    Thoughts on the day’s picks?

    I was a bit overburdened with sprinters, so have taken a ten point hit to bring in Nibs, Uran and Visconti. The big news for stage will be bringing in Brad plus a.n. other cheapish tt-er (or a versatile chap like Betancur?).

    Suspect Paolini and Katusha may give it one last push to keep the pink before he well-and-truly loses it after the time trial.

    For now….I still expect him to be in pink after the ITT although the major Disadvantage is that all of his GC rivals will have his time/splits to dose their efforts by.

    Penalty transfers all the way
    Penalty transfers all the way where Wiggins is concerned, unless you think he was seriously injured yesterday then he’s as close to a banker as you can get.

    -10 points for the transfer, +45 for stage win and pink.

    Weighing up how many changes
    Weighing up how many changes to make, planned two teams, one with 4 changes, one with 7.

    The 4 change team is probably a safer bet as the TT is always unpredictable and there’s another road stage on Sunday but the 7 transfer team has Gesink and Intxausti in it…

    Decisions decisions.

    Is there a bonus prize for scoring the same score on both your Standard & Purist teams with a different mix of riders?

    Not a single rider in top
    Not a single rider in top twenty for me. A few jersey crumbs but otherwise a shocker – and with a ten point penalty on top!

    Need a big ‘un tomorrow.

    Watching it on the tv Wiggins
    Watching it on the tv Wiggins didn’t try hard to get back and was virtually creeping down the descent.

    So as for tomorrow it wont effect him and to be honest if that little bit of effort does have an effect he is not the rider everyone knows he is.
