    So tomorrows a tricky one! Could be cold and is lumpy! They are saying someone who is great at descending has an advantage! Anyone any advice? I have the top 5 in the GC, so is it worth keeping them or ship one out and look for a stage winner??

    Seems like the win is yours. You’re the only purist who has Hesjedal, Basso and Rodriguez O. Congrats. 😀

    As for my team: 1,2,3 on the Giau with Pozzovivo, Hesjedal, Basso but I lost the Giro at the sprint stages. Bennati abandonned too early in the race. Pinotti has disappointed so far. 12th now, hope that I can make at least the top10 (Pinotti, Phinney and Hesjedal for the TT)and then focus on winning the Tour de France. B-)

    I did even worse than I was expecting :(. Don’t think I’ll even bother taking any risks tomorrow – I’ll just enjoy watching the the next 3 stages (without having this game in the back of my mind the whole time), then try to get a good result on the last day.

    171 points and dropped 5 places 🙁

    Probably lost my top 20 place now.

    What’s the thoughts on tomorrow? A nailed on Cav win or chance for more carnage and a random winner from whoever stays upright?

    Bringing in Henao for Inxausti clearly wasn’t the best move, but not too shabby overall, I think (especially thanks to a last minute change of heart bringing in Rabottini).

    Crap stage for me. I’ll probably take some big risks tomorrow, and when that goes wrong try and win the TT.

    Yup big scoring day for sure. I could have been up there if I hadn’t panicked and swapped Pozzo for Casar (WTF was I thinking???). Got top 3 and all the Rabottini points. My pick for the day was Hesjay so I bumped in Rosseler for Keizer (too hilly for the Keizer), close but no cigar…

    yh Cav tomorrow
    Hes and Uran
    yh Cav tomorrow

    Hes and Uran are the best on paper out of the top contenders, Basso 3rd id say. Scarponi has improved, so has J-rod and pozz is the worst

    Sorry, got Scarponi and Uran the wrong way around.

    So are Henao and Uran just riding for themselves now? 😕
