    Problem is most of the top
    Problem is most of the top riders will have him as well so it doesn’t matter what happens with his actual position. By having him you’re just marking the opposition. (But that is part of cycling as well).

    Alan I think you should listen to your wife and give up. 😉

    My other transfer was the new LR. It’s a suitably flat stage that it shouldn’t change touch wood!

    Going off at a bit of a tangent, I’m around 200th and reckon that I probably have no chance of winning yet carry on playing. anyone else feel the same? I guess it’s just about kudos.

    What I love about the game is how much it mirrors the actual racing. Right now I’m trying for GC but if my leader gets wiped out then I’ll tumble down the rankings. Likewise anyone respectably high mid table who takes a chance can get in the right break and rocket up into a GC position. Also if I was in a lower position I’d be tempted to give up on GC, then stack my team to try and win a specific stage!

    As for my Frenchies… well one is an actual SP who I’ve had all week. One is a leadout man who’s lost his leader and his jersey, the other (actually the only one I’ve transferred in) already has a green jersey. 😉

    I’m 4th and I think there’s only a slim chance of my winning, but I’m not giving up, (much to my wife’s annoyance). In fact, if I spent the same amount of time earning my normal rate as I do on this I could buy the bike in any case! I’m enjoying watching it though and it’s definitely a fascinating race, still completely open and I love the scenery. It’s also getting my daughters into France and cycling as well.

    Bonnet’s out now I believe.
    Bonnet’s out now I believe. Have you gone for Vichot? He’s not bad on a finish.

    I think the 10 for Lantern
    I think the 10 for Lantern Rouge is a bit generous, maybe 5 is enough. It discourages going for a ‘break’ rider.

    I’ve not bothered with Amador
    I’ve not bothered with Amador cause i’ve ask Jerome to sit up and ride 35mins down or JUST inside the time limit as a special for me, even if he has to sit just on the finish line without crossing 👿 👿

    Got in Boassen Hagen for Schleck. Sky are still going for it! Plus Amador who I should have brought in yesterday instead of Kadri. What was I thinking?

    On a flat stage? those guys will be no where near the front, its a sprinters stage tomorrow

    There will me no movement in the GC 2moro, unless a rider jumps off it will be the same and i’ll bet on that
