ROBBED, ROBBED, Ballan (I) wiz Robbed!!!!!!!!!

If Sean Kelly reckons Ballan was second that's good enough for me

Anyhow, despite the obvious injustice it must be acknowledged that Tornado Toms ride was awesome

So our Paris Roubaix winner (courtesy of a well played joker) is Duncan with 30 points

Second goes to Jann and Paul C ("I didn't copy Jann honest" ) with 14 points (Boonen 1st and Ballan 3rd)

Third is shared between too many to mention all with Boonen in 1st so 10 points.

Overall Table:

1st David 108 points

2nd Jann 107 points

3rd Richie 94 points

4th Ramsay 86 points

5th Paul M 84 points

6th Me 83 points

7th Alan 74 points

8th Duncan 73 points

9th Tom 68 points (no entry )

10th Billy 67 points

11th Greig 59 points

12th Chung 54 points

13th Paul C 39 points

14th Kenny 36 points

Colin

Paris Roubaix:

1st Hushovd

2nd Ballan

I reckon this is the one BMC really want

Might as well stake my joker on it as well

Colin

Cheers for the link Paul.

Anybody know where you can get them? I'm sure I've seen Ramsay with some form of cover. Fed up replacing worn cleats when most of the wear comes from walking to the train/cafe etc.

Colin

Team Mulholland covert TTT training under cover of near darkness on the Georgetown last night.

Colin

Tom,

Your now added.

Technical glitch with the Supercomputer

Colin

Colin

Alan and everybody,

Next race:

25 Mar 2012 Gent - Wevelgem Belgium

Top 3 predictions please by 23.59 24th March.

This qualifies for jokers for those who still have one left.

Colin

MSR winner - Greig with 7 points (Cancellara 2nd)

2nd Jann - 6 points (2 for Cancellara in top 3 multiplied by 3 as joker played )

Joint 3rd David, Chung, Ramsay, and Alan all with 2 points.

Overall:

Thanks to her use of the joker Jann storms into the lead:

1st Jann 73 points (Classics Joker played)

2nd Billy 67 points

3rd Tom 64 points (Classics Joker played )

Joint 4th Paul M and David 62 points

5th Me 60 points

2nd EBH

3rd Boonen

Colin

Paul

Alan did indeed score 20 points for the overall in TA.

He also scored 2 points for Cancellara in the top 3 of the ITT hence 2 points.

Total = 22 points

Anybody else??????????? Just incase I did spell results wrong in my last posting

Even so.... he would still be ahead of you

Colin

David,

You are once again correct (well partly at least )

The supercomputer was a bit tired the night I tallied up the results

So....... you are due 17 points for correct prediction of 1st and 2nd place climbers

You also score 4 points for Nibali and Kreuziger (top 3 but in wrong positions)

That makes 21 points???????

HOWEVER - your 10 points for Cancellara do not count to the overall TA results as they have been awarded as a seperate score for the ITT only. If Tom had his 10 points he would still have won the overall as he would have had 32 points

Therefore you get second overall

Points table and resukts updated to reflect this in previous posting

Colin

Soooooo many people with Cancellara for the win today

Is easier to say who lost out - Billy, Greig (no entry), Ramsay, Paul C and Alan all missed out on the sure bet

Overall Tirrenno Winner - Tom 22 points (Cav 1 win, Nibali 1st GC, Sagan top 3 points)

2nd place David 21 points

3rd place Jann and Alan 20 points

Overall table:

Joint 1st Billy and Jann 67 points

2nd Tom 64 points

3rd Paul M 62 points

Joint 4th Me and David 60 points

5th Richie 54 points

6th Chung 44 points

7th Ramsay 42 points

8th Greig 40 points (no entries )

9th Duncan 37 points

10th Alan 22 points (and finally off the mark)

11th Paul C 13 points

12th Kenny S 6 points (have you given up already???????)

13th Martin 0 points (is there anybody out there?!?!?!?!?!?)

Ramsay is correct that MSR predictions are required by 23.59 Friday (2 great engineering minds think alike ).

Colin

I suspect you may just be taking the p**s now Richie

Scroll down to the bottom of the page. Look to the RHS and see "Previous 1,2,3". Click on 1,2 or 3 to go to the page you are looking for.

Colin

For those whose memory is failing them due to age or those who just can't be a***d looking back through the previous postings:

Additional Scoring Oppertunity - Each entrant will have 2 joker cards. One will apply to classic races and one to Grand Tours (Italy, France and Spain). These will be worth TRIPLE points, must be notified with original predictions and will work as follows:

Classics - Choose which top 3 you have selected has the most chance of success and play joker. Any points scored will be x3. Be careful though as you only have 1 card so can only choose 1 race to play it

Grand Tours - Same as above but applies to one category within a race only (ie Overall, Climbers or Sprinters). So if you think you have chosen the top 3 sprinters in the TDF then play your joker for points x3

Colin

Remember folks, Milan San Remo this coming Saturday

Predictions required for top 3.

Also this is the first of the classics that you can play your joker card on for the possibility of triple points . You can only use it once though so be careful

Paul, gave up on the spreadsheet and have reverted to using the supercomputer that I have been developing over the last 36 years

Colin

Pretty obviously those who picked Wiggins today are our join TT winners

As for our Paris nice champion honours are shared between Paul M and Greig with 24 points.
