Just a Kiwi gets his/her second win of the season in the Volta a Catalunya

Didn’t take part in this but
The on day and stage races over the last 5 or 6 weeks have just been proper cycle races
it’s great sport at the moment

On another note - my son and his partner found Tokyo a bit of a culture shock after NZ
Currently in Osaka which they describe as the Glasgow of Japan (that’s a good thing)

well done Kiwi. I’d written this off after Friday but it ended up being pretty close in the end.

I do love Japan and definitely a culture difference to here. in Fact I can’t think of a country more different. The crazy concrete metropolis of Tokyo and Osaka! Hope they made a trip to Mount Fuji.

Two popular picks in Bilbao and Soler out of the tour of the Basque. Both in my team…

A swift recovery to both.

 

[Abel Tasman]

Itzulia or Tour of the Basque Country finished yesterday and a win for Cardiffdaffs. His second win in 3

 

[Abel Tasman]

Two more competitions ended today after the Liege Bastogne Liege. Both have been won by Cardiffdaffs. Cardiff has now won 4 out of the last 5. What a roll he is on.

Spring Classics



And the Women’s event

 

[Cardiffdaffs]

I am certainly on a lucky streak of wins after a barren start to the season! My Romandie team is changing - I’m struggling with this one.

 

[Zoophonic]

I can’t buy a win this season. Hopeless.

 

[Abel Tasman]

Romandie finished and here is the result with MCW pipping me at the end courtesy of his Adam Yates pick. The big one, The Giro, starting next weekend and will get that up under a fresh thread when the game is launched.

Clear split in the table between the teams who chose the right Yates, and them who didn’t….
