Cycling Predictions 2011

Well the Giro is finally over and lets hope the winner is a worthy one :roll:

 

Certainaly, if Bert is proved innocent, its hard to argue against him being the best stage race rider ever (and that's before he wins the Tour and Vuelta this year :oops: )

 

Anyhow the points go as follows after todays TT:

 

Billy Mac and Paul 18 points;

Jann, Duncan and Richie 12 points;

Alan M 4 points;

Ramsay, Me, Richard M, Kenny C and Davie 2 points.

 

Greig, you missed out again. Have you given up????????? Tom you also did not submit any choices (easy points missed :angryfire )

 

Full points tally will follow once I have worked out the points for the overall results in each category.

 

Colin Hello, beer !!

Right then,

 

Overall standings following the completion of the Giro (to include points scored in today's ITT):

 

1st Richie 120 points;

2nd Paul M 119 points;

3rd Richard M 95 points;

4th Me 84 points;

5th Davie B 80 points;

Joint 6th Alan M and Billy 79 points;

7th Duncan 74 points;

8th Jann 71 points;

9th Kenny C 54 points;

10th Ramsay 50 points;

11th Tom 48 points;

12th Greig 44 points

 

Big scorers in the overall for the Giro were:

 

Richard 34 points (10 for the overall, 9 for the mountains, 15 for the points)

Paul 33 points (14 for the overall, 9 for the mountains, 10 for the team)

Richie 30 points (16 for the overall, 2 for the mountains, 12 for the points)

 

Well done everybody.

 

Remember, predictions for the Dauphine are now required (and should include top 3 in the prolouge. Stage 3 ITT predictions will be required by the day before it takes place).

 

It starts on 5th June (next weekend??????)

 

I look forward to someone finding the falws in the scoring ;-)

Hey Richie

 

Better watch out I'm on yer wheel for the 2011 intermediate sprint :grin::grin: Long way to go though - better start on the energy drinks

 

Oh ya dancer !

 

:grin: Thought I was being toppled when I saw you had Contador for the ITT. I'd read an interview where he said he was just going to take it easy so didn't pick him.

 

If that was him taking it easy!!!

 

Bring on the Dauphine!! Oh ya dancer !

Richie,

 

It has crossed my mind to tell you that you are correct and then, at the end of the Dauphine, award points to all for the overalls as well :roll: Thought that might be a bit unfair though.

 

So to sumarise, predictions required for the Duphine by 23.59 June 4th:

 

Top 3 overall,

Top 3 mountain goats overall,

Top 3 speed demons overall

Top team overall

Top 3 in prolouge.

 

These should be followed by top 3 in the ITT the day before it is run.

 

Hope this helps.

 

Colin Hello, beer !!

Paul,

 

you've been putting in the hard yards, watching your diet and doing high intensity reps. Clearly its all coming good. Oh ya dancer !Oh ya dancer !Oh ya dancer !Oh ya dancer !

Mind you, putting your nose in the wind, may be too early to try and hold the jersey all the way in. Come with me to the Casbah.

 

AS regards my own team- TONY MARTIN 34th! I mean come on!

 

He should have been first :icon_butting_comp

 

Duncan
