Prediction Game

it shouldn't be. Hopefully Merckx makes a new thread today.

Or maybe Strade Bianche

I'm inclined to start with msr again just so it gives everyone enough time to decide whether they want to participate or not. 3 days notice isn't much.

That would be sensible I think. More likely to get more people to play if they know about it well in advance. I know if I missed PN or Tirreno I probably wouldn't bother to join afterwards as I'd already be at a disadvantage.

I'll be in for it, guess I'll read the rules somewhere in this thread .

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

merckx messaged me he didn't have time for this, unfortunately I don't think I do either. If anybody is interested, please take charge.

Thanks to trying to become a participant rather than a fan at a certain sport, I now have 5 weeks off work - what would setting this up entail?

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

not much actually.
Basically just start a thread with the rules - I can help you here if needed. And then just wait for people to send you there entries. Obviously state that the comp. is open.
You'll have a deadline before each race, just post the predictions maybe a few hours before the race.
And just take it from there...

 

[Tuarts]

Alright I'll see what I can do. Were there any new rules or races added? I take it for GT's you just choose certain stages

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

I think what we did was;
stage races - 2stages
GT - 4 stages.
Picking the best stages- i.e zoncolan. I think-if memory serves me right- we usually did a sprint stag, 2 mnt stages and a punchy type stage.

cobblestones made an interesting suggestion with a joker rider, up to you what you wanna do tho.

As for races, I suggest doing mainly the PT races. And maybe one or two others if you really want, again whatever you like.

 

[Tuarts]

May not do a joker, I dont want it too complex, especially if i need to handball this on at a later date. I'll sort out a calendar and start a new thread soon...

Would people be happy starting this with Milan- San Remo or start at G-V as 3 days may not be enough time to prepare?

 

[Havetts]

Awesome, cool that you pick it up Tuarts! I'll be in for this, let us know .
