Gah, forgot!

I guess its too late to change Konovalovas to Vinokourov is it? For some reason I thought he was in this race.

 

[aarnold517]

I just realized every rider i predicted was at some point on t-mobile/high road/htc....the end is near

 

[Sasquatch]

Martin
Wiggins
Brajkovic
Boasson-Hagen
Zabriskie

lol I'm going to get the top 5 in probably not the correct order.

Here's hoping Wiggins finishes second to Martin.

Me too, sadly got Wiggins as winner instead of Martin.

 

[luckyboy]

Damnit Evans. 4 seconds faster and I would've got some more points.

Got 9 for Martin + Wiggins though.

 

[Tuarts]

Going to be some big scores now. 6 most popular picks finished in the top 6.

22 points to Jancouver, who's predictions I could only get 3/5 riders from.

 

[Merckx]

28 points on the day for me! Not a bad haul!

 

[Cobblestoned]

Wonder how I could doubt the Panzerwagen and trust in cuddles.
What a contrast and epic fail.

 

[Tuarts]

So here are the stage rankings:

A lot of people did really well. Big mentions go to Minessa (34), who only had Hagen + Brajkovic in the wrong order to get the big quinella. Sasquatch (31) got all 5 right as well and amazingly so did El Pisterlo (15) who unfortunately managed to get them all in the wrong order!

Now for the GC:

Minessa still on the attack after a great Giro, going "Bertie 2011" all over the rest of us. Eric still holds the Green jersey but his huge lead is no more, Cobblestoned retains the polka dot by virtue of having more points than the others.

It's a gift I tell you

 

[Eric8-A]

I think I got three out of five for today.

 

[The Hitch]

Me putting Janez below Vino was a wrong prediction, but because EBH took Vinos place, I get points.

Talk about fluke.

Closest ill ever get to the poker though.

 

[Tuarts]

Stage 6 is coming up, place your predictions please! Now's your chance if you had a bad day before to catch up on those who will inadvertently miss.

 

[Cobblestoned]

Dear Tuarts,......................................................................................

Still training in Uruguay. Will be back soon enough.

[Tuarts]

Teams for tonight:

 

[Cobblestoned]

Of course Brajko one of the first cracking.
And of course Purito wins instead of becoming 2nd this time.

Still hope to get some into Top5. cuddles struggling

 

[thrawn]

Got 1, 2 & 3 all in correct order woohoo!

 

[Ferminal]

thrawn gets the top3...

Lancaster and Myself the next best.

 

[Cobblestoned]

Got 1, 2 & 3 all in correct order woohoo!

Thats impressive. congrats !

If you leave out Brajko I did it, too. lol

 

[El Pistolero]

I think I'm the only guy that has Hermans up for the youth jersey. Sadly he was my second choice and Gesink my first.

 

[Tuarts]

Going to be awhile before I can access the results and put it all together, so you're going to have to doing it by manual arithmetic.

Oh and there's one more prediction that's not on that picture, of Armchair Cyclist. Not sure when exactly the race started (I'm not going to try and work out timestamps and timezones in this 15mins I got) but he put his predictions in soon after I posted, so I added them to my sheet. So people know what they were:

Rodriguez
Van den Broeck
S.Sanchez
Coppel
Evans

Sadly, it doesnt make a difference so you get your points

I think.

 

[Eric8-A]

3 out of 5 again

 

[El Pistolero]

I think.

Oh cool, didn't know that. He still needs to beat Coppel though which will probably not be possible.
