Highlight of the season! And it's a close PTP as well...

Imatfaal has sorted most of the details in the spoiler thread

And Pez had a nice preview

Procyclingstats have a very rough startlist

All picks in by 12.00pm UK time

EDIT

The following seven are to PM me their picks to avoid wheelsucking...

Stanislav 1338
ShockedSoShocked 1335
RichN95 1308
TakeTheHighRoad 1295
tforonda 1265
rozzer32 1253
Bluemoon17 1248

    So how are we doing the run in?

    There are six people in with a chance of the win (I think). I believe that traditionally the picks for the last couple of races can be submitted via DM to the curator of that race and kept secret until after the submission deadline - to prevent 'wheelsucking'.

    These are the top six:
    1350 Stanislav
    1323 ShockedsoShocked
    1308 RichN95
    1295 TakeTheHighRoad
    1265 Tfronda
    1253 Rozzer32

    I have no previous experience of being this close, so others could advise.

    Surely there is an art to wheelsucking as well... but I don't make the rules of PTP!

    Happy to be DM-ed by the six listed. I'll be around on Sun so can probably post the picks after 1200...

    Well Mr Dash, I'll be sending you my pick on Saturday, privately for non-disclosure. If others want to go another way then OK. If the rules say you must publish, then you must publish.

    PS Come on Iuri Filosi! I'm counting on you

    Surely I ought to publish all six picks once the pick deadline has passed. That would ensure transparency as well as heighten the tension in this close fight to the finish...

    It is not even the last PTP race of the season. I thought everyone was allowed to wheel suck until the sprint finish.
