Thanks all for the offers, I'll give Qatar to TMM as his team is not in the race. I might need some more reporters later on though. Jaxika, are ok to do Oman?
guess it's time to prepare for reports around christmas or excusen on short reports
fantasty games, TMM and Qatar don't match very well
I always had reasons! Usually that my laptop hated the UCPCL DB with a passion. Already used the EPIC DB with no issues (i did check before offering ).
Then there was the 2months i was away, uni exams, uni coursework etc.
But yes expect short reports... it's Qatar. Break goes, gets caught, sprint...

Nothing major in the last stage, as expected, though it's nice to see Rudy score his first points.
Thanks for the great reports Selwink!

Thanks Selwink. Great stuff . 84th for Blythe, what a way to finish this brilliant race for BMC. Getting a bit bored of Katusha winning every stage though . |

Great reports.
Don't know what Viviani is doing, but at least he got a top 10. Too bad Moser couldn't get into the GC top 10. |

Thanks for some great reports!
Nice to see Rudy score his first top 10 - I said he could
And good to see Antón holding on to the GC top 10. Luckily the points aren't different even though he lost a place today...

Thanks all! The most difficult of this TDU was leaving stuff out, it was a really nice race, very varied. Echelons, sprints, punch, breaks, it all was there.

Non-managed teams 1 : Everyone else 0... awesome
FDJ got our goal of a stage win, and some good rides elsewhere.
Nice stuff from Hazen, about what i was expecting.
Good reports, now lets crack on with all the next races!!!

Katusha was pretty good, though Kristoff being the best sprinter has more to do with others not sending their top sprinter to a 6 day stage race with 3-4 mass sprints. Greipel more or less killed everyone in TDU in UCPCL.
Anyway, I'll balance a bit by sending lesser riders to Katusha's next races.

I think we should advance to the next race already.
Just waiting on San Luis would slow down the game, right?

Have you heard from Neillster, Ollfardh?
Anyway, there's nothing to stop Marseillaise from going ahead. |
