    I guess 2,3,5,8,10,13,14 will be solid, my only non-scorer will be LL Sanchez. In hindsight going Konig over Uran and keeping Horner like Chris did would have been the best combo. So he could win the stage in my opinion.

    I needed the last 2 days to be more standard sprint stages really – as it was I didn’t gain much of an advantage over people who kept more GC guys in. (In fact, thats exactly what happened in the TDF – I should probably have learnt from that…)

    Anyway, used all my transfers this morning (7) to get the below – boring but hopefully effective. Being able to bank transfers is DEFINITELY an advantage in races like this (and well worth the tenner) but I’ve abjectly failed to take advantage so far đŸ˜‰

    Valverde
    Nibali
    Roche
    Moreno
    Horner
    Pozzovivo
    Konig
    Basso
    Zubeldia

    2 probable transfers lined up for tomorrow (no prizes for guessing one of them)…
