    When I did the calculations. It came up with 136….I was going to set it at 135…so you already have 5 extra points =P~

    Because there are two different jerseys and not a combined points in the TdS that is why I’m scoring the sprints, otherwise it is just rewarding those home first ever day. They already get rewarded.

    The Tour will have points, mountains and youth classifications.

    Finish line points are not counted in the stage scoring although they do count towards the actual 1st to 5th place points in the classifications as above ie 5 points for the top rider in the standings at the end of the stage.

    No….Finish line points won’t be counted and it will be the intermediate sprints and the sprints jersey that will be scored

    This will be your scoring
    This will be your scoring notes

    Finish line points
    35, 30, 25, 22, 20, 18, 16, 14, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1
    KOM points
    The number of scoring riders on a KOM climb is the maximum number of points available. So if five riders score, the first rider will receive 5 points down to 1 point for the fifth rider
    Sprint points
    6, 4, 2 points for the first three riders on any intermediate sprint
    Sprints jersey
    The sprints jersey competition overall will be scored as the points competition jersey.

    There is no youth rider cat.
    There is no youth rider cat. I have removed it

    Points will be based on intermediate sprints and NOT on finish line points. I forgot to put the scoring information in, so I’ve asked Dave if he can stick it in for me. Sorry about that.

    So basically, there will be no points for sprints on the first stage as it is an ITT

    I can’t find last years results on the official site, so not 100% sure there was a combat award either, but leaving it in to be on the safe side. If they decide to score a young riders this year. I will add that back in. As they have no scoring information or jerseys listed on their site. Lets assume it hasn’t changed.

    That is NOT the startlist,
    That is NOT the startlist, that is what pro cycling thinks is going to be the startlist apart from Sky which has a green tick.

    I shall be sticking with this http://www.tourdesuisse.ch/fileadmin/user_upload/News/Fahrerliste__Teams_TdS_2014.pdf

    Until such times as they release the final startlist. That is their provisional list released on 3rd June

    That is just how it works
    That is just how it works Tjuice and then you can remove it totally.

    It is not a bad price just now, considering what you would pay to get a small bike with stabilisers or a balance bike and then a bigger bike once they can pedal properly.

    The 150 was slightly tougher
    The 150 was slightly tougher on the French team.

    GLT?? What is that when it is at home?

    Boardman bikes were always built to a price. Nothing wrong with that especially when the cycle to work schemes set a price. It’s made the £500 – £1000 bike market very competitive.

    I always thought it was a mistake being exclusively bound to Halfords. Good for Halfords though. Gives them a shot at credibility.

    Good for Chris B. I hope he made a few bob. I wonder what he’ll be up to next?

    They were never exclusively bound to Halfords. I suspect they will be now though. Downhill slope

    You’re making me think about your team… 😕 That must (!) mean you don’t have Froome or Kwiatkowski or Hesjedal or Porte or Nibali or Spilak or Konig or Yates or Kelderman or Thomas or Nizzolo or Impey or Demare or Gerrans or Fuglsang on any of your teams , but then you must have Chavanel, Peraud, Simon, Vichot and, of course, Voeckler, on your French team and you must have Contador, Moreno, Anton, Navarro, Lopez, and Zubeldia on your Spanish team…

    No Chavanel, Simon, Vichot or Voeckler for the French team
    No Lopez, Anton, Navarro or Zubeldia in the Spanish team

    So, are you going to play them both Purist? And, if you had to take a wild guess, which one do you think will do better? I think your French team will do better on Stage 1 and, of course, your Spanish team will do great (!) in the mountains… So, if you play Purist your Spanish team should kick your French team’s ass ! 🙂

    Spain should beat France I would think. Both are being played as purist, much the same as I did with the Giro teams. I have lost all interest in mens pro cycling and I am exploring other options for 2015.

    They will just kill the brand
    They will just kill the brand and make it another Apollo style bike.

    I guess they will cut ties with other outlets like Wiggle and small bike shops that stock Boardmans

    Great idea, It has me
    Great idea, It has me thinking now. Could I get a 16″ control hub and lace it into a folding bike. Thus giving me the ability to travel with a bike and actually be able to ride short distances without having to rely on taking my recumbent everywhere.

    OR if I could lace a 700c wheel together with some adjustment to the hub to take small spokes…. :B
