Hmmmm not sure i made a mistake or not

Contador thinks Evans and Gilbert will be making moves today

I took out Gilbert and put in Vino

Now Evans is saying Garmin are going to try and put Miller in Yellow 20

I also switched Millar out, lol

Who's your money on for the win today and who will be in Yellow?

My winner today i think will come from Rabobank or Katusha and Evans or a Schleck in yellow

For an outside bet, Paolo Tiralongo could get the win after his Giro stage win

Well he did in 2009.

On the 22nd of July he won the 17th stage of the Tour de France, reaching the finish line in the company of overall leader Alberto Contador and his own brother, Andy Schleck.

F Schleck cant keep to with Contador up a hill, so i think it will have to be Andy

Got Hushovd, Gilbert (made the mistake of dropping him once - not doing it again) and F. Schleck. Uran and Kloden picked up a few as well as the inevitable Jerome. Up to 2nd but can't see my points for the stage. Want to get in Evans but can't do it yet.

F. Schleck to win it. Leopard-Trek have just been sitting back letting everyone else do the work.

Can't believe I actually moved up the leaderboard today, must be lots of sheep like me switching in Frank Schleck for Gilbert. 7 Can't believe I spent a good few minutes considering Rui Costa then plumped for Rijgh instead 20

At least it gives us a bit of a form guide for tomorrow.

I wouldn't say that, almost all the big guns finished together, Costa will be suffering tomorrow, I'm keeping Vino as i think once he saw he couldn't win he sat up to save his energy 4

Vino was banging his bars in the run in....He put in a massive effort and will suffer on tomorrows stage and will not be attacking again tomorrow...

Me too Dave, I thought Hushovd might do it but dropped him for Rojas and brought in Kloeden in place of Van Garderen.

I said I fancied Hushovd to stay the distance today.

Pity I didn't take my own advice, eh 39

Still, swapped in Frank Schleck so I think I'm up on the deal. Just.

Probably shouldn't have dropped Gilbert but at least I kept Hushovd. I did have Costa though so that was good 4

Lots of swearing there, Gilbert home in 2nd and Vino no-where, at least Evans came home in 3rd and Hushovd was still with him 1

Gkam84, I recall you calling Evans "a nearly man!"... but at the moment he is looking the strongest out of all the pre-race favourites! 39

I'm sticking to that, i would put money on him NOT winning the tour this year, yes he's still there and looked strong today, but then again he had the whole of BMC on the front all day
