    Ok Guys!
    I’m 13th overall, don’t know how it happened, but so close to a high roller badge! Don’t know when this chance might happen again! I’m 10 points off and only got 2 transfers!
    I’m basically asking for your help!

    Current team:

    Froome
    Meersman
    Porte
    Barguil
    Janse Van Rensburg
    Veilleux
    Fairly
    Martin
    Pinotti

    Thinking of getting out Martin, and Pinotti, as only brought them in for TT, but doesn’t give me much money to work with!

    What do you guys think? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!

    Froome
    Valverde (for Martin)
    Barguil (for Chavanel)
    Porte
    Pinotti
    Elissonde
    Veilleux
    Barhane
    Fonseca

    Figured today suited Valverde more than the climbers like Rolland and Barguil was a cheap replacement for Chava to free up credits. Figured there was no-one else at the 10 credit mark worth replacing Pinotti with so left him in.

    Of the two, Van den Broek, but I wouldn’t choose either. I’m fancying Konig to do something today.

    mine was like that, but now says game being updated. I think something similar has happened before when scores were being edited. Hopefully will all be back to normal soon.

    Erm…my team has disappeared and I only have 2 transfers to fill the 9 empty slots. No riders available for selection either. Bug?

    My tip tomorrow is Fumi
    My tip tomorrow is Fumi Beppu, he’s a local rider, so is bound to be in the day’s break and pick up a barrel full of points.

    Also consider Geraint Thomas, he’s strong on these sorts of finishes.

    Definite top 3 on the stage tomorrow is Tony Martin, he’ll be wanting to repeat his stage victory from today, and clearly has a lot of form in his legs!

    Having already picked up both
    Having already picked up both badges I’ll be aiming for the a top ten overall at the end of the race rather than just trying to peak now.

    Its hard to get yourself in to a position where you have a chance of a top ten so it would be a tough call to maybe throw the chance of a top ten overall away for the sake of getting into the top ten now but handicapping yourself.

    That being said, in the grand scheme of things the 20 points you might lose from taking a penalty transfer now and again ahead of stage 6 might be worth it if you can bring in someone extra for Meersman, if you brought in Van den Broeck/Westra/De Gendt/Slagter/Taaramae and they finished top 5 then it might be worth it, its just balancing the possibility of it not paying off against the upside.

    At least with Meersman you know there’s pretty much no chance of him scoring tomorrow so you won’t lose out on any points he may get.
