Stage 8 lazy pog gains virtuallly everyone the same points and Lenny denied the few brave picks... Ben "Ruse" Healey came close

Overall a 3 way split on the podium . Purple penguin 🐧 cycling_mike and duck 🦆 number1 all.tie on 80 points .... So well down them . Knedlicky wins the combative prize 🏆 imo but thats unofficial.

Thanks for scoring, do I not get GC points for picking Pogi or am I really that bad at this game

„Knedlicky wins the combative prize. imo but thats unofficial"

Thanks for the (albeit unofficial) award/compliment, mididoctors!
I realise I would never have won overall, but had Penhoet not used his elbow in the stage 2 sprint, and thus as consquence been lower-placed, I might at least have had a few more points!

I don't really understand why so many PTP-participants choose the 'possibly-obvious' winner - what fun is there in predicting a 'favourite' will win? Afterall PTP, isn't a betting shop where we will then lose money if wrong.
I won the Bikeradar Giro PTP the year Carapaz won because I chose differently, and I nearly won the following year for the same reason (I lost only on last stage).

Perhaps the PTP should be changed so it doesn't allow predicting the same stage winner twice within any week, to deter those always constantly choosing, as now so often, Pogacar.
