Oh and nice to get a #FRATL victory and a top 5 #TrollTips on the final stage too! And finish up with a #8NationsTDF podium :-)

Congrats to all the winners and thanks again to @markrprior and @Sophoife for all their time effort and energy, esp with all the cross platform chaos to deal with! #CouchPeloton

Finally made it into the top half of the #8nationstdf comp….

Thanks sprinters..

#CouchPeloton @determined34au still leads #8NationsTDF with 113pts but now @Al____bert is in 2nd and has also reached 100pts. @mufcfaan is in 3rd with 98pts. Both @mufcfaan and @stufromoz scored 28pts tonight.

#CouchPeloton @ashlyferg takes over 1st place of #8NationsTDF with 76pts, @determined34au is close behind in 2nd with 74pts and @robynvh2 is in 3rd with 71pts. @SharpShard and @nsthippo picked up 41pts last night.

Hi #CouchPeloton friends! Nice to see some of you moving away from the sick bird (Twitter). Still trying to get used to the new format, so please bear with me! One tip - follow all the hashtags #FRATL #TrollTips #TDF2023 #sbstdf #8nationstdf

#CouchPeloton what a crazy stage. @ashlyferg and @determined34au lead #8NationsTDF after scoring 45 points tonight. @robynvh2 is in 3rd place with 40 points.

#CouchPeloton here are the #8NationsTDF teams for this year. Please check that I have included your team and that I have correctly selected the riders. Good luck everyone.

#CouchPeloton so that's km 0 so #8NationsTDF is closed. I'll post the teams soon, once I add in the stragglers.

#CouchPeloton I've updated my youth #8NationsTDF to copy @sophoife and make it completely different to the regular one.

#CouchPeloton as an experiment if you want a second #8NationsTDF then try a young riders squad (as per the PCS data on https://www.procyclingstats.com/race/tour-de-france/2023/startlist). And yes Tadej still seems to qualify. Points still based on overall top 10 in each stage.

Still a day to go until the #TDF2023 starts so you have more thinking time for your #8NationsTDF #CouchPeloton but here are the teams so far

According to https://firstcycling.com/race.php?r=9064&y=2023&k=8 there is only UAE left to announce a Giro Donne team so start composing your #7NationsDonne #CouchPeloton Also don't forget #8NationsTDF!

#CouchPeloton it is up to you if you want to do this for #8NationsTDF but as Dman has made this offer on Twitter I will accept Gino as a rider if you wish to do this.

I might yet change it #CouchPeloton but here is my #8NationsTDF squad.
