I can’t help smiling when reading that today’s stage is described as FLAT! — Amongst other things it climbs one of the steepest passes in the Lake district (over 20%), there’s another good long climb – Chestnut Hill – out of Keswick, Dunmail Raise is uncategorised, and it finishes up a nasty steep climb in Kendal. I know Cav has won on that finish before, however that day the stage was a much more benign affair.

There’s gonna be fun and games today.

Ah, I thought you meant just the results, I didn’t know you meant the scores.

I don’t know when they got done, I took out the riders who DNF a few hours ago, La Vuelta was just quickly done because I currently dont do anything else, so have all the time in the world to put up scores.

Dave works extra hard and long hours. Give him some slack <:P

Then why is it taking so long to get the game results up? I take it you’re not doing the game updates for this competition, then? Or is there some updating of something major going on? Just wondering. Usually scores are up a lot faster than today.

it got stuck for some reason, had to re-run it

Yeah, that’s what I meant… Not that it’s taken so long but that it was saying it was updating for such a long time… But now it’s up! Thank you! 🙂

Yeah, they’re taking hours! Got used to seeing the Vuelta results up in 20 minutes… I’m itching to see the game results but the site is still updating… It seems like it’s taking a long time today…

Not having Ciolek 2 days running has ruined me! Gutted as had him initially but binned him to make space for a bunch of tossers like haussler and Visconti for today 🙂
More fiddling required for tomorrow one feels

Good finish today, really enjoyed watching the race. So weird watching a guy like Quintana racing through Ambleside!

Yeah it was a real treat seeing one of the up and coming superstars in Britain racing through the wind and rain, lets hope it attracts more for next year.
