Paris Nice stage 6
I seem to have made a bit of a mess of my team 
Would have loved to have used tomorrows transfers today and not had any for tomorrow
So here goes
Porte
Peraud
Westra
Tejay
Talansky
Chavanel
Ulissi
Quintana
Hivert
In all honesty I wanted to axe Hivert but not have to axe Velits, but needed Porte in and so couldn't get enough credits to axe Hivert today with just 2 transfers. I will axe him and Qunitana for tomorrow, with two cheapish guys in mind

Ive just made 2 transfers, spilak for Quintana and Hivert replaced by my secret weapon
Did he fall though yesterday maybe feeeling the affects of that
I've got 1 transfer left and can't decide on him or 'shut up legs'?
I might have got 142, happy with that as no-one in the break (again)
134 - never was any good at working out the scores...
3 transfers for tomorrow - doubt I can afford who I want, but I'll have a look later. Maybe Menchov, but no GC points if he fails...
anyone think Coppel will try tomorrow? he finished way behind again
Who knows - I've not read anything to suggest he will, but on form he can climb and TT so maybe...
119 for me but -20 penalty so 99......
140 for me, I think. Mostly down to Bozic being in the break.
Correct i make it 140 for you
Whoever has the same team as ours but having taken a gamble on Tschopp will have won the stage
It was indeed 140. And another full house badge
Still can't get the podium badge though. Here's hoping for tomorrow
122 points for me I reckon

1st and 7th. Glad I couldn't afford to drop Bozic
I did drop Gallopin though 
only 1st and 9th but that will be better than most I reckon
Surprised how many sprinter type guys made it into that group.
Should be another full house for me including the winner
Chavanel....What a sprint
David Harmon "Kiryienka took a massive dump on the tarmac a couple of days ago". Could have been better phrased. Perhaps it's because they've just done the sprint in Tourrettes
LIKE
Just hoping Hivert will be at the finish
Result on the 1st category Col du Ferrier (Km 148.5)
1. Tschopp 10 points
2. Clarke 8 pts
3. Silin 6 pts
4. Bardet 4 pts
5. Jeannesson 3. pts
6. Vorganov 2 pts
7. Siutsov 1 pt
Once again 7,6,5,4,3,2,1 for our purposes
The peloton one minute adrift.
I took in Ulissi over Tschopp.....
Sylvain Chavanel
Gorka Izagirre
Tejay van Garderen
Richie Porte
Lieuwe Westra
Andrew Talansky
Bart de Clercq
Diego Ulissi
Arnold Jeannesson
Still got a couple of my stage 1 picks
Result on the 1st category Cote de Cabris (Km 138.5)
1. Tschopp 10 points
2. Jeannesson 8 pts
3. Bookwalter 6 pts
4. Bozic 4 pts
5. Silin 3 pts
6. Pineau 2 pts
7. Vorganov 1 pt
Obviously that'll count 7,6,5,4,3,2,1 for game purposes
Peloton 1:55 adrift.
More abandonment news. Renshaw has quit.
There goes my forum scorum lead thanks to De Gendt quitting, at least it was Gesink I dropped so I'm no worse off but that transfer was not my best judged ever.
Annoyingly I toyed with bring Jeannesson in this morning.
Oh well, its been a fun tour, its nice to get back to the proper racing.
I need Jeanneson to grab at least 1 point in the break and I "should" get a full house badge again today
De Gendt has also abandoned aswell
Van Summeren, Klier, Gesink, Offredo and Zeits have all abandoned.
