Welcome to the Race Predictions forum homepage.
Here you'll find CW forum users giving their predictions on forthcoming races.
If you want to make a comment about a race that isn't directly related to these predictions, then please use the Racing section.
A small selection of prizes are on offer to those lucky, lucky people who select the riders who do best. Currently, these are supplied by the ever fantastic Geoffrey Butler Cycles, who have donated loads of top quality socks to give away.
Good luck.
Nigel

Love the socks that I received and an order for more and for some clothing that I have taken a fancy to on their website is imminent. Thanks to GB cycles.

Hey! Today I received my prize for my glorious win in Catalunya - and I just want to say a BIG thanks to Geoffrey Butler and SRAM. I used to live in Croydon and shopped there in person, and have since shopped online with them. All good stuff and although I'm not in it for the prizes it's nice to be able to say thamks to a shop I know provides great service and is willing to support some blokes and blokettes having a bit of fun with our sport on a forum....

Is the Geoffrey Barker comp prize a 12 or 13 speeder, also does it come with the bars turned up or some kind of lightweight kick stand for the shopping run?

For 2009 the points scoring remains as above.
And a reminder:
All predictions have to be made before the race/stage's published start time starts.
All Schleck's, Downing's etc need to be specified, it also helps if you spell peoples names correctly so I don't correct them to the wrong rider.
Any complents/questions please send to me.
Cheers and good luck

Also add Tony/Dan Martin to that list
