Big couple of days coming up when we see who’s got some legs in the mountains. Can’t see any credible challenger to Wiggins unless a real climber goes on the attack and Van den Broeck looks the best placed. Will Martins and Rogers drop today! I’ve taken them out and gone for some riskier riders.

By the way there are 243 fantasy mountain points on offer in the next two days and about double or more that in the real comp. :B

Had Evans in for a while now. He is attacking and I like that. Same for LLSanchez who had a bit of a go today but never likely to stick. Nibali could have a go with Evans as well but Wiggins seems to be not too bad at descending either so I can’t see him giving up the lead.

Otherwise I’m packed with mountain guys. Just hope I’ve got the right ones. I can’t think of many stages with so many mountain and possible breakaway points available.

Ive got rid of Tony Martin
Ive got rid of Tony Martin for an attacking Cadel, and Leigh Howard still in from the TT and flat stage (when he did nothing X( ) axed for the worlds most attacking rider since May: Andrey Amador. Hoping for some big points, could go badly wrong. As you guys say, theres no bike at stake, so what the hell? 😀

There’s no bike at stake!! You might as well have some fun!!

Haha thats a good point actually! B-) Playing safe is just my style, gets the practice in for when a bike is at stake 😉

83 points was enough for 42nd
83 points was enough for 42nd on the stage pushing me up 136 places in the Dauphine,1places2 in the overall,6 places in the overall(premium)and 2 places in the regional.

Chavanel and Bernaudeau out for LLSanchez and Sarmiento tomorrow.

54 for me. Probably change
54 for me. Probably change Grivko and Durbridge for tomorrow. Got a pretty good idea of who’ll I’ll go with but I might do a tiny bit of research first. Don’t think stage 7 is going to be much different from today and tomorrow but might switch a couple of stars.

Not sure how far behind I am, thought of Di Gregorio and Mederel for today but went with star changes instead which didn’t massively come off yet. Win still up for grabs though as there’s no real way to play safe. Who would have thought Vichot would win?! Glad for him as he helped me win my one and only TdF stage last year.

My purist squad for the Dauphine has managed to erase most of the progress I made winning the Giro. I guess that’s what happens when you stop putting any sort of research into your team. 😐

Most have Cadel that I don’t
Most have Cadel that I don’t though, although if Brajko shows some form im quids in….

Want to get rid of rogers but cant raise enough funds without axing coppel

48 points over 2 stages isn’t impossible, especially if you pick the right guy for the break tomorrow… 😉

Hoping my guy scores some mega points tomorrow. Lost a few GC points today but nothing significant to affect my lead in East Anglia I think.

And Edet and even Pauriol picked up a handful of points. Even poor old Bernadeau is still worth 3 and is probably worth keeping for tomorrow as the big climb is at the end. He’ll probably try and mop up a few points after the break have taken their piece of the action. A whopping 157 fantasy mountain points available tomorrow.

I had all of those except LL (not as i was playing safe i had them for yesterday, although did put kelderman in, and plaza as my risk, pires also my risk (payed off))

Cant be many that have had gallopin from the start like me

Think im gonna make 1 change for tomorrow, breakway guy hopefully in for plaza

Giving me 3 for the last stage where i can take out rogers and play abit of a gamble
