    Hi folks. I notice the start list for the Strade Bianche stage is not up to date. I’m under the impression that both of Sagan and Kwiatakowski (amongst others) will be starting the race and definitely amongst the favourites. Will there be an update?….

    Scores for the race will be up later, I’m in a hotel with crap internet so it would take days to upload.

     

    I think there may be a problem in that team. I watched him hanging out the back today all on his lonesome….seemed very little attempt to bring him back in…in fact none…

    It’s just mad some of the odds we get in cycling. As it turns out Izzy did nothing but at 100/1 he won’t do nothing every race. 

    I’ve never been in a bookies in my life but if i did i’d be on cyclists way ahead of horses…

    Ion Izagirre with odds of 100

    Ion Izagirre with odds of 100/1 on a finish like La Flèche…what am I missing?

    i know  there’s a slight  chance he may be sent out to just keep the pedals turning over but anything else and those are really good odds.

    Oh aye. Not doing anything just yet. 

    Sagan is installed as the bookies favourite so far but i’m just not sure. Even a bloke made out of left over bits of a world war one battleships might struggle to recover from Paris Roubaix…My dilema is to gamble that his 37.0 is better split for other riders…also Kwia and Gilbert very much fancied but then i just don’t see the form really…

    Just not sure that the game is backing the right horses this time.

    Maybe some confusion with riders crossing the finish line a lap down.

     

    Yes that makes sense.

    Wallays finsishing the race a few seconds down on Van Aert,  whileGilbert an the others have another lap to go.

    Say this comment before I

    Saw this comment before I went to bed last night and said I’d check up on the results today.  They haven’t changed, so I agree with Johnny, they may have been a lap down.  I’ll keep my eyes on the results and this thread to see if any changes are needed.

    He hasn’t been removed, he hasn’t been added yet.  I’ll be updating the start list later.

    15 confirmed rosters so far, so I’ll be updating today.
