My team is based on riders from Australia and USA. Lol. Would be interesting to compare our teams at the end of the season.Geraint Too Fast said:>
5 South Americans, 1 African, the rest are all European (only 3 Italians though). No Aussies for the first time ever (even though there were plenty of tempting options), so I'm not expecting a flying start.
skidmark said:Hi guys, just an update - I'm swamped with messages here over the last day. I'm trying to get them as best I can with my limited and slow internet, but some of them I might not get to until a few hours to go before the revision deadline. Also, just glancing through my two full pages of inbox, it looks like there are a lot of people who sent revisions. I won't open those until after I've gotten to the new submissions - basically, if you made changes and it made your team over the limit, I won't get to it in time and you'll have to go with your last acceptable team. If I haven't gotten back to you directly, look at the second post of this thread for the most updated list of teams. I have gotten almost all the messages over 8 hours old, but might not get much past that today.
Anyway, looks like, from a quick count, we'll be at about 125-130 teams, so comparable to last year. Thanks everyone! Can't wait to start talking about it.
Did you double up on Porte?Ferminal said:skidmark said:Hi guys, just an update - I'm swamped with messages here over the last day.

Thanks again for your work skids... 40 hours or so until first points.

Haha - good ***. I actually think he could be a good pick.Ferminal said:Double up? Think I picked him 5 times lol
Hmmm 4. 2012, 2015*, 2017, 2018 IIRC.
Interesting, indeed. I think Moscon will be quite popular, regardless of the UCI being on his ***. I think it's a risk many are willing to take.Karaev1 said:I am also very curious how rare a certain Italian rider will be.(he is my third most expensive guy) Can't wait for the team reveal!

Or not. I believe he has achieved all his goals last year and I am afraid there is not much space to grow left. He is the same type of rider as Tejay, and I hope he wont have the same fate, key point is not to have GT ambitions.Netserk said:Ala is the most solid of the three. Moscon's range is wide, he could explode.
