Well the most exciting time of the year (in my opinion at least) has finally arrived and with it a new fantasy game: https://www.veloga...2index.php This time you have to select 12 riders with your 100 points and I have to say it is much harder to pick a team for this than any previous years (the points balancing has been done quite well, but there are a couple of definite bargains there). Your team will carry through all of the classics right down to Liege-Bastogne-Liege, but in that time you can make 24 transfers between the 11 races that are covered.
Once again joining the mini league appears to be automated if you already joined either of the previous 2 races. If you haven't then after you have created your team, click on it on the right hand side of the page. Down the bottom of that page it will have an option that says "Join League". Click that. Then enter our league code, 01075739. It will ask you to confirm your entry and make sure that you click confirm, it is quite easy to miss. Also remember to put your forum Username when you put your team in, otherwise we won't know that it is you.
And of course... Didi...

As Avin said, this will be really, really hard. I'll change my team a lot of times before the game starts I think.

24 it's more than enough transfers because the types of races are mostly in order for: sprinters, cobblers and puncheurs. And knowing some riders can do two of those things, I think it's enough.
EDIT: But having 12 riders is a bit more considering the fact that only the first 16 or 20 (except "bonuses" ) finishers score points. I think that if we chose more riders than usual, more riders should score points.

My team:
Cavendish
Cancellara
Degenkolb
Goss
Nocentini
Veuchelen
Bole
Laverde
Marcato
Wijnants
El Fares
Txurruka
Gone for a lead sprinter in Cavendish, a possible late attacker in Cancellera and rest with the break in mind.
EDIT I missed Goss off

Cavendish will suck imo, this years tempo should be hard, i think he will be way back at the Poggio

Hard, 100 points 12 spots and so many great riders. But I think I found some nice bargains. Anyone else can't see a way past Boonen and Cancellara for the early season selections?

On the right where it says Enter Now, click the button and fill out the details. Then click on your team on the right once it is created and you can change it there.

In, and have spotted some nice bargains over there. But, boy, I just don't have time to check the riders, so screw it. |
