    Tour de San Luis Stage 3

    Todays stage looks pretty hilly but it has only one categorized climb, a Cat 3, climb approximately 55km into the race. There seems to be some steady climbing towards the end, but it may come to a sprint finish. Who knows?’

    Here’s our current leaderboard. Some teams are stacked with sprinters, so we’ll see what happens today!

    At least stage 4 looks like a proper mountain top finish….although knowing my luck with this event Cav’ll fly up the mountain and leave His Nibs,Purito,VanDenBroeck,Betancur and Anacona in his wake LOL

    If i get another doughnut on this stage I really need to have a rethink on my reading of stage profiles because 7 of my 9 were picked with this stage and stage 6 in mind!!

    At least all 9 are still in the race!!

    probably not, but at least I
    probably not, but at least I have Phinney, who will surely close the gap for me in the ITT? and Cav who he doesn’t, He does have Gaimon, but I have Arendondo, so that will be 5 more points for me due to Nizzolo’s win, which will make him about 10 points better off for the stage maybe. So he is still catchable should Cav do something later in the race for me and Phinney wins the ITT
