Bikex - Ah! Makes sense now. No worries. 
SH - Yep, thanks for the correction. And, well!, if I didn't mix up some of the positions in the rankings I would never guess them all right.
Stage 2 of the Giro is up now: featuring a surprising pink jersey. Disappointed that de Gendt didn't make the big split, but Porte losing to no time makes up for it. Quite stages for us. |

Wellens does very good so far, was doubting to make him a stage racer or puncheur (just like in real life ), but I'm happy with him so far.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

And there is already the first win for Froomey - and even on a stage I didn't expect him to be top placed.. And all of a sudden a wild De Clercq apperas in 4th...
That's certainly gonna be a nice Giro for us

Meeeeeh, Rosa losing 2.39 in the 2nd stage, I think that this kills all my enthusiasm..
Hoping for a breakaway win then.

hopefully Majka is either able to bounce back from bad TT results or limit the losses there to secure a good end final classification result. good preview btw, not often that I read the teams thread 
should have send probably more croatians in hindsigdt since appearently it's starts there

Stage 4 and now CarbonSports completely rapes everyone else. I would have loved seeing this sprint as the gap to Viviani is incredible. Ciolek still on the podium is another sign of our class B-)

That is one unsafe bridge for the spectators. 
Good TTT for Celesio, Mohoric now 3rd in GC somehow. Aru is looking good.  |

Bunzl in the top 5 of a GT. Quick, abandon the rest of the race!

Some easy points with Lib being best team (wtf lol), so far fairly satisfied with the performances of my youngsters. I've somewhat hopes for a good ranking in young rider jersey, maybe even a bit more in GC like a top 10, pretty please? Stage win would be still deluxe. Good Giro so far.

Well, failed the top 10 in Stage 4 and Stage 5 but I can't say it was unexpected to be fair.
Love that screenshot, really really a beautiful one. Oh and the crowd 
My best rider is now 56th overall with 3 minutes and 30 from Porte... I don't like this route, Stage 2 already partly decided who can't win the Giro. I mean I couldn't hope for more than a Top 15/20 judging by the startlist but hey ho.
Hoping for another breakaway win

The team shows its quality against the clock, very pleased with that as it was no given. 
Porte in pink: crucially looks set to start the first mountain stage in the lead.
Crazy, crazy, waters! |
