    Looks like we’re climbing again. 
     

    Just never got to grips with Tirreno Adriatico somehow…onwards and upwards for this one.

    should have kept quiet, i thought that was a masterstroke! I considered not putting in Dennis to save changes, would not have thought Yates would do so well however…

    Porte never feels like a safe

    Porte never feels like a safe pick though. I made the rookie mistake of starting with two Ineos riders in Yates and Porte…leaving no room for Dennis. I could have corrected it but would have taken an in and back out pair of transfers. I’ll count myself lucky that both Porte and Yates delivered good pts today. I won’t make that mistake again.

    My mistake was Carthy instead of Porte – I just wasn’t sure where Porte stands in the pecking order for Ineos and whether he might take it easy today…… Ah well

    Got Haga in instead of Sanchez, He made the money easier for tomorrow. A few pts would be nice…obviously not in the mix though…

    Carthy did alright, but can’t remember where he placed exactly. Catalunya website hasn’t upated anything yet and I’m not going off PCS until they’re verified.

    I can’t find Haga listed as a DNS or DNF. Very odd. Been busy so missed most of it. 
     

    I risked no Dennis but got the next six. Kamna let me down and Haga not showing.

    And Hugh Carthy!

    And Hugh Carthy! Looks like some times failed to be recorded – there seemed to be issues with the live standings all afternoon. Only 133 finishers listed so far. I’m sure they all finished unless there is a huge TT grupetto still on course!

    Some years Catalunya has a

    Some years Catalunya has a nice pattern where you can progressively remove 1-2 riders a day in climbing skill order.  This is not one of those years.  After a shocker yesterday, and an incongruous TT today, I’m looking forward to tomorrow.

    That was lucky

    Went full climber in the purist plus LLS. Went TT and climbers in standard with Smith Sagan and Venturini for variety.

    I remember them doing it up

    I remember them doing it up the Tourmalet at the Tour a couple of years ago with similar results. It was baffling – I can only think that Valverde said he fancied it and they wanted anybody resembling a sprinter distanced! That bit worked but the rest quite clearly didn’t!
