C-Shore

Haven't even finished mine but I'm in!

dastardly00

The Mighty Quin-tanas have entered!

Inquitus

Henao, Henao!

retalivity

I have returned after a winter hiatus to try and better my bottom ten finish from the Vuelta!

C-Shore

Am I right in saying that the sprint points in the Giro are equal across every day regardless of if it's a mountain stage?

Inquitus

Ok how many of us had Dan in the team? Desperate for him, he brought such good form into the Giro and with only one short ITT, I really believe he would have shown very well in the GC here, a better parcours for him in a GC we may not see for a while.

Dr. Bre

I think most had him ye. wish I had roche instead now ha!

C-Shore

I didn't pick him, or anyone Irish for that matter!

Turncoat I am!

gordongekko

I had him in Roche out and Roche in Dan out about 20 times. At the last minute I changed again and put Dan back in.

Dr. Bre

I didn't pick

kittel

Janey mac I'm having a cracking start to this giro!

stecleary

Team = falling apart!
I'm backing England for the world cup .

retalivity

3 riders have dropped out so far, and I had 2 of them. 2 that I had hoped to score big with as well.

I now have no other sprinters so am screwed in the flat stages unless its breakaways all day

Darkglasses

I still have Swifty, thank god...

Pudsy33

Martin and Kittel gone for me. Hopefully Mezgec wins something but their lead out train has been **** even for Kittel. Pozzovivo, Nico and Uran need to get me some point in the hills or I'm ****ed.

manafana

to be fair to kittel buyers he was never going put himself through the mountains next week.

Dr. Bre

up to 2nd in boardsie league. helps when ya have the stage winner!

MPFG

I had Dan Martin & Marcel Kittle ...seems my jinx is very strong

I have Uran, Swift, Pozzovivo, Majka, Ulissi,Zoidl, Appollonio , Aru among others ....left for points

retalivity

Now purito is gone too...

Lol I quit

Darkglasses

Yeah, I don't think anyone can match ba at this stage, unless Quintana wins the pink jersey soon and carries it all the way to Trieste. Great selection in fairness

retalivity

If hubert dupont wins every stage between now and trieste I may have a chance...

dastardly00

Nicolas Roche - GC hopes over
Daniel Martin
Nairo Quintana - has yet to come to the fore
Rafal Majka - doing good so far
Marcel Kittel
Enrico Battaglin - hasn't scored any points so far
Nathan Haas - 9th last in GC
Ivan Santaromita - doing good so far. Won TTT and came 5th in Stage 6.
Roberto Ferrari - has finished 4th, 5th, and 7th in the sprint stages so far.

I'm 10th in the Boards league so I'm happy with that!

Darkglasses

I am edging a bit close to absolute last

martin.mcevoy

After a promising start I'm having an absolute nightmare!!

Dr. Bre

2nd in boards league going into rest day. Weening has been good for me

Darkglasses

I can't believe how badly my team is doing. So many complete flops

MPFG

I have 5 of the top 7 riders on GC but I would swap them all if Dan were still in race and Nico were in form

No wonder I'm doing so ****e if the cyclists you picked are only going into their second rest day. The lazy b*stards I picked are onto number 3! :mad:

Squeezed into the top 20 and won two stage days so I'm happy enough.

I came 4th ..... but would have preferred an Irish stage win

Darkglasses

I came 53rd and I don't want to talk about it anymore :pac:

NeedMoreGears

23rd. Basically Quintana and Uran with support from Viviani and De Gendt and bit from Nico.
