    To have picked Bardet yesterday (a few did) was an excellent gamble.  I had budgeted an extra transfer, but ended up not using it as I could not see where to use it.  I was looking at Bardet, Quintana, Wellens and Porte, but it just seemed a gamble.  It seems clearer today.

    Obviously Quintana would have been alright too!

    Looks like your extra transfer will be useful picking a replacement for Pinot. frown

    Looks like he was taken out by a bee, so so unlucky.

    I suspect he is in everyones team, so will be a problem for anyone with few transfers.

    I think Andy might regret his last one.

    Bardet has said his only goal now is the KOM jersey. I just used my last sub, De Gendt out for Bardet. More points in the mountains the on the final stage methinks. Should have done it yesterday.

    Bardet has said his only goal

    Bardet has said his only goal now is the KOM jersey. I just used my last sub, De Gendt out for Bardet. More points in the mountains the on the final stage methinks. Should have done it yesterday.

    Gone all in GC for today

    Buchmann, Uran, Irviti in for Wellens, Meurisse and Simon Yates.

    BUCHMANN
    BERNAL
    PINOT
    KRUIJSWIJK
    LANDA
    URAN
    IRVITI
    PORTE

    I was tempted to go for Bardet over Uran but decided to play safe.

     

    I believe it will be a GC rider that wins, but I have got Bardet.  He must go for the big KoM points in the break.

    Bardet punt went well….but what about my other breakaway rider,Simon Yates?

    I missed the crucial bit…for a while it looked like Simon was trying to get on a break, but then I went out and came home to see Adam in the break instead…what happened?…wasn’t mistaken identity again early on was it..or did Simon just make a balls of it?


    Simon will have another go this weekend. They might be GC days though.

    That’s the last time I convince myself someone with a great chance of the KOM, would let their out of form brother go for a doomed attempt at a stage win.

    I was already planning to go with Simon Yates, he looked by far the strongest in the break the other day and was the bookies favourite for today.

    Not sure what some teams were up to today. Movistar put pressue on on d’Izoard effectively reducing Quintana’s lead, then when Bernal has broken free Thomas attacks bringing all the GC candidates closer to Bernal.
