    Well as Im off out to play golf, then go to work, then play football, I thought id start this thread early.

    So Ive taken a 10 point hit, but would like 5 riders in the top 10, with maybe Valverde and Chertnetsky in top 20. Plus should be in ok shape for tomorrow

    Valverde
    Martin
    Kwiatkowski
    Porte
    Clement
    Pinotti
    Chertnetsky
    Fonseca
    Barhane

    Why the last 2 messages?
    Why the last 2 messages? Well, I didn’t pick Westra and Dennis was my 10 pt penalty. Have I finally made a good choice or will it all go pear shaped again and spoil it for everyone who made the same picks 😕

    Apparently. Rohan Dennis followed Jack Bauer in the team car. Interesting omens?

    I think this is where the
    I think this is where the race begins to be honest(in real-life terms anyway!!)

    When I picked my standard team I basically picked a TT team and worked backwards into a stage 1 team(if that makes snese) so with a transfer saved I have:

    Froome(GC lead tonight methinks!!)
    Kwiatkowski(my man!!)
    Veilleux(heard he’s not bad on the aero’s)
    Fonseca(probably my only non-scorer today)
    Martin(how can you not!!)
    Dennis(he or kwia in white tonight)
    Fuglsang(long term goodies and top 20 today no problem)
    Pinotti(bargain!!)
    Clement(overlooked by many?)

    Martin,Pinotti and Clement to come out tomorrow

    I wouldn’t be surprised by a sky/opqs top 5 on today’s ITT what with Froome,Porte,Thomas,Martin,Kwiatkowski and Chavanel and maybe even Kennaugh all able to excel?

    Contador the unknown and I think we may see a few markers for Le Grand Boucle today?

    I was torn between Chavanel and Westra…

    Your team looks really nice! 🙂 All you probably have to do tomorrow is switch of Martin and Chavanel! 🙂

    Hope you’re wrong there! ‘Cause he’s someone you wouldn’t have to switch off for tomorrow! ;)

    and probably Pinotti but at 8 creds or so I’ve got him too.

    Days.

    My team:

    Froome
    Martin
    Chavanel
    Porte
    Elissonde
    Pinotti
    Veilliux
    Barhane
    Fonseca

    Took the opportunity to bring in some cheaper guys so I can switch my team around after today. Froome/Martin/Chava for the podium today plus Porte top 5. Can’t see Kwiatkowski doing as well as people think, he’s still young and this TT is all about technique and experience.

    not sure why youve gone valverde over froome at same cost, quite likely froome will be in yellow after today and valverde may not be in top 10! but you might have been transfer constrained…

    I already had Valverde, and didn’t want to take him out for a penalty transfer, with tomorrow in mind. Yes I may lose out, but Valverde has been TTing better this year
