Eldron Posted July 17, 2018 Posted July 17, 2018 Bernal was 16 mins behind the white jersey leader after stage 9. Today he’s 8 mins behind - better climbers (yes), but with plenty mountains stages to come, I expect that gap will come down quickly and he’ll start bring in some points for the 220-odd that picked him.

Baldrick Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 A grand total of 30 points for yesterdays stage The downward trend continues
SwissVan Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 Time for NQ to engage the big ring and earn his keep
bertusras Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 A grand total of 30 points for yesterdays stage The downward trend continues That's pretty decent, I managed to scrape together a meager 15! Meanwhile GVA is on the bench with 104! Shebeen and Vetplant 2
Gen Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 He smashed the wannabes but lost time to Letour... I left him on my bench it was one of those.. aah he hurt himself and will be on Froome duty, I will check the news later and see if I should bring him off the bench...... and as things went on Monday, I forgot to check the news and updates.. SO technically my NO SKY NO BMC policy still stands He is super strong so will probably end up getting the white jersey by default.

I thought he might have it after the TTT and definitely after yesterday. Ah well. He did crack right at the end yesterday and perhaps the combo of his Froome service, Latours form and those lost cobble minutes might be enough to ruin my carefully crafted plan. Alas the course is set :-) Edited July 18, 2018 by Eldron Gen 1
TALUS Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 (edited) Well I moved Latour and GvA to the bench. I have conclusively proved that I should stick to my day (and night) job. Edited July 18, 2018 by TALUS Patchelicious, Eldron and Matt 3
CatchMeIfYouCan Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 A stiff drink for me tonight in celebration that GVA finally gets 0 points for the day OneLove and Zatopek 2
CASSIE1975 Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 Looks like a small improvement for me today...hope to change upwards and not in a downwards spiral like the last 10 stages well at least upwards for one day I hope...
Vetplant Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 After today I should finally start pulling back those sprinter-heavy teams. Go G! Take it to Paris!
@grootlem Posted July 18, 2018 Posted July 18, 2018 By refusing to have a Sky rider in my team I will never win this thing. Down to 4th place now, it was fun wearing yellow for a few days ) TALUS, Gen and Vetplant 3
Baldrick Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 Valverde se... didn’t deserve that...He looked rather embarrassed to receive it
