Frosty Posted July 3, 2015 Share Hi Gerald, Sorry another question. Can I sub a guy twice? So for eg have in in my team for the first week then remove him on first rest day and then bring him back on the second rest day to do the last week?No, only once.

Long Wheel Base Posted July 3, 2015 Share No, only once.Yes sorry saw that after I sent. HMM it gets more involved now. My desk is full of A4 paper with notes on riders and rest days and stages and dates. So glad my workload is low today otherwise I wouldn't be able to do that work as this takes preference!

Frosty Posted July 3, 2015 Share I know the scoring better than most and I'm not sure of the perfect combination. I am testing various combinations this year to see which yields the best results: 9x GC9x Sprinters (some punchers included)9x breakaway riders (that's not even known)9x normal picks (which is my team submitted for the comp, although no prizes for me). If you want send me a PM with you alternative picks and I'll run it with these. Don't worry, has nothing to do with the comp and won't be revealed until after the Tour is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry, has nothing to do with the comp and won't be revealed until after the Tour is over. I spent almost an hour reading the rules trying to see what the perfect combo was (weighted towards climbers or sprinters or GC). Could not find a loophole to punch through. I think you have it perfectly covered at the best fluke wins (because of points for breakaway, most aggressive, lantern rouge etc.) Long Wheel Base and Frosty 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cav' Posted July 3, 2015 Share Of the 4 jerseys, for me there's 1 jersey that is not worth going after (I only have 1 rider in my starting line up for that competition).You don't really have a choiceSeeing as you pick 9 riders.And I'm assuming that you're referring to the KOM.

Cav' Posted July 3, 2015 Share I'm beginning to think I have to many puncheurs in my team  (and that excludes Sagan who I didn't pick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
