    I need to find a TINY photo for my avatar, apparently, so this will take some tinkering on a proper computer, rather than the iThing I'm on now.

    I just tried uploading 20 photos or so from the iThing. Most of Richie (I'll be honest -- I have close to no shame, and I like him -- he's usually quite smiley, even in pain, which makes for a nice photo or 20). They're all too big (unlike Richie), and I have no idea how to make them smaller.

    I'll work on this tomorrow, after Richie wins the stage. I'm in CA, if anyone is wondering why BikesBikesBikes is posting so late/early. I'm behind you all! Sneaking up -- no, not really -- more wondering what's happened while I've been asleep.

    hmmm, the eternal dilemma of PTP - go for who you think will win or who will lose you the least points

    Just my luck 'my man' Giacomo came third yesterday and I didn't pick him.

    S4 - Today I'll go for 'my man' Michal Kwiatkowski

    Scores updated. No change upfront as a win for the pundit's favourite has given a lot of people +6, but Key has moved into the virtual lead as Kwiatkowski takes a narrow lead in the GC. All still to play for.

    I really fancy Gallopin for this, but I said I would only pick my men and only pick my men i shall do.

    So, Stage 5: BOUHANNI, Nacer.

    And if one of the other French sprinters on Team My Man Pro Cycling p/b The_Boy wins then they are no longer my men. Thank you.
