ProTour Punditry Predictions

TT stage: some chauvinisme (and a lot of cohones, since he is MIA since a long time)... De Gendt

Wasn't that far off... especially since he needed to switch bikes during the TT and he did have worse weather then the GC people who started later (although he could perhaps only have ended around Evans' time anyway)

but I guess we don't get sympathy points for being closest?

Nope!
I said upthread that Uran was an unknown quantity but I had no idea he'd perform as well as he did.

How about a bonus points stage on Tuesday? The stage starts with the Gava after 5km and then they have the Stelvio at 50km, and a mountain top finish thrown in for good measure. It should be a hard 139km of racing.

Pick 5 riders and then 5,4,3,2,1 points?
Total points available on the stage would 15 if you get all 5 correct? But still 1 point if you only manage to pick 5th.

Stage 16: Duarte

Evans to be the first to hit an annoying fan

Smutch is away, so you won't get an answer in time.

Thank God for that - I find it arduous enough picking the day's winner ( or not as is far more likely)
