Gen Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 Damn. I've Lost Cav, Sagan, Porte, GT and now Majke. I'm down to a 7 man outfit.5 down..ouch Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
TALUS Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 I had to leave Quintana, Meintjies or Pinot on the bench. Hard decision because they are all competing for the biggest underachiever of the tour award. In the end I left Pinot out. I think he is about a solo team now...
TALUS Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 I have been carrying Cummings all this time. Surely he must be bored at the back and ready to go long. GvA giving a masterclass will also be appreciated.
Bonus Posted July 10, 2017 Posted July 10, 2017 Just updated mine. No thought required - I had no choice. At least I have 9 riders again . . . just about.
HeadDown Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Who would have thought Cavendish, Sagan, Porte, Majka and Valverde would be out after a week? Not me, otherwise I wouldn't have picked them for my broken little team.
Vetplant Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 I have been carrying Cummings all this time. Surely he must be bored at the back and ready to go long. GvA giving a masterclass will also be appreciated.Rough Prediction of where Cummings has a shot: Stage 10 - Sprint Finish - KittelStage 11 - Sprint finish - KittelStage 12 - Bunch of tough climbs, GC facourites should take the stage or a climber from an earlier breakaway to pip them by a couple of seconds - lets say Romain BardetStage 13 - Bunch of climbs, probably good for a breakaway, but not ideal for CummingsStage 14 - Following two hard climbing days. Not Flat enough for the sprinters, not steep enough for the GC guys and climbers - This for me has Cummings written all over it.
Patchelicious Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 I wasnt too bothered with reading that considering I have done it since it first came out and I dont recall it working like that before.My league was wrecked after day2 already so Im past the point of caring.I would suggest you go read your insurance policy schedules, before it comes claim time ????

Jewbacca Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 He's been sporting shortish socks for the last few stages, unless that changes, don't expect fireworks #FreeWattsHe has been saving himself for stage 14... also giving the British national jersey loads of TV time whenever they pan to the back of the peloton to show the guys being dropped, there he is right next to Berto....
Christofison Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Four of the top 20 haven't cleaned up their teams yet. TrekSA in third, A3 Arrows in fifth, CWC Online in 13th and Legends of Lena in 20th. All four of them have 4 active riders who are out of the tour. Good news for the rest of us I guess.
solo65 Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Majka out leaves me with only 7. 17 witdrawls and 5 are from my team - what are the chances of that?
TALUS Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 Majka out leaves me with only 7. 17 witdrawls and 5 are from my team - what are the chances of that?I hope you arent into gambling much.
Patchelicious Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 I hope you arent into gambling much.Well imagine he put some cash on picking 5/17 DNFs in the first week. ????????????

Cav... outSagan... outPorte... outMajka... out Majka out leaves me with only 7. 17 witdrawls and 5 are from my team - what are the chances of that? I feel everybody's pain hope we still have a few guys left come Paris!!! At least I am not in contention...LOL...those first 10-20 teams are surely kakking themselves if any extra Jersey contenders abandon this year it might be whoever has 3 or 4 guys left in their teams at the end who win... Let's hope the next 2 weeks all the guys remaining reach Paris without any glitches
s14phoenix Posted July 11, 2017 Posted July 11, 2017 I am lucky... only 2 out on my team... problem is that the rest are not scoring points...
