Brought in Eisel and Pate today, as they were the only THR riders I could afford, and I reckon CAVs going to win - so they'll get 5 pts each.

Some may think I am being a little contradictory when I seem to slag off CAV all the time, but to be honest, I have a soft spot for all the British riders including CAV.

So, Go THR today, and may SKY come second !

Well the KM wont change at all tomorrow, so wouldn't be looking there for points

Break aways WILL be left out there because the intermediate sprint is only 25km from the finish, so the bigger names wont be wanting to use their trains and energy for that one when the finish is flat

Also dont listen to me, i've transferred someone in who i think will break because its flat, turns out he's a mountain goat, but he might just want to test his legs

Plus i'm banking on a Frenchman who seems determined to make a break work at any cost, he'll cost you 10 and is a DS

I do believe Vincent Jerome is French and not had a go yet  19

But i think i have just transferred in the other one who may just have a shot at it because its flat  16

Who's french and not had a pop yet?  1

flat as a pancake so tomorrow's break is certainly doomed; it'll need to be riders low in the GC...

Wouldn't be banking on Roux again tomorrow, he had a double attack today and will be done for tomorrow

As for suggestions, i'm now stopping helping on here because everytime a name is mentioned their stars/popularity seems to shoot up  20

Isn't popularity directly proportional to value? Prey on the people by suggesting people you wish to swap out in next stage. Increased popularity might just get you some extra points for them  3

Other than 1 stage, Galimzyanov hasn't done anything for me. Thinking now if I should swap him out.

Roux would cost 2 more but will likely get 4 pts tomorrow by staying 2nd in KOM.

Delage is cheaper but might get 1 pt at best tomorrow from KOM. But there's hope with him of winning some points in intermediate.

Still, any other suggestions?
