I believe there are no points for a breakaway in a stage race.

I can't see how some of the points for stage 4 come from -

Dron was in the break (10 points) , is 2nd in the Mountains classification (4 points), won the E cat climb and finished 8th in the 1 cat climb. Yet his total is only 17 points ?

In previous stages it looked like riders were getting the actual points scored in mountain stages.

Confused

Of course, I'll probably regret telling you that when I get bumped down the FSUCI because of it. Oh well, at least I had a good P-N and T-A.

Damn, only 12 transfers for this? I haven't checked at the beginning, thinking it would be something like the usual 15... that kind of messes the vague sort of strategy I had for this comp...sad

Not really sure why this is. I could definately have used those extra 3 transfers today, had to leave in two cheap sprinters to make room for surprise climbers...

For some reason they don't seem to have made the stage 1 results available. Bit odd really.

I recognise that.  You look at your team and think, it can't go wrong.  Then a few hours later you can believe that you left X out.

Podium today, but probably not much else.  Couldn't work out if I should go with Gerrans or Impey so took both.

Feeling a bit better after a stinker of Milan - San Remo (I had it all figured out.........).

It seems that you have Tony Martin for Ettix instead of Dan Martin in the riders list.
