    So not bad at all!

    Congrats Alan! Foiled again – I’ve not won a purist or standard forum comp yet this season, despite being 25th overall in standard and 3rd (somehow) in purist! ~X(

    50th in Vuelta purist and 95th in standard – I’ll take that considering I came 575th in the Vuelta last year!

    Thanks Chris. Wished I’d believed in Nicholas Roche but wasn’t convinced by him even though he’s the favourite rider of Phil Unwin, an erstwhile colleague. (Not convinced by Horner then or now but that’s another thread and I don’t want to set Gkam off on a rant 😉 )

    Without adding up id hazard a guess that Gilbert scored more fantasy points than Pozzovivo, as although high on GC didnt have that many stage placings, but could be wrong, as Gilbert scored more than Sammy

    The best Purist team possible
    The best Purist team possible for the Vuelta? Mostly climbers, of course… Here’s my stab at what would have been the best possible Purist team :

    40.0 Alejandro Valverde
    29.1 Vicenzo Nibali
    20.9 Daniel Moreno
    14.3 Nicolas Roche
    12.9 Christopher Horner
    12.8 Domenico Pozzovivo
    9.5 Leopold Konig
    6.1 Maximiliano Ariel Richeze
    3.0 Haimar Zubeldia

    For a total of 2792 points… benwatson1989’s Rouleurs Revenge Purist) got 2229 points with the following riders:

    Alejandro Valverde
    Vicenzo Nibali
    Sergio Luis Henao Montoya
    Samuel Sanchez
    Nicolas Roche
    Tomasz Marczynski
    David Arroyo Duran
    Ivan Basso
    Christopher Horner

    I guess the biggest surpises for me were Richeze and Zubeldia, well, at least for the beginning of the Vuelta…

    Zubeldia shouldn’t have been
    Zubeldia shouldn’t have been a surprise, he’s finished inside the top 20 of a grand tour 9 times

    Richeze was a good sprinter before his ban and has got some of his form back lately, but getting a little old for sprinting 😉
