Longer season than the pro’s

Well guys, our season is over, after 110 race days, more than any pro’s racing days, I think… My morning coffees this year have been dedicated to choosing my teams, so I’m going to have to find something else to do for the half-hour morning coffees for the next few months…
Congrats to The Manx Missiles for winning the overall. I finished 6th in the overall table, which is not bad. My only regret is not having won the TdF. I finished 5th in the premium overall there, some 109 points behind the winner, but work related circumstances had made me miss four transfer days during the Tour, one of those days being a break day… So, assuming that each of those transfer days had brought me some 23 extra points (which is a fair bet, I think), I should have been in the mix for winning the TdF. Those extra points could also have helped me fight for the third spot in the overall (Manx Missiles and Punctured were unbeatable for the first two spots I think). But work is work, and I imagine everyone missed some transfer days over the grand tours this year…
That said, I liked this year’s rules and I like the separation between star riders and domestiques… some races are won with the star riders, some are won with the domestiques… I like having to make out in advance if the next race is going to belong to one category or the other… Cheers mates!
