GrumpyOldGuy Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 There are 7 Grand Tour winners at the start: Froome, Contador, Nibali, Horner, Valverde, Schleck and the one everyone forgot: Scarponi Scarponi is riding.? He had an aweful Giro, I thought his old butt was toast. Maybe it was more of a training ride then? Well, I have renewed vigour........I am looking forward to see him pace Nibs up some mountain stages, I still say as a younger man he was one of the best climbers in the peleton, sadly he never really got the credit he deserved.
ScottCM Posted July 1, 2014 Author Posted July 1, 2014 Fantasy League Created: http://cycling.udt.c...ted/MyLeagues.j League name: The Hub SA League code: 18986341132101 @Joecools, I’ve started an online hub league through Ultimate Dream Teams - details below. What's good about this one is that you get to make 15 transfers during the tour. Here are the details: Ultimate Dream Teams is finally online with the 2014 TDF Fantasy League . Sign up and enter your team here:http://www.ultimated...asy-league.html A mini league has been set up for hubbers: League name: TheHubSALeague code: 18929198107995 Tombeej did you create a second Hub Fantasy league?

I've got 12 people in my version. I guess we can all just enter both - very easy to join another league. I've now joined Scott's one as well.
tombeej Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 appetizer http://d4nuk0dd6nrma.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/KittelCavendish1.jpg I would be very interested to know from the propeller heads how many Watts Cavendish saves over Rocky due to his body position. Would be interesting to know how many more Watts Kittel pushes out, and how low Cav needs to be to counteract (assuming he can't produce the power that Kittel does). Oh and I've tried to do telephone pole sprints on my own with my chin on my Garmin. Frikkin impossible. I have no idea how Cav can push out max power like that.
ScottCM Posted July 1, 2014 Author Posted July 1, 2014 Is André Greipel also doing the TDF? That would make it even more interesting. EDIT: Stage 1 my money is on Marcel

Cav definitely has aero advantage plus he seems to have another kick when everyone else is at max. However I don't believe he will have it all his own way. Head to head my money is on Kittel. Overall I can't see anyone challenging Sagan for green.

tombeej Posted July 1, 2014 Posted July 1, 2014 Something I'll be watching with interest are the fortunes of Ted King (Cannondale). Such a sad/unfair exit for him so early in the race last year. I was stoked to see that he made the team again. I'll be rooting for him to make it all the way to Paris this year.
