... including results from the 25" Time-Trial as well as last weekend's Nationals!

..the tension is palpable...

1. ElCid - 1563 pt
2. PaulyPaul0 - 1556 pt
3. Fozziebear - 1445
4. eric09 - 1429
5. bigoldetc - 1364
6. winegoblin - 1344
7. GPantani98 - 1312
8. Fizban -1236
9. Bellew - 1197
10. AJB - 1169
11. Bluebeard - 934
12. rcruise63 - 912
13. daveno7 - 905
14. cacophony - 903
15.Campag - 899
16. Slowhand - 889
17. jonporter -885
18. Smokin-Joe - 860
19. dang - 837
20. twa - 737
21. simon9k - 719
22. leigh05 - 565
23. pondweed - 493
24. Ranger - 477
25. wuverley - 466
26. notguilty - 465
27. Buzz- 462
28. watchyb -452
29. foto43 - 358
30. MsTree - 292
31. topcat - 272
32. JSheffield -236
33. Kieran - 188
34. Flossie - 183
35. AlanR - 179
36.Brian - 158
37. soperman - 144
38. onlyme - 104
39. acatnamedbugno - 85
40. Deejay - 75
41. fluided - 70
42. madchemist - 68
43. james70 - 65
44. scm - 55
45. brummiedave - 55
46. mescalin - 35
47. ironmandave - 30
48. tonybv - 20
49. gorgeousgaz - 18
50. nohunsinheaven - 15
51. Rocketman - 13 on another doomed Apollo mission?


So ElCid and Paulypaul0 have split off from the bunch and are battling it out mano a mano at the head of the prediction field!

But have they used up too much energy too soon?? Will the chasing Fozzie group manage to bring them back? Will Wuverley claw back those 1100 pts to claim the final victory?

There's still a long way to go to Lombardy....

Thanks for the new table.
1100 points is exaggerating, I only need 1098 to take the lead.

Excellent. All that incommunicado training in Mexico during the spring is now paying off. I will surely surprise everyone by winning the Tour, or not.

I was about to post something along the lines of being a bit peeved that the results for the 25 TT were included in the overall for a few reasons. Then I checked how many points I actually got compared to others and a post like that might make me look like a sore loser, so I won't bother.

I've deliberately dropped points to get in the big fellas draught where hopefully I will take an easy three week ride to the finish in Paris.

I am almost certain that myself and an Italian cycling commentator friend of mine saw you in Italy the other week...

Fuzziebush - You could be correct. We are up for a great tour. Anything could happen. Predicting the future is never easy. I was speaking to Gordon Brown the other day, and he was convinced that it would be an Italian one-two, Cunego then Ricco. But I told him that he was predicting with his heart, not his head. Gordon always has that trouble when looking into the future. That and taking too much notice of people who don't know what they are talking about. Ed Balls brought Ricco to Gordon's attention after one of the waitresses in the member's East Wing luncheon bar turned out to be a big mouthed little Italian ladyboy. Roman Abramovitch has put a tenner on Menchov, but that's just sentimental predicting. I told him he's wasting his money, he did n't like that. What's really going to happen is that Devolder is going to blast over the mountains and surprise everyone with his raw power. Evans and Valverde will be reduced to tears. Kreuziger will come through to win the mountains. Ken Lovingstone told me that while we were getting a massage in a little place I know in an attic above a restaurant in Chinatown.
Happy Predicting Everybody.
