Tour de Romandie

Right to give everyone time to plan, the tour de romandie takes place after the last classics race from 24th to 29th april.

Profiles and startlist (provisional) are up on cycling fever.

Should be good as some Giro participlants will probably be getting a run out.

If people could just let me know if they are gonna be putting in a team so i can prepare the spreadsheet.

Lucas was interested in which riders scored the most points overall, to see who was the best rider, and was there anyone who scored highly that non of us picked. so if i can im gonna try and keep scores for all riders that take part (however it my be too time consuming but i will try)

If you're new please join in and if you have questions pop them below and the forum regulars will answer as best we can.

You think? On that course i think Sanchez will have the upper hand. If not the Mollema and Clement are pretty handy aswell

My ideal would be Sanchez to win the TT and GC with Clement second in both  19

I don't mind if Wiggins or Sanchez wins as I've got both  3  3

Talansky will want to win the young rider jersey as well and de Gendt can be handy on an uphill TT and he's scored me a big fat 0 so far so I hope he does something. Zabriskie ok in a TT as well but what happened to van Garderen, he seems to have disappeared. Was banking on him for a good finish.

Think I Have it, although you had talansky 2nd I had 6th and 7th through Szmyd and Rogers, and then think Spilak was 11th, so you may beat me on the day but not 44 points difference

I didn't think Westra would be up for this one and Wiggins was tooooo common amongst the teams posted already, so with this not counting towards the game, i took a chance with some other riders. This is the third time i've done that, first time worked a treat and i won, second time not so much and i came last.......still a few stages left  3
