I think Froome will try a lot in the next days, but will not be able to pass Porte. I picked both, perhaps a mistake.
To my own surprise I seem to lead with my lady team, having next to no knowledge on women cycling. Hurray. Let's keep that lead, girls!
Suisse is a hard one to pick, yes, but I think lot of riders have been given too wrong values here. Time will tell, and especially it's hard to decide whether to pick the strong sprinters or breakawayers. |

Good to see the Giro winner here but I have my doubts on how deep he will want to go. My team didn't even come to 100 points 
I wasn't the only one! It is pretty hard to get to 100cr team if you don't take one of the 24 boys. I don't see Dumoulin going full gas again and then 24cr is way to expensive. 2 12 guys can score more in my opinion. Sagan has like 2 chances to score points and 24 credits is way too expensive for that. So I skipped both! BMC and Movistar are a real pain in the arse though. Who will lead.. who will lead...??? |

Why there is no GVA?  He should take part in this race.
There is GVA, for 8 points  .

Nah, it's not that hard. To be honest it's a first time ever I picked my team and then didn't change anything  .

Now mates I am embarressed to be sure,
screaming knowing nothing (almost) of lady cycling.
Throwing together a team for OVO Energy and then at this morning checking up. Lord and behold I am in FIRST place in our league. STUNNING......
Beside the fact that my star rider Lizzie Armitstead (OK Deignen now) is doing shit.
The other ongoing races are going worse than ever. The world moves in strange ways indeed.
How shall any comments from me be taken ever again. 
Hm then I always was a man for the ladies

Finishing second last in the Dauphine league, which I apparently 'follow'. Finishing 7th in the Women's Tour league, which I know next to nothing about

Feel i held up my end in the Womens Tour game. Hadn't played a velogames in something like 18months or more so quite happy getting a good result.
Deignan was a let down and i put her in at the last moment over Van der Breggen but i wasn't convinced on either. Should have stuck to my head and put in Gillow and Roy or Ludwig who i had pre-race as well, but no i had to spend all my points like an idiot

I was the leading the Daily league for a while, but with Kirsten Wild dissapearing from the startlist and Vos crashing out it quickly went downhill. |

League Table updated with the Dauphine and Women's Tour.
Clamel has closed the gap on Ian Russell to 22 so we might have an exiting run in this year. Purepasd also recovered well at the womens tour after falling behind the leaders by scoring 0 at the Giro and Dauphine. He is 32 off the lead.
Congrats to Strydz who defended his Dauphine crown from 2016.

Yeah, and I who spoke against the Women race. Ashamed to be sure.
Then even noticed that it was my THIRD individual race victory, joining Strydz at the top, even toppling the marvellous IanRussell (that has 2).

Damn, 2nd place in Tour de Suisse. Close to getting my "stage win", which is my goal for the year (as I'm never able to remember/have time to enter every race, so the overall is out of the question).

League table updated.
Ian and Clamel picked up 2 & 3 points respectively so a good chance for others to catch up. Biggest winners were Ember & Champion Gargatouf. Biggest loser was Purepasd who was the only player in the top 8/9 of the leaderboard not to score points.
Up next is the big one. Lots of points to play for so the leaderboard could be in for a real shale up over the next month.

Wow!!! Didn't expect to win this one as I took a bit of a risk and went for Sagan and GC contenders only. Didn't select Dennis, Matthews or Albasini who I thought would do well and who I thought of selecting, but was very lucky that the majority of my GC contenders did extremely well. |

Congrats to all the winners! Roll on the circus that is the Tour. Hopefully my Velogames form picks up, put my chances as similar to Voeckler this summer.
