I'm never picking Farrar again.  14

Luckily it worked out this time, but I always expect him to mess it up some how.

Another podium badge :D. Also happy to see Hushovd up there - I was regretting putting him in my purist team after the first 2 stages.

You gotta be kidding me! Stuyven let me down big time! Your gonna beat me by 6 points on the stage after your penalty points I think.

I said no transfers till the TT but may have to bring in Farrar in for Stuyven tomorrow

Oops! Forgot to do me transfers, didn't I!?

Oh well. No Sagan but hopefully picked up a few points somewhere. Might bring cap'n bumfeeler in for tomorrow.

1,2,4 both teams, Matthews just needs to do that the next 2 days for my purist team and it may have a chance

I shouldn't have dropped Westra, but needed to to get Tejay in, so should be about even from Tejay and Deignans points. But he is in my purist team which is good. Need Matthews to do well today

Beyer in purists and Schleck in standard - with 3 more KOMs and a sprint to come - hoping they can stay out til the last 30km at least...

If you go onto steephill then click onto the tour of Cali it will give you a list of live / delayed coverage.

Click onto the Amgen site and it gives a running account of whats happening and a map of the stage. It states that they go live at 2pm PST which is about 10pm our time.

Brought Jones in for today and have got Mancebo and Schleck. Transferred Westra out though.

Thanks for the update Stumps. Anyone know what time live feed starts?
