Im 3rd in CN and 10th overall, thats not bad considering the team I have for these two races is more roubaix focused than Flanders.

Cancellara, Boonen, Huschovd, Flecha better restore the status quo for me in Roubaix or Im screwed. 3 Rabobanks and 3 other sky (thomas, hayman, stannard) as emergancy back up.

just gutted I didnt have Nuyens, he was in my draft lineup and got dropped for quinziato :/

I am expecting a big points haul next weekend that pushes me up into the top 3 or 4

3 of the forum in the top 10 overall.

Next week could be interesting, only me and john b in the top ten have cancellara, huschovd, and boonen. That would be a very helpful podium.

hmmm...your gonna lose to me sir. Just sayin'!

u mad?!

ak-zaaf and I both have Chainel, which I think will pay off for Roubaix, just my gut feeling. He didn't pick Thor though!

Hausler is going to cost you ak-zaaf!

I have those 3, but I'm position 18 in the main league so maybe i can move up again. If Boom and Langeveld get a good position that would be nice also.

just hoping for a top 20 overall or hang onto my position.

They got the results updated really quickly today. I managed to put together a team of 12 that all started the race but only 4 finished:(

I think picking for Ardennes will involve even more luck and randomness because there are so many people who can potentially earn points. There might be some riders who are undervalued though.

TSF, I support your podium bid. I'd carry your water bottle if I could:)

I think in the ardennes its going to be about breakaway points.

My tactic will be a couple of big favourites (that everyone will pick anyway) and then maybe whittling it down to 3 teams that dont have big favourites in them, and from those three teams, taking out the pure domestiques to try and find the breakaway riders. Going to be tough.

Im amazed i moved up after todays crazy results.

Im actually a net 4th in the cn forum league if you deduct 10% of my points for the premium team.

Well I realized that after Montespachi... this is my first time playing velogames.com and well after realizing that in every race I try to choose ppl who can possibly be in the early break...

wow... I'm 12th overall... but Dim I'll quit my GC position for trying to pace you over the mountains! ;)

P.S: wow... I haven't noticed that I'm leading TeamSkyFans minileague... for 1 point! I'm pretty lucky :D

Team Tesla FTW!!!

That's cheating.
This thread should be moved to the clinic now and I want my first place back :D

Its open for team changes again.

Can I move up from 4th.

Have spent 2 hours doing my team, and its a monster. All twelve riders are expected to ride both races and all 12 riders have past form at both Amstel and Fleche. Im mildly optimistic.

The rest of us have to do it for all 3 races.
Will be relying on Katusha after all :D

ive based mine on all three. The team Ive got should be up there in all of them. (Now they will probably fail completely). I would be shocked if I did not have the race winner in my team.

My only concern is how much of a mistake I have made not having cunego. I have both Schlecks, not sure wether to take one out and put Cunego in.

Im hoping the top 3 forget to change their teams from Roubaix.
The guy in 1st has been solid in all four races, guy in 2nd had a good flanders and the rest was average so he is beatable, the guy in 3rd is the big threat, he missed san remo but has finished top 35 every week since then. Seriously tight from 2nd to 20th though.
 
CAS isn't on the list?

Oh Phil isn't doing FW, maybe he isn't the best pick for captain. At the moment my vc is Evens but will change that if is out of L-B-L..

I guess there isn't anyone who is guaranteed to top10 in all 3, so two of three is good enough.

Well my Cunego dillema has been sorted, Evans Injured so straight swap.

Im a bit dissapointed that Horner isnt doing Amstel. Hes in good form at the minute and was pretty cheap, but only one race to be had from him.
