    Personally think that this could be the race of the year looking at the stages and the declared riders so far….I know some will just use it as TdF training but it should be a cracking tour…

    I can’t beat that. Your math(s) is (are) perfect! 🙂 The only thing I can do is match it by changing Bideau for Geslin, but I get the same score! Impressive! 😕 Your brain is something else! 🙂

    As are your game playing skills! 🙂

    Wow! So this purist team could have beaten everyone in the whole competition both Purists and Non-Purists? The highest score in the competition was 1125 points…

    I must have the wrong totals for each rider then for the whole race… My math(s) 🙂 score the team I proposed as getting only 880 points for the race, but you’re getting 1149 for it! :S

    Which really makes what electric did with his team team filthy cassette pro cycling pretty impressive… Meaning he only missed a perfect score by only 26 points! 🙂

    Christopher Froome
    Michael Rogers
    Tony Martin
    Gianni Meersman
    Michael Matthews
    Rohan Dennis
    David De La Cruz
    David Veilleux
    Nikias Arndt

    If he had put another 3.0 rider in there, Jean Marc Bideau, he would have gotten 12 points closer! 🙂 Still, I wonder how the hell he thought of putting Veilleux in there! :S

    Not taking away from the superb effort by electric, but it’s not that close to perfect, and enrique, neither is your math. (Aussies would normally object to the use of the word, but hey, anything to stir the Poms!!)

    I total your team to 1149 and trump it with

    Hang on. I though Maths was something you do and Math was once you’ve done it?

    So if you have a problem to solve, it would be Maths,

    If you solve the problem, you’ve used Maths to solve it, but when speaking about your working out, you talk about your MATH 😕

    Well, another bit of useless
    Well, another bit of useless trivia 🙂

    If my math is right this would have been the highest scoring Purist team possible:

    Christopher Froome
    Richie Porte
    Rohan Dennis
    Warren Barguil
    Kevin Seeldraeyers
    Gianni Meersman
    David Veilleux
    Thomas Damuseau
    Reinardt Janse Van Rensburg

    For a total of 880 points! Good enough to have come in No. 67 in the Overall Competition! With no transfers! 🙂

    And I have quietly hugged you for your that show of kindness… I feel a little lonely to lose your support, really, especially since I have no idea how I butchered the English language by using the word ‘math’ (mathematics?) :S Spanish is my native language and the English I learned I learned from Americans… I shall, however, accept my punishment, but not without first shouting “Long Live Non-Expiring Transfers for the Poor!” 🙂 Had to get that in…
