@RedheadDane , @yaco ,@Põhja Konn , @Libertine Seguros , @Gwbert , @Jumbo Visma Fan :) , @jaylew , @Dk one , the full start list for Burgos is available now:

https://firstcycling.com/race.php?r=10428&y=2022&k=8

Don't forget that it's a stage race, so you have the chance to pick a stage huntress as well

 

[RedheadDane]

I'm afraid my lead is gonna drop now.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Vollering and Labous for Burgos.

[Dk one]

Vollering, Cavalli. Kopecky for stage.

 

[yaco]

Vollering and Ludwig - Stage Huntress is Grace Brown.

 

[Põhja Konn]

Burgos: Vollering and Rooijakkers, stage huntress Kopecky

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Stage huntress will be Kopecky.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Going with Pauliena Rooijakkers for the GC and Emma Norsgaard for stage huntress.

Obvious Demi pick is obvious.

 

[Gwbert]

Vollering & Fisher-Black with Grace Brown for stages

 

[Dk one]

Ehh, on the CN main page they say that Vollering will make a decision tomorrow morning whether she will start or not, was kept in hospital overnight. Sd worx said she was fine earlier today, life as a predicter is hard, yo! Are we allowed to pick a reserve now in case she doesn’t start? @Samu Cuenca

Yeah, that seems quite fair.

 

[Dk one]

Yeah, that seems quite fair.

Great. I will go with Vollering (Moolman-Pasio as reserve), Cavalli. Stage Kopecky.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Reserve-Moolman-Pasio for me.

 

[yaco]

Reserve Moolman-Pasio.

 

[Libertine Seguros]

Reserve Cille, just to be different. I think Ash is the smart choice, but I'm gonna gamble if Demi can't make it.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

SD Worx has confirmed Vollering's participation and instead it's Moolman-Pasio who won't start the race. A shame for her, but at least it means none of our teams will be affected.

[Samu Cuenca]

I'm going with Vollering and Faulkner as GC picks and Chabbey as my stage huntress.

@jaylew , you still have time to pick your riders.

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

Any standings after Burgos, or waiting for next event?

I will probably do an update tomorrow.

Someone from GCN has apparently confirmed there will be live coverage of the Women's Tour, but it hasn't been made official yet. Still I might add Tour de Suisse to the calendar anyway, both because Ilike the route, but also because I need more races to keep the hope of victory alive

Maybe... if the rest of us don't make any more predictions for the rest of the year...

I mean Jaylew and Gwbert have already lost points because of that, but you're obviously too attentive to ever make such mistakes.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

JV Fan crushed everyone over the weekend by picking both the winner and the 3rd place finisher as well as getting half a point for Kopecky's stage win, while others didn't have the same kind of luck/cunningness.

JV: 4.5
RhD: 1.5
DKO: 1.5
Gwbert: 1.5

Live coverage for the Women's Tour has finally been confirmed today, so you can start looking at the provisional startlist: https://firstcycling.com/race.php?r=9063&y=2022&k=8

 

[RedheadDane]

Surely, we could also start looking at the provisional start list even if broadcast hadn't been confirmed.
