betaboy Posted January 19, 2015 Posted January 19, 2015 Well it had to happen! It's been a long road and finally a true SA team will fly the flag, guys got one bit of advice for you, take this chance with both hands! Just look back in history when 7-eleven entered the fray! We can do the same, nobody ever thought the yanks could do it back then. A big shout out has to go to Mr. Ryder, for slogging it out over the last few years and keeping the right people on board this dream, cause it truly is! I've stood under the Arc and seen these lads come to Paris, but the cherry on the cake this time round would be to see local lads done good!
Wez-O Posted January 22, 2015 Posted January 22, 2015 So who all is going to the Alps stages this year? Let form a mountain gang armed with Saffa flags and beer!

Frosty Posted February 27, 2015 Author Posted February 27, 2015 I'm looking forward to this, as I've made a number of changes to the scoring system for the fantasy competition, to make it more rewarding for picked riders in the break, successful breakaways that stay away, and more... 5 minutes to the startExciting news to be announced SOON regarding thehubsa Fantasy competition. New revised scoring format sorted, tested and (almost) ready to go.Trying to keep it more exciting for everyone for as long as possible - and with today's announcement that Astana might lose it's licence... lots of speculation in store for the next few weeks/months. If you want to sponsor prizes, big or small, please send me a PM.
Rider3000 Posted February 27, 2015 Posted February 27, 2015 If any hubbers are going to the alpe D'huez stage and have a spare place... let me know please ! Would love to go there again and hit that climb harder!!!

Was looking at an organised tour where everything is taken care of but starting to think of hiring a motorhome in Amsterdam and going for the whole 3 weeks of the tour. I like the idea of doing the all the climbs rather than having to fit in with a time table. Just need a driver for those days a loop is not possible. Got a spare place or two too.
