20 minutes to the deadline so not much harm in revealing my team

My team

Christopher Froome (SKY)
Mikel Nieve Ituralde (EUS)
Nairo Alexander Quintana Rojas (MOV)
Roman Kreuziger (SAX)
Tony Martin (OPQ)
Murilo Antonio Fischer (FDJ)
Christophe Le Mevel (COF)
William Bonnet (FDJ)

Hoping that the 5 above me haven’t gone with Martin and he wins today, I don’t think he’ll be out of the top 5 today anyway. Those climbs will suit a proper TT’er.

Yes, Froome has so far won two mountain top finishes and come second on a flat time trial, only behind the current world champion, but today he’s really overdone. How much gall does Froome have to so brasenly beat some of the best climbers in the world by an astonishing and totally unbelievable … 9 seconds.

*sighs* Believe what you want, it’s comical what is going on.

Yes it is, but I don’t think you mean the same thing as I do.

Back on fantasy matters…
Back on fantasy matters… poor day for me, dropped back out of the top 100. Mollema was not a good pick, should have gone Quintana or Kreuziger.

My Purist team though had a great day jumping 85 places up to 79th. Now just 164 points of the lead 😀 Need Gadret now to get into the break on Alp d’Huez (has a chance now Peraud is out), for Quintana to have a flyer a Cavendish and Kittel to 1-2 on the final stage and I might stand a chance of moving right up. Coppel doing something else also wouldn’t hurt.

Glad I picked Monfort over De
Glad I picked Monfort over De Gendt as my cheap Belgian – 7 points gained there!

Also had Péraud in my team though, zero points there obviously but I feel so bad for the guy… crashing that hard on the side where you already have a suspected broken collarbone and bashed up elbow… it’s sickening to think about really.

Awesome stage – great win for Froome!

Mollema came back well at the end.

Monfort the best of the sub-15-credit riders in 12th.

The Spaniards look primed for the Alps…

The Dracula effect!
