    I'm changing my mind... Evans... win this time you unreliable, stroppy herbert!
    Pain is temporary. It may last a minute, or an hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it lasts forever.

    And the winner is... GroupOfOne! Well done that man. He and TheStone were two of just 4 players to pick Basso for the win, while greeny12 fills the final podium place after leading the way for almost 2 weeks.

    Thanks to everyone for playing and see you next week for the Dauphiné!

    Ah well, a podium's a podium, I guess.

    Always knew the "Basso effect" would get me in the end :wink:

    Thanks again for all your hard work AFX - see you at the Dauphine!!

    Thanks for all your efforts over the past 3 weeks, Mr. 237vi. After the response on this one, you might need to go to your secret Alpine lair to train for the TdF.

    Blimey I thought I'd had a well ropey Giro PTP and then Basso's win leaves me just outside the Top 10 :shock:
