    What are we expecting today then? I had a very sprint-biased team yesterday which obviously didn’t work out too well, so have taken a ten-point hit, but still not really much of an idea who will do well.

    Brought in Westra, and Tejay, and someone I didn’t expect to go for all season – Andy Schleck – who looked fairly comfortable and interested yesterday.

    Still have 4 sprinters though, so won’t be a good day – expecting to lose my 2nd place in the Forum Scorum’s league tonight! (And then take it back tomorrow with an 80-point solo win from Wauters in the Giro. Maybe.)

    Fair enough I took a risk, was gonna bring Tejay in but that would have messed me up for tomorrow. Think Westra, Mancebo and Avecedo should all be up there for me

    They look like they are putting ice packs down their tops to combat the heat.

    Watching it on the Amgen website, the road they are on looks bloody brilliant, oh for downhill stretches like that over here.
