[inquote=drheaton]Managed to cobble together a spreadsheet that's worked out the scores, top three are:

JAndrewHill - 100
taustin789 - 60
Mikeh789 - 55

with lots and lots of people hovering between 40 and 50 points.[/quote]
I Feel a bit like Manuele Boaro, sprinting away on the first climb, but I doubt I will hang on til the finish.

...The combination of Nibali, Santambrogio and Battaglin clearly coming out on top at this stage.

Well, I guess whoever's got Nibali, and a mix of Viviani, Paolini or Pirazzi must be doing well !

Andrew, you just never know!

Anyway, good luck to all and thanks to the organisers for getting this up and running.

Battaglin would be right up there too!!

I expect the Nibali,Santambrogio and maybe even Caruso to come to the fore soon.

Or 3 Yankees for Cali?

Don't know, this is getting the point where it'll take me ages to do the scores, think I'll just save it for the Tour and Vuelta.

You want me do them on a spreadsheet? just for the individual riders then can work out which combo has won on the last day?
