Tour of Britain Stage 5

It's Devon time - I'll be up on Haytor watching the race then going down to the finish in Exeter.

I think a breakaway will stick today so just brought GC people in.

Roche, Ion, King Leopold, Teuns, Zardini, Peters, McLay, Chava, Kwia.

Enjoy people

Fantastic day. Good atmosphere up on Haytor. Nice at the finish, though whoever decided that Heroes by David Bowie needed to be covered in that way deserves shooting.

I saw Brandle win his cheese.

Only downer of the whole day was I took Colbrelli and Swifty out this morning, I was expecting at least 10 in the break

9 changes for me, as it is the first team i have managed to pick for the TOB so far.
Quickly chucked it together on the train, so probably rubbish!

Kwiatkowski
Farra
Teuns
Mclay
Peters
Haussler
Bennet
Markus

You lot have been lucky with Teuns so far. He is now in my team so that's where he abandons.

Michal Kwiatkowski (OPQ)
Sylvain Chavanel (IAM)
Leopold Konig (TNE)
Ben Swift (SKY)
Dylan Teuns (BMC)
Jerome Pineau (IAM)
Mark McNally (ACR)
Tao Geoghegan-Hart (TGB)
Ion Izaguirre (MOV)

Chava has flattered to deceive yet again, Swifty says he is up for this one and has suggested Pineau may be too.

Enjoy! I came 6th yesterday so have just made the one change today, bringing in McNally for Handley. Picking Handley initially worked out well but he's too high up on GC to be getting in breaks anymore I think. Had Teuns in since the beginning but still can't remember why I picked him - pretty sure I've never heard of him before!

Kwiatkowski
Teuns
Izagirre
Roche
Chavanel
Swifty
McNally
Geoghegan-Hart
Boaro
