Got an awesome team ( i hope ). Laughing at the fact i could get Rujano/ Gadret so cheaply.
Barta and Pinotti have chances ITT wise and Goss i think can get a few good placings- hopefully a stage win.

I have setup a league for my podcast VeloBeats. I am giving a free tshirt and some other stuff out probably for the podium.

Seems much easier to make a good team than in the past. But, for this race with no outright favorites, many stages before the GC men define themselves in the standings, picking the right team is still a shot in the dark

Ugh. I had Phinney and traded him out the other day because I decided I didn't think he would do anything. Why? I have no clue. I stupidly traded Rasmussen out as well for someone on the same team as one of my GC picks hoping to pick up assist points. I still have Thomas, but wow, what foolish changes I made.

I didn't think the fantasy game would allow me to pick a rider who's not even in the race. Obviously I should have checked it myself as a google search shows he's had injury problems lately, but I took Robert Kiserlovski as a just for fun dark horse young rider pick. He cost 8 points. He never started the Giro and he's not listed on velogames as a rider now. But I'm stuck with him. Lame.

Barta wasn't bad at all, was he now ?
Rujano, Gadret and Frank on other hand along Meersmann are looking like flops, but many probably had them too.
Meersmann, Frank and Rujano have failed for me.
Barta, Pinotti and Gadret are solid but are not going as well as i hoped.
If only Goss had contested that stage 9 sprint/ stayed in the race i might have been better.
Kreuziger also did not go as well as expected ( GC wise, so that will let me down ). Basso could come 2nd ( hopefully ).
