Yay, I guess. 
So 3 guys with similar names after each other is Jesleyh time from now on on this forum? 
Annoying that Morton blocked us

No, Jesleyh time would be if 3 guys with similar names finish after eachother and Kelderman wins.

Thanks for the comments, hopefully the results are going to change for the better!
Pan flat, short, mass sprint...
6th day, 6th break. This time it's quite big, the main names are Cantwell and Kuschynski. Oh and of course, our very own Kim Yoo-Suk. The break got off to a nice lead, but that wasn't the main thing for us, as we were solely concentrating on the sprints, taking 3 of them and getting 2nd. To see what we were trying to do, look at the results.
However, this time the peloton just wasn't in the mood to let them go, so Orica and Astana took care of them. It was all coming down to the sprint. We decided not to make our train, rather try to latch onto some wheels with Bányai.
Like in almost all stages, there are two main trains. Blanco and Orica are controlling things nicely, we're right there, stepping onto their heels. This is looking really nice for us, it's promising!
Renshaw and Impey are still getting the perfect leadout, but Bányai and Ponzi are also there, as is Boeckmans.
The pack is speeding through the last kilometer it's the afore-mentioned guys at the front! Now they're all fading a bit, Bányai takes the lead, can he hold on?!
No, it's Boeckmans! The belgian makes the jump just before the finish line, what a shame for us! Dávid Bányai comes 2nd, Ponzi takes the 3rd...
 | 1 | Kris Boeckmans | Vacansoleil - DCM Pro Cycling Team | 1h54'46 |  | 2 | Dávid Bányai | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. |  | 3 | Simone Ponzi | Astana Pro Team | s.t. |  | 4 | Daryl Impey | Orica - GreenEdge | s.t. | | 5 | Mark Renshaw | Blanco Pro Cycling Team | s.t. | | 6 | Francesco Gavazzi | Astana Pro Team | s.t. | | 7 | Luca Paolini | Katusha Team | s.t. | | 8 | Davide Appollonio | AG2R La Mondiale | s.t. |  | 9 | Tom Veelers | Team Argos - Shimano | s.t. |  | 10 | Koldo Fernández | Garmin - Sharp | s.t. |
Ponzi takes the GC victory, after being the most consistent of all, being in the Top 5 in every stage. Totally deserved. Spilak and Cataldo round up the podium, the best Spider is Bányai at nr. 11.
| 1 | Simone Ponzi | Astana Pro Team | 18h10'22 | | 2 | Simon Spilak | Katusha Team | + 14 | | 3 | Dario Cataldo | Sky Procycling | + 18 | | 4 | Francesco Gavazzi | Astana Pro Team | + 22 | | 5 | Simon Geschke | Team Argos - Shimano | s.t. | | 6 | Baden Cooke | Orica - GreenEdge | + 39 | | 7 | Kris Boeckmans | Vacansoleil - DCM Pro Cycling Team | s.t. | | 8 | Andrea Palini | Lampre - Merida | + 46 | | 9 | Samuel Dumoulin | AG2R La Mondiale | + 47 | | 10 | Luca Paolini | Katusha Team | + 49 | | 11 | Dávid Bányai | SpiderTech - Cervélo | s.t. |
Ponzi again, he was the best finisher, no doubt.
| 1 | Simone Ponzi | Astana Pro Team | | 24 | | 2 | Andrea Palini | Lampre - Merida | | 18 | | 3 | Baden Cooke | Orica - GreenEdge | | 14 |
Our first jersey! After the breakaway in stage 6, Kim collects enough points to win the KOM jersey! Really nice stuff here!
| 1 | Yoo-suk Kim | SpiderTech - Cervélo | | 28 | | 2 | Maarten Wynants | Blanco Pro Cycling Team | | 24 | | 3 | Aleksandr Kuschynski | Katusha Team | | 24 |
Spider of the Day/DS Reaction
Dávid Bányai - 2 - for the team's first podium.
Kim Yoo-Suk - 2 for the KOM jersey
After the bad stages, finally something great! Let's keep this up Spiders!
That concludes the STDU, hope you liked it and see you next with the January Review!  |

The black and white can be very hard to read at times. I get the effect you're going for but it doesn't quite work, especially without enlarging the images by clicking on them.
And calendar looks great... Route du Sud!!!!!

I have no problem reading them, but don't matter.
Do you already have the year planned out or not? Otherwise I'd love to know when Sullivan gets in action |
