The race has been over for a while so results are much past due.
The podium:
1 - Little red riding hood - Ryan Buus - 6267
King of consistency - Ryan was able to keep his team near the top for three full weeks. The average placement of 3.27 on each stage was the best of all competitors and paid in the end.
2 - Moto Man - Justin Rath - 5936
Late mover - Winning final three stages and most importantly placing four riders in the top 10 in the overall competition is the way Justin Rath competes. Sometimes it works and others it doesn't. This tour it came up just a few hundred points short.
3 - Los Renacuajos - Charlie Sawyer - 5710
Steady eddy - Charlie was near the top through it all, but was just missing the finishing touches to get to the top. He did stay on the podium to the end.
Lanterne Rouge - The Blazing Saddles managed by Geoff Crandon have the most room to improve. I would have to look back into the archives, but if memory serves about every person on this list has been the Lanterne Rouge at least once. Some have won the next tour. Geoff it was great having you play. You are welcome back anytime.

The cream is rising to the top and Moto Man @JustinTRath is coming on strong! He might have picked just the right mix of riders. Currently sitting with four of the top eight riders on his team it will be tight if he is able to overcome the Buus household at the top.

This race has been awesome! Multiple riders are showing good form through the first two weeks of racing which means the final 1/3 of the race should be exciting! The Spanish armada is leading the way, but others are looking to upset the fleet of riders.
How is your team doing? All but two teams are within 600 points of the lead. This should make for a great competition as the roads turn up.
