    Stumps

    I know its not till Sunday but i might as wll get the ball rolling.

    Described as a medium mountain stage its seems to fit the bill perfectly for Sagan however when you look at each lap of the course the first climb is about 4.5kms with a max gradient of 9% followed by a downhill section.

    The sting in the tail is the little burst just 6kms before the end which is only 600 metres but rises to 16% then its downhill the whole way bar a 100m lump 2.5k from the end.

    If someone gets away on the last 600m rise then its going to be hard bringing them back again.

    So why is it again that a budget for this race can say 150.8 credits? I’m getting messages that I’m overbudget, but the balance is 0… It feels weird… Why does this happen again? :/

    Anyone else I should be aware of?

    Barta changed when he changed to UCI, not sure how much by, think he went from 6 to 7, as I remember trying to toss up between him and Nordhaug

    Pity Offredo isn’t racing then – my one useless fact about him is that he likes riding in the rain!

    Dave, There are still issues with rider values – my purist team at the moment is within budget but when I try and remove non-runner JTL and substitute him with any other 3.0 value rider I get a message saying ‘team over budget’ and I’m unable to save it :”(
