I hate this game.

 

I start out all... I know my stuff, I have seen this play out for 5 years, I know who makes the most points, I am going to ROCK this competition. 

 

Then I get to choosing riders, scrolling past the likes of Sagan, Bernal, Froome, Valverde and the plan goes out the window and I am like, oh look, Thomas de Gent, THOMAS DE GENT!!  THOMAS DE GENT!!!! GET IN THERE MY BOI!! BODNAR YOU MONSTER PULL IN!!!!  Bobby Jungels my china, pull through, love it! TIESJ you crazy son of a gun get into the starting line up! TURBO DURBO YOU BEAUT, GET YOUR CHIN IN THE GAME!! Chad Haga I like your short summary tweets you are in!! Taylor Phinney, your sock game is so so good you get a spot. MATTY HAYMAN, MR ZWIFT you Roubaix winner get your cobble over here...

 

Then I am left with 4 subs and put Sagan, Bernal, Rioglic and Gavaria.

 

Then dont log into leaderboard till August...

 

Damn... every time.

Pure Savage is bang on the mark...

 

My first two attempts were so well considered, planned and executed, and best icould do was outside the top 100! :wacko:

 

Last year I went to the casino :thumbup:  :thumbup:  :thumbup: and I climbed through the last week into the top 10 and got a weekly prize courtesy f my wild card selections :w00t: !!!

 

So here we go again - bring it on, and to my wild card selections: "Go you good things!"

 

Cheers BikeHub for running this again this year.

 

9 more sleeps!!!

I managed to time my holiday to coincide with the first week of the Tour. So I can safely make my picks and not worry about being away on the rest day.

 

Thanks Admin & Co., another year of not having to worry about anything.

The key to my success this year will be to skip on selecting Louis... and watch him then have an absolutely spectacular tour 

Is there more than one Louis riding TDF???

The best was the year I had Carlos Betancur, from his spring results he was flying, then he pitched at the tour after having one too many banana breads on the coffee rides. Kudo's to the oke, he shed the weight by the time he got to Paris.

Oh man, this year has some HARD picks.

 

After last year's close call I got so used to thinking I have a road bike that I ended up buying one :)

Sometimes counting your chickens before they hatch is a good thing :)

Thanks Hubboss! Going to be fun again!

 

I hate this game cause, I suck at it. But mostly because I try to choose with my head and not my heart, then I end up cheering for people I don’t like cause they are on my team.

 

Goooo Valverde!!! - it just feels gross, I need to have a shower.
