Just looking at the Turkey tour and see that Hodeg finished 4th on stage 1, same time as Richeze, and 2nd on stage 2. Yet he is in 88th place on GC, 20 seconds down on everyone. Puzzled.

A faith worse than breaking the collarbone. It's such a terrible race. Even worse than Abu Dubai Tour.Max Rockatansky said:Dekker_Tifosi said:I think Moscon is simply past his peak now
Poor Moscon. Looks like he has to do China, too. For now he is on the startlist.

Probably a 10 second penalty for something

Ah, cheers.
CN at their best.Zinoviev Letter said:What a bizarre start list for Gran Piemonte.
If broken clocks can be right twice a day, CN can have an occasional lapse my friend .Tim Booth said:CN at their best.Zinoviev Letter said:What a bizarre start list for Gran Piemonte.
eg. Astana - 11 LUTSENKO Alexey, 12 BIZHIGITOV Zhandos, 13 FOMINYKH Daniil, 16 MOSER Moreno and 17 TLEUBAYEV Ruslan - 5 riders who are enjoying the Tour of Turkey at the moment.

mmm ... not really. Sonny COLBRELLI and Sacha MODOLO are probably the best of the riders that are supposedly there.Zinoviev Letter said:Does anyone have an accurate start list? Are there any actually good sprinters taking part?
Not a mod anymore, I can be critical, although I was never asked to sing a song. Mistakes happen. Kirby has a job. At least we get honest people, not perfect, giving news. Please reach out if you think you can contribute.Tim Booth said:for 'occasional' read 'frequent'Tonton said:CN can have an occasional lapse my friend .
Movistar Team - 5 more riders who will not be there
91 VALVERDE Alejandro, 92 CARAPAZ Richard, 93 LANDA Mikel, 96 SEPULVEDA Eduardo, 97 SOLER GIMENEZ Marc
if CN want to publish start lists they should at least try to be accurate. The list says
Updated: October 10, 2018 4:41pm
The Tour of Turkey started on October 9, so no excuse for Astana.
Movistar published their team on October 9, so no excuse there.

as the name suggests, this is not really about which teams they ride forRedheadDane said:Some more startlist talk.
I'm assuming the - somewhat odd - numbering for the Chrono des Nations is simply the starting order backwards.
And love how several of these riders are one-man teams.
