TDU Stage 3
Just thought I'd see who's up and on the go?
I went to bed knackered at 7.30pm last night and woke up bang on 1.15am 
Live coverage starts at 2am. The moment I am just following twitter feeds.
For those who got confused by the scores yesterday.....today will be fun.
The break is Clarke and Clarke

At least my two transfers scored pts... no one else did. Lets hope they were keeping a bit back for tomorrow.
Better day today, 136, brought in Thomas and Slagter and kept Gilbert, so 1, 3, 4 and W Clark, Kerby keep scoring a few. Teams got a few sprinters for tomorrow then ditch one/two of those for 5 and bring one/two back for 6. Been using transfers up each day as everything zooming around wildly. Better race than last year though even though having mainly Aussies hasn't worked out as well as last year.
Slagter and Moreno in, Gerrans and Pineau OUT. Cue the Gerrans-Pineau one-two...
Still trusting in Greipel, not sure why though.
ive brought in Slagter for Schleck
I have Greipel, EBH, Demare, Von Hoff and Giacoppo for the sprint
so tomorrow should be better
Hopefully Will Clarke will go in a break again, he is my main source of points for both my teams!
I rather stupidly put all my eggs in a sprint shaped basket today but at least I got a positive score!
No transfer tonight, bunch sprint tomorrow then four transfers ahead of stage 5
Totally agree, my team resembled the 100 metres final but they all seem to have taken a wrong turn !
Decision now though is do i keep it the same for tomorrow or change it around slightly ?
2 days running now... which is about to become 3 and 4 days by the looks of it. Are you copying me or am I copying you?
perhaps 10 penalty points for transfers is not so great after all. The rate I'm going road cc should be giving me 10 points to make extra transfers. Lowest score in my palmares coming up. Can that be added to the rider palmaris section for balance Dave (JOKING). 
Scores done, I'm off for a nap. Any issues, give me a shout
Thats a betterish stage for me 1,3,4 & 8 only cause i used 20 penalty points to jig my team
Yeah, just doing them all up now, because Dave is busy with something today
At least I have Will Clarke again
Im gonna go for a decent score on stage 5 now, well I will try
Off to sleep for a couple of hours now
you gonna be doing the scores again?
