    1,2,3 for me and nothing
    1,2,3 for me and nothing else, the crash in the last 3km pretty much ruined my chances of anything more. Looks like it happened up front and split the peloton badly, reckon the likes of Ferrari were caught up in it.

    I make it Cav, Viviani, Bouhanni, Nizzolo, Goss but Bouhanni was doing a Renshaw so not sure if he’ll get demoted.

    I’m probably going to do both
    I’m probably going to do both teams as purist, due to the fact that Exeter Uni decides to put our exams during the first two weeks of the Giro so I wont have time to do it properly.
    ‘Standard’:
    Sanchez
    Bouhanni
    Scarponi
    Kelderman
    Casar
    Santambrogio
    Aru
    Navardauskas
    Mezgec
    I might mess around with it for the last week, seeing as how I will have a decent number of transfers.

    Viviani
    Ferrari
    Bennati
    Chicchi
    Dehaes
    Mezgec
    Gavazzi

    9 sprinters with a view to making no transfers tonight (I never bother with TTTs) then I’ll switch out the flat guys for more climby types. It’s likely that Mezgec and Gavazzi will end up stuck in my team for the full three weeks.

    Took me along time to come to this team

    standard

    Cav
    Bouhanni
    Degen
    Viviani
    Blythe
    Nizzolo
    Gavazzi
    Dekker
    Cattaneo

    Had Goss for most of the week but figured too expensive for today. So he will prob bloody win today when Ferrari takes out Cav!

    May the 4th be with you my young Jedi Padawans!

    Looks like a lot of us have similar ideas as far as tactics go picking teams for stages 1 and 2 combined so as to have 4 transfers for stage 3.

    I thought the plan of having riders 6,7,8 and 9 as cheap guys from good TTT teams was going to be a bright idea but it seems everyone’s at it……although I can’t help thinking there’s another minor tactic being missed which 6 of mine pander to(most who know me will know what that is)?


    Young riders maybe?

    I was tempted to put the cat(Gatto)amongst the Pigeons but hope that my kids can scare the birds instead and move back up the Forum’s Scorum’s,London and Overall leagues……also hoping for a 10k badge by the end(should be easily attainable especially with Cali pts to add also).
