No transfers for me today. Hoping the more obvious sprinters join in today!? 39
102 points just isn't good enough 2

I think you're probably right chiv, meersman crash was a bit of a setback for my purists today. Need a big day tomorrow and some luck on stage 4 methinks...

193, if I hadn't made my transfer this morning taking out Kristoff for Meersman I'd be sitting on 212 points and 9th on the stage 20

I think I got 207 points. Coquard, hofland, bouhanni and degenkolb are all in gc, points and yoof. I don't think that will be near top 10 for stage though. High scoring day.

I judged that it was essential to get Meersman into my team today, and used up some transfers that I really wanted to save to do so...... Well that's the way it goes sometimes, feeling pretty unhappy about the whole thing and then Hofland comes through to give me a 1-2-3 any way, so stop moaning you old soak!

Ups and downs Eh!

So I think 2,3,4,6,7 for both my teams...
Adding in GC bonuses another good day - and teammate bonus for van Emden in my purists...

So far it looks like ur pulling 35ish points a stage on me purist wise , however I do have Rui Costa and Chavanel as well as Gee for when it starts getting to the steep stuff ....stage four and five def look like possibly none of the sprinters are going to contest the stage ...I'm sure there is a climb on 4 that has gradients of 25 % 13

Hofland on fire at the moment, takes it from Degenkolb and Bouhanni. Multiple crashes make it difficult to tell what the GC standings will be, could be a while before they sort it all out. Meersman got paced back to the peloton by his team car, I think.

Possibly...
4 Kristoff
5 Hushovd
6 Coquard
7 Fonseca
8 Gallopin (who I dropped)

A crash in the peloton brings down Gianni Meersman (Omega Pharma-QuickStep), who has surely lost all chances of a stage win and the yellow jersey. Edvald Boasson Hagen (Sky), Lars Boom (Belkin) and Tyler Farrar (Garmin-Sharp) are also among those caught up in the crash.

More crashes, Meersman and Farrar won't be in the sprint today, and Meersman has missed out on the overall lead.

With the gap down to 1:35, Saramotins could wait no longer. The Latvian climbs out of the saddle and drops Delaplace. He will now try to fend off the peloton alone.

They are still out there, 70km gone and they have a lead of 9mins 05secs with Meersman taking the final 1 sec bonus after the first sprint.

Delaplace and Saramotins have 3 mins after 12km, if thats the break then it will be interesting to see if any GC guys chase the 1-sec bonuses in the intermediate sprints...
EDIT the second sprint is right near the end so the break may well have been caught by then...
