The ads are on TV, the team lists are gradually being posted: it's time to start this again. Most of you are familiar with how it goes, just remember that we are down to teams of 8
Team of exactly eight riders If you pick someone who is not riding, I'll replace him with the next cheapest of his team, or the next cheapest in the race if there is not one in his team.
Budget Budget will be 3500 points. If you are over budget, I'll take out the cheapest rider who can be replaced with a cheaper member of his team that will bring you into budget, or the next cheapest in the race if there is not one in his team (first in alphabetical order if two or more meet that definition).
Price of riders
CQ score for 12 months to 19th August, for which the update file that CQ released on Monday 20th will be considered definitive.
There is a dropbox spreadsheet of riders likely to participate and their prices for the game, and a facility for checking the team total.
Submitting your team
By personal message to me, either here or at Velorooms.
Please send the team with names formatted as per CQ. (Surname[space]Forename and nothing else: Spanish/Portuguese names need particular care, as do accents or other diacritics) Please do not include riders' teams and prices. It makes an enormous difference to the efficiency of adding teams. If you use the dropbox spreadsheet it will be a simple copy and paste job.
I have lodged my team with Salvarani (the first person to submit a team).
Deadline
The start of the race, which I believe to be Saturday 25th August at 5:20 pm (CEST, 15:20 UTC)
Scoring
Points issued according to the points tables of CQ (column GT2). Note there are no points issued for the young rider category.
Entries as of mid morning (UK time) Saturday, about 6 hours to go

All teams valid and within budget, except one which has 9 riders so will have its cheapest rider cut: the manager has been sent a message.
Good luck to all.
