Good stuff guys! lets hope we get lots more then after Paris I will add it all up and give a Top 3 of posters! Some good ones so far and some odd ones, someone with Nibail not in top 10 and so far none of you bar me with Uran in top 10, which is odd as Froome said he was one of his 4 strongest rivals before the race, my mistake as i was writing DFA123 has put Uran in top 10 :)

We all know Valverde is riding for himself, but occupying 2 top-10 spots? :p

Hi, Froome said it on ITV4 just after the finish of the TT, it sunk straight into my mind as I thought it odd that he considered his rivals this year to be AC,Nib, Quin and Uran.

Well done on all the competitors here and Yes Gigs its cool to change , and Valverde twice lmao!!!!

NOTE TO ALL - NO ENTRIES AFTER TUESDAY NOON 12pm AS TUESDAY STAGE IS PARAMOUNT TO THE GC.

not bad day for my above list.

molema is 11th and peraud is 14th, so...

nibs will soon be gone.

hoping contador hangs in for 9th.

talansky - fail.
Click to expand...

nibs out as expected.

mollema in.

talansky improving and may doggedly reach top ten by end of tdf if gallopin drops.

i need froome to have to really use up G. but no matter what, i don't think peraud is making it now.

i'll settle for 8/10, would like 9/10.
