    Another great line up taking shape.

    Movistar aren’t messing about with this one with Valverde, Quintana, Carapaz and Soler all lining up. I’m thinking they’re planning on doing well. 

    Also…A tick against Bora but only six riders listed…anybody got any ideas what that’s all about?

    He was working to set up the Yates attack.

    Really. Aye…makes sense. This was definitetly a stage he could have competed in but he doesn’t have to be the chosen one in that team. Actually a very good role for him at the grand tours.

    Yeah…..Won the standard

    Yeah…..Won the standard game for the second year running, that’ll look good on my palmares..Second in the purist game as well…Happy days….I feel like Valverde with all this Catalunya love.

    Also….Just noticed my Vuelta win from last year isn’t on my palmares…any chance of adding it please.

    What another great bike race!

    Gotta love the yates brothers and even Quintana had a go.

    Decent enough finish for my team too which doesn’t hurt but fair play to anyone who picked Formolo, he was strong today.

    Dunno. I’ve had Matthews, Impey and Mccarthy earmarked for these two stages after the mountains since the game began. I’ve never really considered anybody else.

    The chances of Schachmann doing that again two day running are fairly slim..so he’s more likely to be fighting in the peleton for just a reasonable finish….but then again…maybe he will do it again.

    I had Gibbons, Matthews, Impey lined up for these stages but lost a trnasfer with Rosskopf dropping out (I probably should have left him in) and missed out on Gibbons.

    I could see the break winning again tomorrow but with some faster guys included.

    Possibly. Always room for a large break of also rand at this stage of a race. 20 plus riders wouldn’t be a surprise.

    Good pick Steve. Did you bring him back in or did you keep him through the mountains?

     

    He came in on stage 2, more importantly do I cast him aside now for Gibbons?
