Does what it says on the tin

Definitely harder for me. 6 riders and 100 points. The top 3-4 guys will already bring you over 100 points

 

[Midnightfright]

My knowledge on cyclocross is limited still it will make watching it more fun and I'm going to pick someone I know nothing about to make cheering for them more intresting.

 

[sublimit]

I know next to nothing about cross. so might have a go at this and learn some more about it and the riders.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

Im in. Epic that they have cx.

I <3 cx

 

[luckyboy]

Me too. Should be interesting.

 

[Timmy-loves-Rabo]

wasn't easy. but i think i have a decent team.

 

[will10]

awesome, i've been waiting for a game like this for years! doing my team now.

 

[sublimit]

Ok I've done my team but wont announce the lineup because I dont want to give away any hints or secrets.. not that I know what the hell I'm doing.

Some familiar Euro riders - kind of but the Americans I have no idea about. Apparently you get 16 transfers through the season.. I'll probably need every one of them..

theyve added prizes as well. Cyclocross magazine subscriptions and tyre sets..

 

[AntonioRossi]

3 belgians on my team, this will be kinda interesting

Looks like Pauwels is away on his own with 21 seconds over a group of the main faves I think.

Not overly dissapointed. Had pauwells and Styby and a couple of placings. Only two riders let me down and im 9th in the UK..

 

[AntonioRossi]

I hear ya. I got Lars too

At least we have some transfers

 

[MrMaillot]

I'm happy with my team so far. I know very little about Cyclocross, bar Albert, Stybar, Pauwels and Nys, so I didn't have any Americans in. Done some transfers now though, so DSCX looks like this:

Kevin Pauwels 26
Zdenek Stybar 26
Bart Aernouts 20
Lars van der Haar 12
Justin Lindine 10
Dylan McNicholas 6

 

[sublimit]

Kind of surprised to find I'm going well, Position 2 in the UK standings out of 87. P. 2 in CN.
P. 27 in the main comp.

I had Simunek in my original draft but dropped him which was probably a blunder. I might get him back at some stage but team performing OK though so no complaints.

 

[luckyboy]

Woo, got 1st, 5th, 7th and 8th in Zonhoven today
