Can't wait for the reveal too! One curiosity I have is if you guys also found a WTT team that have a lot of very interesting picks this year? Both high valued and low value riders. I am afraid I ended up having way too many picks from this particular team.

 

[Salvarani]

Ok, i'll reveal nationalities as we wait for the reveal.

BEL 7
GBR 5
GER 4
DEN 3
FRA 3
NED 2
NOR 2
IRL 1
AUS 1
NZL 1
SWE 1

I love that you picked a Swedish rider. Been too long since we had one to even consider.

I have 7 riders from one team. 5 from two others. 4 from a fourth team.

SWE 1

I'm gonna guess Eriksson.
One of them.

 

[Salvarani]

One of them.

I thought of someone else who did really well last season, but sure.

I was only thinking in terms of pro riders.

I have 9 from this team and I considered at least another 4 guys . Also they make up more than 50 % percent of the budget. I guess I will have a favorite team next year!

I also have 7 from one team. Fingers crossed they win all there is to win 🤞🤞

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Come on, people. We all know which underperforming team you're talking about. It's obviously Euskaltel.

 

[Wvv]

Most I have from the same team is 5 riders. Among them my most expensive ones. #teaser

 

[RedheadDane]

You can probably all guess which team I have the most riders from.

Coop Repsol

I have 10 riders from one team. And I considered another two. I didn't even realize that - that's mind-boggling.

 

[repre]

Come on, people. We all know which underperforming team you're talking about. It's obviously Euskaltel.

And that team may not be that great with all organizational losses. I picked quite a few riders from that team, but i am not convinced they will do better than before.

 

[del1962]

If it’s the team I think it is I have 6 from that team and seriously considered more

 

[DJ Sprtsch]

I thought of someone else who did really well last season, but sure.

Yep, I had that one last year, but not in 2025. Would be great if he improved though.

 

[vladimir]

Damn, I have only one rider from Euskaltel...

Organizational losses? Are you talking about the english football team? Cause I don't think that's the team most people have lots of riders from.

 

[Blues in the bottle]

This is the moment of great hope. We are all tied! Enjoy the great reveal.
Good luck to all.
I am beginning to think I went too young; the teams average age is less than 23.
Squash those second thoughts.
Have fun...


Thank you Skidmark

I spent 58% of my budget on riders from one team. My team is that team bascially.

6 out of my 10 most expensive riders are from that team and I have 10 riders from that team in total.

 

[Devil's Elbow]

I have 16 riders combined from 2 teams, including my four most expensive ones. I did briefly considering adding a 17th just to be able to say the majority of my team is from those two teams.

 

[Salvarani]

I had about 9 and 8 riders from two teams... but I reworked my team during the days between Christmas and New Years.

Opted for a different strategy with my first 10-11 picks.

Mind you... I still ended up with 7 and 5 riders, respectively, from these teams.

Good Lord. Just realised have six riders from them as well, though none above 200 points.

Any trolls against this team on the main forum, are about to have a very torrid year,

That is almost impressive!

My most represented team has six guys, then there are three teams with four each. Still seems like one of the less centralized teams based on posts here!

 

[Jumbo Visma Fan :)]

My team is rather unorthodox, and does have a tendency to stay with a few teams, including my two highest ranked riders being on the same team, time will tell if that works…
