    Tough decisions to make today, will Txurruka go in the break again?  Will the same people be racing for the win or will the slightly easier finale make for a different selection.

    My transfer decisions are basically which 2 of 3 riders do I drop for which 2 of 3 I want?

    I can either drop Fuglsang and Barguil for Ulissi and Didier or another sub 6 credit rider or I can drop Peraud and Barguil for Ulissi and Txurruka.

    I don't really want to drop Peraud and I'm worried that Txurruka pretty much has the jersey sewn up now so won't go in the break today but he's a guaranteed 10 points whatever happens.

    I don’t think this will be allowed to go to the finish. Velits is only at 1:49

    Yeah, I meant sticks as in becoming the day’s break, which it looks like it is. I’m sure it will all be back together before the last climb, but hopefully not until after the last intermediate sprint…

    Maybe, just maybe

    Same for me with Ratto in my purists, hopefully will take the sprints


    Ratto going well – won the second sprint and will be in the top three over the cat 1 climb here… 😀

    I realised that was what you probably meant soon after I posted but it was too late :<
