Paris Nice Stage 4

Right, better day today points wise, but some of my riders might as well go home now for all they have done, I expect two of them to be in the break tomorrow, if not i'm signing up next year and showing them how its done  19

So who's got the winner tomorrow then?

Lampre and Rabobank chasing so LL Sanchez and Cunego maybe fancy it. My teacher mate has got Cunego. I'm hoping for something from de Gendt or Valverde again.

You can watch it from links on steephilltv. I'm watching it in French at the moment. Got Fedrigo in the break. Picked up a few mountain and sprint points but they're going to be brought back soon.

Gap keeps going down
Km 113 - Fedrigo, Peraud, Howard, De Clercq and Mate now only lead the peloton by 2:15.

Yay I can't believe I've actually got a rider in the break and he's picked up points already, go Peraud! Knowing my luck he'll get taken out by a TV car into a barbed wire fence!

Just my luck Pierrick Fedrigo (FDJ), was on my get list but needed Valverde and Gerrans more, after yesterday's dismal performance, Tom Boonen give on stage 2, Valverde taketh away stage 3.

At least I have Leigh Howard

"Gastroenteritis is affecting the peloton. Apparently, Jan Bakelants and Joost Posthuma, both RNT, and Taylor Phinney are sick and not starting"

Hands up if you've still got Phinney in your team  2

I've pretty much given up on the P-N now, after sitting 14th after stage one I've only be moving in one direction and yesterday was a disaster. My money's on Boonen or Haussler as I've just transferred them out, or Wiggins and TJvG as I've not got either of them.

Chavanel is too high up the order to be allowed to do his thing, so why is he in my team for this stage? still heading for place 1000

I'd like to thank Geraint Thomas for the last two day's winners. I'm racking up the points thanks to the Welsh mystic  13

After last few races I was starting to think he was the Gkam84 of the pro peloton!!! I would have put in Boonen for stage 2 if Gthom hadn't said he was going to win!  14

Looking at the stage tomoro it's a bit lumpy but nothing serious a decent break will defo be on the cards. The 2 2nd cat climbs are to early to make them decisive but you never know what the weathers going to be like and thats what will catch people out.

Wiggo still in yellow at the end though.  4
