142pts good enough for 25th on the stage backing up my 3rd in the ITT......so when you see that I'm still not in the top 250 it's obvious what a shocker I had during the early 'V fo Victory' stages!!.
When I shoot up over 400 places in two days it shows how badly I started the Dauphiné.
Thoroughly enjoyed that, the look on Bertie's face as he could not keep up with Froome was priceless .
You could almost see his TdF hopes get obliterated, mind you thats another race and still a way off yet.
Everyone wrote him off in the Vuelta too!!
111 for me after a 20 point penalty. Not bad, but not good either.
93 points today, down to 21st overall. Think thats my fight over!!!!
It can be difficult to come from behind but a top 10 finish isn't out of the questions, you just need to call the next few stages correctly and possibly take a risk or two (time for penalty transfers?).
107 in the end, missed a couple of points for Barguil. still 9th overall and leading Forum Scorum but dropping away slightly. Top spot is out of reach so fighting to stay top 10.
Plus, with De Gendt and Kwiatkowski my purist team had a poor day and dropped a few places.
1, 14 & 19, plus KOM points from Damuseau.
Also just missed out on Lanterne Rouge by one place!
8 scoring riders for me.....A massive 82 points
105 points for me I think, 1, 4, and 9 plus GC points.
Just 1 & 9 for me, dont think thats gonna help my overall!
Beats my 1,10 although I do have 1,8,9,10 on gc .....

1 Christopher Froome (GBr) Sky Procycling

Tour of Cali wasn't that long ago Gkam.....even for someone with a brain like a sieve such as myself!!
I must have a hole in my sieve....because I totally forgot he won a stage in Cali
Just so we know who is in this break, here is the list with full names and team names: Bert Wellens (Lotto Belisol),Matteo Gavazzi (Astana),Tom-Jelte Slagter (Blanco), Matthew Busche (RadioShack-Leopard), Daniel Teklehaimanot (Orica-GreenEdge), Pelo Bilbao (Euskaltel), Kevin Reza (Eurocar), Frantiske Rabon (Omega Pharma-QuickStep), Cayetano Sarmiento (Cannondale), Imanol Erviti (Movistar), Bertjan Lindeman (Vacansoleil-DCM), Bartosz Huzarski (NetApp-Endura), Brent Bookwalter (BMC), Thomas Damuseau (Argos-Shimano and David de la Cruz (NetApp-Endura).
I actually think vielleux will ry to get in the break again today to try to claim the mountain jersey , I also think Roland will attack on the summit finish to take the win ....still after the way my picks have gone I wouldn't bet on them
with Vielleux only 1.09 down on the leader he wouldn't be allowed to get in the break.
Realised that may be a possibility but was hoping they would have let him go because of the finish .....still either way I was wrong ....Again!
Please don't let Enrique beat me overall ....I'll be suicidal if that happened
Heh heh! You just made me take a risk for tomorrow I never would have normally taken!

Green arrows last 3 stages so hoping for the same today. Tough one to predict today
I couldnt make anything fit well on a 2/3 transfer combo, so made only one change and stuck with the rest, gives me a bit more leeway to switch to sprinters tomorrow, and switch back again after...
Its either a break, or I think more likely a sky train blowing everyone out, froomedog taking the win.
Christopher Froome (SKY)
Michal Kwiatkowski (OPQ)
Richie Porte (SKY)
