    There are some clear winners there, and some clear losers... Sorry Frenchie.
    The pick system was systematised, and much as I may have wanted to rig it sometimes karma just rules supreme :-D

    Please note, having picked a number, you now have a MORAL OBLIGATION to follow your rider and praise his every move.
    15 seconds pulling on the front not too quickly? He's a powerhouse, a monster, stringing the peloton out. A slip on the cobbles? Magnificent handling to save it (if he didn't save it then blame the amateur in front).
