Added Talansky and
Added Talansky and Castroviejo for two sprinters for this stage. Suspect most of the guys are gubbed and unless they think they can win or are riding for GC they won’t destroy themselves over 37km. GC heavy might be good.
Only three transfers left, but that should be OK. Castroviejo goes for tomorrow and the last two transfers will give me three sprinters for Madrid.
I have Drucker, Meersman and
I have Drucker, Meersman and Arndt for today, plus the usual jersey points.
5 transfer left for the three stages to come. Where is the best bang for your buck, ITT, Summit or the stage to Madrid?
Don’t have Yates any more.
Don’t have Yates any more. You have me worried now!
Got 4 of the riders you ask the question of though.
Think Fraile might be a couple of points short on today’s scoring. Scored as 4. 2nd in KoM overall and first over the first climb today.
PS Thanks for doing the scoring. Really enjoying the Vuelta.
I decided to go for three
I decided to go for three sprinters. You chose better than me. Went Drucker, Meersman and Cort. Last one didn’t work out well.
Not managed to focus sufficiently on ToB and I am not getting much out of that at the moment.
Me too. Yates in for a maybe
Me too. Yates in for a maybe ‘sick’ Valverde
It would be like arguing with me when I was 12.Have you changed since then?

I did bring Meersman in, but that looks a waste now. My team doesn’t need too much of an overhaul for tomorrow with 3 GC and 2 KOM contenders in it today.
Interesting only four riders
Interesting only four riders cross over in our teams today.
Fraile, Geniez, Valverde and LL Sanchez
Sitting with 19 transfers now after just two changes today. Left in GC riders for the ‘guaranteed’ points as breakaways are hard to predict on a stage like this.
Don’t think I will have a big day, but hoping not to have a shocker either.
I went Frank and Gesink for
I went Frank and Gesink for Meersman and Hermans. Didn’t get any return on those transfers.
1,2,3,4 on the stage, but I suspect many will have the podium.
Dombrowski in the break!
Dombrowski in the break!
Dropped Chaves for Quintana.
Dropped Chaves for Quintana. Lost faith in Dombrowski and he has gone for me. Been struggling with the De Gendt cost too. It has to be a GC battle today, doesn’t it?
I was pleased that I
I was pleased that I correctly backed the breakaway option with my team. Less pleased that I didn’t identify any riders that were actually in the breakaway.
I thought I might be in the
I thought I might be in the minority making no transfers, but maybe it was the common approach. Only making one for tomorrow too.
Gone for it today as it might
Gone for it today as it might be more predictable than some stages?
Similar team though Sabragli and Battaglin for Valverde and Kennaugh.
Same here, but I can’t get onto the Olympic site and form a team…That is because in the UK time zone it ain’t evening yet
