Paris-Nice Stage 8

Geraint just tweeted (6.30pm Sat night) that he's got Sunday off - track work starting on Monday.

He said: "Still would have liked to finish it off with the boys. What ever happens tomorrow its been a Top week and top riding from the whole team!!!"

So, just in case you have him in the team or were thinking of bringing him in...

Hi Gkam - no stage points for KOM or points classification today, only for those who finished top five overall in those plus the young riders classification.

i thought it would have been nearer 200 for me, but would have had the same effect on everybody.

Well it has been a roller coaster ride. finished 220, after dropping to 1868.

72nd on the overall
Top in the overall in Scotland,
Top in the overall in regional.

but both of these have very small numbers.

nearly won a stage by accident,

best of all a car length in front of Gkam:evil:

not great but its only a game show, only a game show......  26

Very pleased with 202 points, joint second place on last stage, perhaps that should be surprised as reckoned it to be 188.  1

You must mean in the Paris Nice race, because I've just checked the overall, 59 points ahead over the season  3

Just in from a long ride. I think a nice round 170 for me, the climb points aint counted in the TT are they? plus it was finish line points anyway?

Not all bad for us having LL Sanchez, he at least gets 2 points for 4th in the points  1 (more than if i had left leipheimer)

Not a complete and utter disaster forgetting to hit the 2nd commit button. Cost me about 18pts.

Would be more upset if I had picked JC Peraud over LL Sanchez, which was what I was umming and aahing about
