Kruiswijk & even Chaves severely underrated in this prediction thread. We should all feel ashamed.

Uhm that's what I'm saying, 5th is the best that daily thought Kruiswijk could do. Now he may could actually win this Giro.

Yeah, I also placed a few kilos on Kruiswijk and Cha... oh wait
Its too easy to say we are stupid after the fact. I had never imagined Chaves would climb this well on multi mountain stages in high altitude, but apparently he is. Kruiswijk was a little more obvious since he was lights out in the last week, but look what they were/are up against |

I had him fifth because of the time he was supposed to lose in the first week. When that didn't happen, it was clear I had to move him up in the rankings
