Well the majority got it hopelessly wrong on the TT so in the interests of getting your own back here are some options for Sunday... Wink

GB only have 3 riders Crying or Very sad

if we hadn't have given away the empire so cheaply, would all of those riders from the colonies be riding as Great Britain?

Pozzato's a good shout but there's only so many 'leaders' you can put in a poll. Hushvod relies on a bunch sprint and at the time of writing the course was thought unlikely to end up in one. Hincapie is not riding! Wink

I didn't think the French stood a chance so of the major nations I missed them off.

Unreal. Porter still putting Bettini in the leading group when the caption showing otherwise! Do they have weeny unreadable screens or something?

Good result. Bettini deserved it, Zabel was impressive at his age and Valverde showed he's consistent. Millar did a great ride as well. Cool
