In round 8 we had change at last, as MickMacP was finally dislodged from the top spot by Moist von Lipwig as the pack closed his early lead.
but more change is afoot, as the scrap hots up ...

In round 10 rather surprisingly MickMacP makes a comeback and Moist von Lipwig drops to second, with TheoVodkat continuing to close the gap on the leaders by taking another yellow cap ...

Rather predictably, in round 11 our man Moist von Lipwig burns everybody, takes another yellow cap, and launches himself into the lead again with an attractive 7 point lead over MickMacP and the rest of the pursuing Peloton

Somewhat less predictably, in rounds 12 & 13 the less than honorable MickMacP nicks back the lead and Moist von Lipwig and the pursuing Peloton continue to follow closely behind ...

2017 Vuelta a Espana champion : Moist von Lipwig
Heartbreaking for some, I know, but the last two rounds were taken by a jubilant Moist Von Lipwig who beat his nearest competitor (me) by 3 points in round 20 and 2 points in round 21 , to wrap the title up quite comfortably ... Metal Warlord also put in a strong finish, but timed his charge too late to get on the podium ...
CONGRATS to Moist von Lipwig
of course, we could always award him the alternative ...
what is the preference?
thanks to everybody for participating ... the good number of participants make it all the more enjoyable.
