Velogames - Vuelta

[bicing]

I have plummeted down to 8th in the CN forum rankings, I'm honestly surprised I am still good - with Cavendish and Anton riding like the things that can time trial faster than Ivan Basso, plus Machado not getting into breakaways and Roche's panache being transplanted into Dan Martin for this Vuelta, I have given up on this game too.

Hmm... Looks like after today, I might actually leapfrog TSF, and get out of the bottom 2 in the CN forum league

Euskaltel have deserted me, Menchov and Sastre have been invisible and left me dead last. Long way to go yet though. Thank god for Nibbles and Martin

What's Michele Scarponi done to be ahead of Wiggins on points?

 

[MatchstickMan]

Why no points for stage winner Sagan yesterday?

[AussieGoddess]

they havent allocated any points for the stage win except to Bennati .... there is a few points missing there

Wiggins hasnt got any for overall either. Still being updated I guess

 

[Swiss Tony]

Why no points updated from the last two stages ???

 

[Gubby Allen]

I've got Sagan & Degenkolb in my side - 1st & 2nd on Stage 12, but their points are still not included. Yet stage 13 is updated.

They've updated through stage 15 now but still not fixed stage 12. I had Sagan and Degenkolb too so that stage should have been my moment of glory in the standings.

At least Poels is getting me good value because I sure didn't predict overall standings like we're seeing...

Just checked to see how my team was doing. Third to last place in the CN league. Scarponi, and Freire are no more, and Nibali and Anton may as well not be. Sagan is my only shining light.

There's always the next tour... which I think I've said after each of the velo competitions

 

[greenedge]

Should have got JROD if only just for the stages. Nibali got a few points but am glad i did not get him now as it looks like he might not be favourite to win at all any more.

Had no Cobo and had Cav so that screwed it for me.

Sagan, the 2 Martins ( though Tony will not try any more ) and Fuglsang are my hopes. I also hope that JVDB can top 5 as well.

Ended up 18th overall and 2nd in the CN & Team Sky mini leagues, both to the same team above me.

Bloody Xavier Zandio - 2 tours running I've piked him & he's been crap in both. I toyed between him & Dan Martin. I'd have won it with the latter.

ok - I have joined my very first Velogames comp

Cross fingers I have learnt something from my time here

hmm - well it seems I still have a LOT to learn as my team was pretty ordinary.

I had Nibali, Scarponi and JVDB for overall .... and while I did have Sagan and Kittel who did ok, but then - so did everyone

Oh well - maybe next time.

I'm pretty pleased to have had 8 of my riders finish the race! I think my previous best was 6 and I've been as low as 4 so I've sometimes felt I was jinxing my picks. The only guy I lost this time was Kittel and he didn't break any bones so all is good. Too bad my top guy on GC was Nibali in 7th.

This was not a race anybody outside Team Sky and Geox TMC could have possibly predicted well.

The guys with huge GT records failed miserably. The most intelligent computers could not predict this.
