Giro D'Italia - Stage 1
Woo! First grand tour of the year is here! Should be exciting with the new transfer rules!
Went out and had a great ride this morning with lots of climbs as a little tribute to the climbing these guys will be putting in over the next few weeks!

What a disappointing opener from Sky.
Dave is just about to tell all the teams that they have to do it again today due to a server error. I suspect they will be better second time around
Boaro is 7th on GC, 18+4
Gerrans 1st on GC 20+10
Matthews is 2nd on GC and 1st on YR GC so 20+9+5
ahhh - thanks for clearing that up!
I'm confused by the scoring for the TTT. Michael Matthews (OGE) has been given 34 points, but his teammate Simon Gerrans has 30. I thought Gerrans crossed the line first, and is the GC leader?
I was expecting to see 20 points for each OGE team member, with Gerrans getting 10 pts for GC lead...but not sure how Matthews has scored 34, or Boaro 22
Ivan Basso did not scored and made part of the same team.
edit: Thanks who ever changed it
It doesn't matter where they finish in team time trail scoring, they played their part in getting the team to the finish and score the same as every member of the team
Why did Tosatto scored 18 points? He did not end with the team.
Umm why did sam bewley not score and points?
Edit: Thanks who ever changed it

Boom Gerrans!
Hate it when I submit a purist team day before then one of the riders is withdrawn before the start
Think i'll keep my teams to myself for a while!
If you look at the transfers page, there's still 40 mins to the deadline. Not that anyone can pick a team though.
Seems i was a bit keen
Ok, so just realised the deadline hasn't passed yet, so wont be posting my teams yet
