martin
Malori
Kelderman
Betancur
Dennis

I have incurred no penalty points, but it meant leaving out Tony Martin. If it weren't for my terrible record in TTs recently, I'd still be fairly happy with my team...

Froome
Kelderman
Rui Costa
Brajkovic
Boaro
Tuft
M Wyss
Ludvigsson
Goos

Don't know anything about Goos except that he's young, so I'm hoping he turns out to be a bit of a TT specialist...
