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.

1st, 2nd, 9th and 16th for me (Wiggins, Westra, Hesjedal and Mollema) Think Wiggo will take overall
1,2,3,8 in the overall for me too
Clement doing you proud Gkam
err 1st . . . and . . . not much else . . . apart from any mountain or sprint points . . .
I had to go out with 14km to go, so set the rest to record, but the commentators said Westra was out
Clement is doing my proud, i put him in because i knew he could TT a bit and i thought Rabo had a strong team so for bonus points and break aways
The commentators were told he as out by the race control computer, and when he crossed the line live, they were going im sure that looked like Westra and obvs was

What was Cav playing at, with them until the Cat 3 and he started to drop back a bit with Froome leading him up, they thought it would be a bunch sprint but he came in with Froome and Pate 11:17 down
Pate got last place
It was Menchov and Lagutin who pulled out
I stick to the old pen and paper when making my plans (then I loose half of them and pick the wrong team)
Ok, just watched the last 15 km, WTF, all the climbers making sprinting look easy, Wiggo getting tips from Cav lately???
Also seems there is no points classification< so it will be mountain and sprint points
I wish there was a like button
Great sprint by Wiggins, couldn't believe it when I saw it; shows what time bonuses can do.
Ist and 4th and Talansky is doing ok as well. Top young rider and 5th in GC. Got a couple just outside the top 10 but tomorrow is a bit of an uphill finish so there'll be some changes. Thought about Westra but thought he was a bit knackered as well.
We are playing young rider, aren't we?
If he gets to the finish. Two cat 2s and a cat 3.
But I biased my team towards TT riders, van Garderen, LL Sanchez, de Gendt but I think they all went late. They should go better on the long one at the end though.
But the scores might be a bit Amstelish
You had Navardauskas 17th - 4 points, Froome for Sky - 5 points and Clement 8th - 14 points and 3 for GC
Interesting - I wonder if he gets the choice? Or does it depend on the jersey/race? I thought I remembered that a World Champ took yellow in the Tour recently (which must have been Evans) and wore yellow rather than the Rainbow Bands. Given the choice, I can see why he'd pick yellow, and why Cav would pick the WC jersey here...
Rolland
Cobo
LL Sanchez
Roy
Astarloza
Malacarne
Hivert
Navardauskas
Castroviejo
Was the team i had saved in my little cycling DB of teams, which involved all my working out, a .txt file for each race with my riders i'm picking between with potential transfers all stored in a folder along with a .html of all the riders
Damn, Tiralongo coming in 3rd, he was another of my guys, but i though he'll just be warming up before he jumped into my team for Giro
I say, just make up the points class, today is as follows
Pierre Rolland = 50
Juan Jose Cobo = 50
Luis Leon Sanchez = 50
Christopher Froome = 50
Mikel Astarloza = 50
Davide Malacarne = 50
Jonathan Hivert = 50
Ramunas Navardauskas = 50
Stef Clement = 50
