    Well im out all day playing Golf, then going to work, so I thought I’d get this rolling and post my team. Surely today and tomorrow have got to be sprints?

    My team is this

    Cav (for Nibali)
    Viviani
    Bouhanni (for Santambrogio)
    Gavazzi
    Battaglin
    Di Luca (for Pirazzi)
    Evans
    Betancur
    Majka

    Ok so its not the most sprint heavy team, but should have 3 of the top 5. Then ive kept the GC etc who will score me the most, but also based on price. Evans would score more than Nibali due to points, Betancur and Majka will score the same as Santambrogio and Pirazzi. No sprinter for Vini, so Di Luca is as good a shout as anyone to give it a go, and cheap. Just hope I haven’t missed a trick not going Mezgec now Degenkolb is out

    Italian’s use liver as a metaphor for bravery. He is saying that Bouhanni did nothing wrong he was just brave enough to go

    I’m hoping it’s a mistake and it should have gone to Avila for coming last.

    At the last minute decided to take a penalty and add Mezgec as a rainy sprinter.

    They just do not come right often enough do they?

    Still leaves me too far behind, maybe I should get a plane home.

    Wiggins for the tour!

    Goddamit Mezgec – I stuck with you for so long and NOW you come up with the goods?!

    Pff. Cav aside (and Nizzolo in 4th), not a good day, especially plumping for Vivian over Bouhanni.

    Think one of the biggest
    Think one of the biggest problems for Wiggins today was the fact that the maglia rosa group also had the sprinters’ teams in it chasing the break… so Nibali et al just took a tow while OPQS etc did the work, and Sky – a team built for GC, not sprints – were always going to lose time in the last 15k as the break was chased down.

    On another day, one where a break was allowed to stay away, he may have got back on. Was never going to happen today though, sadly.
