No sign of Pozzato, took Flecha out for Pozzato & kept EBH in! Apart from Flecha poor showing by Sky.

Sky tried hard, just need to change to Specialized. Whatever you think about them they've got the best bike for this race. Boassen Hagen either not ready yet or never will be.

Great race by Flecha, given his broken hand and lack of training. Why did I doubt you??

1st, 3rd, 9th, 11th, 13th + 5pts Chavenel

But Flecha & Terpstra 4th & 5th were popular riders I did not have. So expect to drop a couple spots overall, and a few more in the Classic series.

Ooh, that's interesting. ASO currently listing Sep Vanmarcke as last finisher. A few people will get a bonus there.

It's Eisel now. But I'm pretty sure I saw Guesdon crossing the line and he hasn't been listed yet, so I think it will change again. Unless there is a time limit?

Eisel still listed as last so no points for Vanmarcke. Poor campaign for Garmin, but Phinney did well at 15th for his first time out. Defo one for the future.

I was crap at the classics last year, and this is replicated this year, just not good enough

A respectable 127, and even managed 92 for my purist team with only 5 runners. Quite happy with how that turned out and I hadn't really considered anyone who did better so can't really complain.

Dropped only one place in overall so not so bad and increased my lead in East Anglia a fraction.

60 points behind in Classics so need a good next race to catch up. Completely different set of riders so I expect a lot of movement at the top after the next race.

I had turgot in the non-game races we did, but had pichot in the game as i didnt have enough transfers to get turgot in (all 4 of my transfers were correct as all finished in top 13)
