I remember that day very well. The reaction on the thread after your name came out in a lucky draw.

 

There were so many non-regulars winning daily prizes that year.

last year I researched almost every bloody rider.. I ended up almost last.. this year it will be chosen with my heart not brain.. cause clearly my brain is useless.

Yeah we were neck and neck the two of us for most of the competition. Think we choose 95% of the same riders. This year I'll do it different, maybe add a few riders I hate in my team.

I will try , but work kept me to busy this year and not sure who is still riding and who not.

But will definitely have Lance in my team.

Do we have rule book and points allocation system available?

2015 race I scored lots of point with breakaway riders..but wasn't it changed last year.?

 

We'll make this available tomorrow.

I'll just say this *once

 

I hate the concept of substitute riders.... wtflip it should be 9 riders only, no second chances in Le Tour

 

*TC Apply

I need to read the rules this year. Best I ever did was 7th two years ago. Used the same criteria to choose last years team and finished way back in the bunch.

Yeah but they changed the setup last year. I was also undone by that and was also just hanging on at the back

Suggestion from me... study the rules (once available) and how to earn points.

 

The summary I saw a few weeks back is definitely not the same as last year. Not totally new, but missing a few area in which to score points.

Hi Hubbers,

As promised, here is an early look at the points breakdown for the 2017 Fantasy Tour. We'll release all details and open up rider selections on Monday, but this should let you do some strategising over the weekend.

It's very similar to what Gerald had set up for 2016. We have trimmed some of the points allocations and simplified the system slightly.

We tested this against last year's competition and found that the outcomes were the same. Although the gross points each person scored dropped by around 25%, the finishing positions and outcome of the league remained the same.

Good luck with the planning  :thumbup: 

And a big thanks to Gerald for his input in creating this over the many years. No pressure on us  :whistling:
