Nice work at that first post but I find your sorting order a bit odd (wins go over jerseys ?) for the tour I'll sort it on points gained. I'm wondering who received the most points in the giro. I think it's you, and i come in second.

Super Tour and Gabillet is still in super form : Vattenfall was sort of a piece of cake for him? Sadly enough I messed up his contract afterwards, I sure hope I don't have to sell him now.

What a relief things with Gabillet got fixed before the update. Congratulations to Hawaiin Cycles, only started a few weeks ago and already winning his first tour, his home tour. Great Job. Ofcourse Bosisdatter only came 3 seconds short, So I am a bit disappointed. But on the plus side my newest addition Knoren beats Brancart in an uphill finish, the Vuelta will get very intersting .

jup after seeing todays race I thought: nice, brancart can keep up with all those riding at 100% while he's only going 75%.... then I saw Knoren... and I was a little scared! :-p
So looking at your setup for the vuelta: Gabillet has a 3 on mountain?, and is your best rider being trained at flat from day 1
knoren and levanto are 2 weeks older than my guys and got trained by a 15/16 mountain trainer till last week/2weeks ago.
Ghershon and Sibell are your TT guys
you win :-p

Only one raced and it is already clear , only one real opponent for my team in the Vuelta : The maen with the Straw Hats ... and by taking a 1.2.3 in a flat stage he already has a clear edge on me. The rest is already on 2:39, but besides The Divine Bikers nobody was full on the required 85% so maybe some surprises will follow.

I don't know why i won... They are bad flat cyclist! (top 3, flat stats: 1-2-2)
i guess we had a breakaway at the early mountain :-) i only have 1 flat guy(the pizza baker) and he lost time(he rode at 70%, he wasnt completely fit) this tour it'll be a little harder to get the stats(there are other tours inbetween) but i'll give it my best ;-) go go brancart!

I know what you mean Sibbel wasn't on full force to because he has to lead the guys in Plouay to. Don't see that happening in real cycling ... hey it is a rest day here in the Vuelta, let's fly to Plouay and back to race there ;D I think the downhill finish suited you better , looks like my man are pretty week on that terrain.

my predictions were correct! My guys (brancart, brillant, hohner and jochmans) will have some good chats with your knoren and levanto at the front of the pack. I guess it'll be those 6 who finish first at every climb ;-)

knoren is really fighting hard! winning in a breakaway of 4... I'll give my guys a lecture about teamwork... how on earth is it possible? they had a lead of 1 minute and they couldnt finish the job! judging how he won the last 2 stages and finished 8th in the first he doesnt have a good flat skill. I'm also afraid of gabillet, OK he's 3 minutes behind, but he'll make it up in the flat stages!

Gabillet won't be a problem for you, not enough flat to make a difference. And now that Levanto lost 10:30 in a fall , my hopes for the timejersey are very low. Knoren chances of winning the overall are much slimmer. It will be for one of your guys probably.

Still 8 stages to go! A lot can happen. Levanto must've fallen at the start. He had a lonely race today! But he can focus on protecting his green jersey now. Too bad you started with gabillet for the mountain jersey, knoren is doing a lot better now.

Thanks for keeping the score, but on points you will win this one for sure.
Bad luck in the update, Lemal current Green jersey in Pologne got injured on training, he would have had a hard time in the last stage against Perio but this way I lose it for sure. De Jesus didn't take enough time today, so I probably lose the yellow too and because the polka dot will be decided mainly in the last stage, I might end up with only 2 stage victories there.

... so I probably lose the yellow too and because the polka dot will be decided mainly in the last stage, I might end up with only 2 stage victories there. listen to nr. 31 worldwide complaining about getting 2stage wins out of 3 ;D btw Sibell is a TT beast ok he rode at 100%, but so did Winne. leaving all the 70% guys at 1:40 in a 33km stage... in km/h: Sibell: 55,23 Winne: 54,30 Dauvergne: 52,73 I think he would've been second at 70% 1. Adalbert Gabillet 814 2. Hendri Brancart 766 3. Roderik Manussen 513 I guess Brancart will hop to 1st place... considering he's 3rd in yellow jersey, 2nd in points and 1st in mountain ;-)
