kjind Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 The key to this years competition is to pick a team that will finish with all 9 riders.
Wez-O Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 I'm hoping for a repeat of the Criterium du Dauphine and Tour de Suisse - a surprise winner that gets away on a stage or two and really puts the cat amongst the pigeons. Good suggestion - and it would work even better across all the categories. However, then it could become like the velogames comp, where you only have 100 credits for riders.Agreed and agreed!

Imploder Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Anyone watch the team presentation last night. Chris Horner was funny - Wish I had him on my team. Just hopes he keeps it rubber side down. Other highlight was Sagan "forget about this TdF stuff, Check out my cool bike, Its Wolverine themed!" LOL

'Dale Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 Friday fact #1Contador - the only rider selected by every person that has entered, so far. This means points scored by him are effectively neutralised and the difference between winning and the rest of the places will come from the remaining 8 riders. Go, 'Berto!!! rouxtjie 1

tombeej Posted July 4, 2014 Posted July 4, 2014 The key to this years competition is to pick a team that will finish with all 9 riders. Nope. The key is how the scoring works. Simply choosing the big GC and sprinters names is not going to get you anywhere with the scoring system Gerald has put in place. There's a secret to it - if you study it

LOL Agreed, CH was good and there are so many riders but only 9...i started with huge team and was damn difficult to scratch names off the list to get the final 9
