98 points on a sprint stage and came 34th. Come on people, you can do better than that!

Also I think plenty will have made at least 2 penalties

Do you think many sprinters will make it over the high mts on Fri. I am bankin on the climbers getting away and staying away, with maybe only one or two breakaways winning the stage.

Friday? isn't that the ITT? If you mean thursday I I thin Sagan will win it, Swift and Degenkolb should make it, and a decent form Kristoff may too, someone like a Bennati could figure too, Mollema has a decent sprint for a climber, maybe Albasini, or Rui Costa

Damn, 2nd on the stage today! No buff for me.

Unlucky, ive only had 1 stage win this year, you will get one soon enough.

I got 63 in the end so could have been worse. All set though now until the TT. And I think I have a decntish plan in mind, so that I only need the odd penalty for stage 8. (the problem being who to pick for 8 and 9, Mollema my only dead cert), think he will win the overall

Thinking with my team defo Sagan and Swift, Degenkolb should and poss Kristoff can be at the finish for stage 6, but I don't think Cav will and maybe not Labato, so hoping thats where my team pays off. Also think Shurter will do well that stage too.

Having Thurau in for mountains is working well too.

Here they are

What were they doing back there? Did they go for the sprint first time round or can't they count to two?
