Purist

Contador ( Really like the Saxo Squad )

Sagan (speaks for himself)

Mollema (team is totally set up for Mollema to give his best go)

Pinot ( my number one pick for youth, as I really like this bloke always have, if only you were allowed to use training wheels to descend)

Bardet (my number 2 for yth, extra points help I hope)

Tom Dumolin ( This bloke is absolutely flying and stamping himself as a serious TTer)

Visconti ( was backed earlier in year to win TDU before falling if I remember first stage. Seems to have some back well with 4th in Nationals last month.( How good does Fromolo look )

Oliviera (this bloke is a pretty smart TTer and was bought across to Lampre by Rui Costa, Oliveira said he hopes to learn lots, he is already climbing better, winning Portugese Nationals (both TT and ROAD last month beating the likes of Rui and Machado)

Last but not least my BIG GAMBLE
his last chance before he goes on my BFL=Barred For Life.

REIN TARRAMAE ( we know what promise he showed a few years ago, he seems to have shown a bit lately at Turkey and Rhone. I am hoping he will go for KOM and get Cofidis on Tele)

Good luck everyone, well nearly E1.. KILLING IT…….

What a day – went out to
What a day – went out to Cragg Vale to watch, just a phenomenal experience. Hard to put into words, so I won’t. Suffice to say I, and a million or so others, had a fantastic time.

Fantasy-wise, I should’ve gone with my gut (GVA & Nibs) rather than the odds (Gerro & Kwia), but hardly a disaster. Very interested in seeing how Kwia goes now, surely getting him in the white jersey must be OPQS’s plan B now Cav is out.

Taken two pens for tomorrow, which wasn’t in my original plan. Sometimes you just have to take a hit, I suppose.

I dropped like a stone today. 5 transfers wasted including putting Modolo back in after he withdrew. D’oh!

Same

although the 10 penalty points for Vanmarcke was more annoying, knew I should have gone with GVA, although my call on Albasini was decent enough.

Argh… How shitty… that sucks… I hope Dave puts the ‘Reset Button’ up some day… It’s a little crazy to have to wait to see if stuff like that happens before you select your next day’s team… It adds to the excitement, but, argh, I feel fpr you… Where’d you hear?…

I made my change, then saw the post about him being removed about half an hour later. From now on I am going to wait a few hours before changing my team.

Damn!

Kwiato, Sagan, GVA closed
Kwiato, Sagan, GVA closed that gap down to just 2 seconds so quickly at the end when they actually turned it on that I’m thinking they could have easily brought Nibali back when he first attacked if they’d just gotten their act together earlier. They dropped the ball on this one.

What an absolutely cracking
What an absolutely cracking stage, never mind your flat run in to london, this is what the tour is all about.

A massive well done to Yorkshire on producing 2 brilliant stages, roll on France.

Oh and i haven’t a clue how well i did, to busy watching the stage !

[VVV73]

I knew forgetting to grab
I knew forgetting to grab Sagan would bite me in the bum today, Oh well this could possibly be my worst result ever in Standard and took a 10pts pen for the pleasure LOL.
Pretty happy with Purist tho which is my main concern atm, with a 4,8,10,13 and 4 of the 5 spots for youth Jersey.
