Setting this comp up now, hopefully opening tomorrow. I’m awaiting decent profiles from PCS, the official ones are pants. Some curious things with the start list as well. Two of the folk down for the Swiss Cycling Team are in the Tour of the Alps for their trade teams, I’ll update these guys later today or tomorrow; and Patrick Muller is racing for Vital Concept at Liege, so he’ll be a late edition.

H,mmmmm Great this time last year too and then didn’t make the podium in TDF. Got to prove it on the big stages

Double congratulations to the doc. Your wins in forum scorum were as convincing as Roglic’s. You don’t also happen to struggle in grand tours do you?

Thanks Gecko…this tour was kind to me… I won the last grand tour btw (Vuelta)…

Looks like the finish line may have moved down the mountain. Ciclislmo has the final climb from yesterday at 12.5 km @ 5.7%….PCS has just updated the route with the final climb 10.5 km @ 6.6%….

I think the difference is Ciclismo includes the flatter section after the KoM, PCS doesn’t.

Wish I had waited to make my transfers this morning and not last night.

Who would you have got instead of Zakarin?…he might still be ok….

I would have kept anoher transfer fro tomorrow

Howson maybe. He should manage the climb OK and will do OK in the ITT.

Zakarin could do an OK ITT but possibly won’t have the motivation to make the effort if he is low down on GC.

The whole stage is impossible to predict now. Not long enough or hard enough to put fatigue into anybody before that final climb. Lots and lots of riders are really good up a single climb….it could be a complete surprise.

Went against the grain a bit

Went against the grain a bit with my plan from yesterday, Only brought one in…Grosschartner…thinking  and hoping that Bora may have shifted emphasis with a shortened course. 

So many riders back in play now though for today’s stage.

Two transfers left.

[Condor Andy]

I have one transfer left that

I have one transfer left that I’m saving for tomorrow. TdG out for a TT specialist.
