Expecting echelons now.
No Bouhanni or Sagan, too expensive. Probably a big mistake.

Its ok there will be some respite before I do USA, that is defo gonna be after 11
Doing very badly so far.
Rensburg didn't get the combative award anyway
P.s. Now TER is updating the classics
Can't combine race results.
I have done Vuelta and Womens, had to redo Vuelta because combative was missing
Thanks GKAM, I have van Rensburg in my purist team
What ! I demand a recount.
Can the biggest bigwig at road.cc contact the Vuelta organising committee and demand 10 good reasons why Van Rensburg wasn't the most combative?
And if that doesn't work, escalate the matter to Gary Imlach and King Juan Carlos, and send the navy in !

I imagine that the USA Pro race will have finished before updating completes, so perhaps just combine all 4?
Ok... time for a joke then... ''An Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walk into a pub and each order a pint of Guinness. Just as they are about to drink up, three flies land in each of their pints, and get stuck in the thick head. The Englishman pushes his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fishes the fly out of his beer and continues to drink it as if nothing had happened. The Irishman picks the fly out of his beer too, but holds it out over the beer and yells “Spit it out! Spit it out! You bastard!”
I don't drink.....
I had Styven yesterday.
Which cheers me up no end.
Especially as I used 10 penalty points to swap him out for Debusschere today.
Bouhanni too expensive. Stuyven saved me, sort of. Hope he does another good ride tomorrow.
Decent day id say, took no penalties, so had 1,2,4,9,12 + Castro
Im gonna do Vattenfall abit latter, only just got back from Hull
I'm on Womens and Vuelta. TER is on Classics and USA, Thank god he took USA off my hands, else I'd be here all day
Well, at least you're doing something you love...
Also, going to do the womens race back to back, so will be updating for a while
Are you working alone today?...
...sing me a song while we wait... maybe an old Irish or Scottish song... maybe something you sing when you drink...
No, seriously...
Are you on a live cam anywhere right now where we can see you?... I have this tremendous impression that you are actually quite entertaining in person...
Winner Winner, chicken sunday roast dinner
1 yam-stav 146
Clement last. Everyone finished but no idea how Felline is after his crash.
Guardini puncture 5km before finish
Felline crash
debusschere nowhere
Having a bad super sunday so far in terms of results
Glad it was just bad luck for him. Normally, I have a principle with Guardini: never pick him, unless he's so cheap that taking a chance on him is pretty much like taking a usual chance on a 3 point rider. Today I broke that principle, and was prepared to take radical decisions about him like Joelsim above (by the way, Koldo is forever out for me since Basque Country earlier in the year).
No 'We're Currently Updating the Game?' message anymore?... Where did it go?...
2,3,7,9,10,12.
Happy with that for only the second stage.
There are 2 people in my team who I have decided I'm never picking again. Boonen and Koldo Fernandez.
Damn, Boonen scored! Where was Guardini? Where was Debuschere?...
Where is Felline? I have him too.
1,2,9,10,12 for me, waiting for Felline to come in. Hoping he rolls in last so I at least get 10 points in before I drop him.
Carlos 'Ullrich' Betancur "is chugging a bit".
