I made a ricilious good team with my 100 points.

too easy.

So you should win comfortably then?

Some of the rider prices are a bit low, allowing you to have a sprint star and a gc contender on the same team. But rules are the same for everyone, so will see what happens.

Good to see the "pay" game has been setup as a seperate game as well not included on the league. I will probably have a bash at the 3 day minigames. I see much better over 3 days than 3 weeks.

Thanks!

I have to get all this set up before I leave for most of July. Then I can come back and bask in the glory of my mediocre bottom 1/3 placing in the overall standings. :D I'm getting quite good at it.

Nope, I just thought it was too easy in general.

Still my favorite fantasy game.

I went with guys I like mostly and one person I don't like is in it.

above: I also didn't pick Cav. Not worth it considering there aren't that many complete flat stages.

aka Pickle picked gesink :p
 
Hooray, Samu at 20 points is listed above Gesink at 16. Take that Dutchies:p

They cant know that much about Samu though because they list him as a climber rather than an all rounder while Andrew is an all rounder:confused:

Andrew is much more of a climber than Samu and Samu is much more of an all rounder than Schleck. No idea whats going on there.

Stuff Farrar, I'm picking Feillu as my sprinter. Maybe he'll get in a break or something.

Felliu is one of my favorite riders.

I hope these 3 win a stage at the tour:
Gesink :p
Felliu
Chavanel

:)

No, I first had him, but had too much points and I didn't want to ditch the person I hated :p I even ditched van den Broeck in order for that one person to stay :D

team Feelmore is in!


Harder to pick no I think, because I am not sure if Conti will perform well or not given he has ridden and won the Giro.

picked my team, but not completely happy with it. not sure if EBH, or TJVG or even Velits can get points (they arent in my team) but they can get points
and with RSH having 4 leaders..will be tough to pick the right one

anyone else find themselves not wanting a 2nd all rounder

uhhhf. I find myself with 8 points left needing 1 more allrounder aka 2 points short.

Sucks. I love my team so far (not asin I like them, there are a couple I don't actually care for.)

Yes... I have Tony Martin atm :(

If I didn't have to spend so much there I could pick a decent Climber like Gesink or JVdB.
