Hm could someone turn that Giro Rosa list up-side-down. It doesn't look like the first Lady race for my team.
Could I really end up first and then last on these first two lady races ?
Amazing achievement

Just goes to show that most of us simply went "eeny meeny miny mo" to pick the majority of our riders
At least there are less than 25 entrants so even if you finish last you'll pick up some points to continue your impressive run. You're the only player whose scored points in every race so far this season, which is an achievement in itself

Already looks like I've made eight bad picks for my Tour team And then there's Sagan to save something, but that will for sure not be a proper points haul for me. Then I'll need a lot of breakaway luck.
At least it looks like I will get something from the Giro Rosa, where my team looks decent for a good run, though, there are still six stages left. |

Best day on Le Tour ever with 1,2,3,4,10 sends me to the top of the league.
After Valverde's departure the team are looking for stage wins

I didn't know that, guess I am a lucky devil. I only kept track of having 3 stage wins (counting that last one in 2016), which I think is lucky enough.
To boot I even picked a lady who didn't even start I think. Thalita de Jong robbed me of a place for 10 which I could have used better.
How did Velogames even have her in their lineups so close to the race, hours before I think. Well I guess I would have picked another sorry excuse, that's life .

My 4-point man Guillaume died an honorable death today, but I was counting on him to do this at least once this year. After all Wanty was a surprise invite and this guy followed his teammates in breakaways in every stage so far.
It was indeed a lonely day for him

Oh, I have Izaguirre as well, at least Trentin did well.
Silver lining
That's a run of 22 consecutive GT finishes between Izagirre and Valverde put to an end (almost exclusively in the top 10 for Valverde). So much for playing percentages and going for the bankers. Wonder if I even have the power to curse Sagan...
Rule number 1 - don't tempt fate.
3 reliable "bankers" done and dusted, the race is worse off without them and some nasty injuries too Hope everyone heals up fast.

Well, I could say that it was my fault that I picked Sagan. I'm not picking him and he always scores crazy amount of points. I picked him twice. Now and in Vuelta 2015 .
Why I had the feeling after picking Sagan/Froome duo that something will happen? |

This time a lot of us have lost 1 or more in the first week, we need a rule to get 10 free points of you get 0 riders to Paris

Not doing great at all but would have done much better if I hadn't swapped Demare for Groenewegen the day before the race started!!!! Hopefully he can get some good placings in the next sprints |

I am leading! Awesome ride by Aru today. With Kittel and Demare and maybe even Selig it looks good for me in the sprint stages.. Sadly we lost quite a lot of quality riders in the first week.. |

Contador, Aru, Yates and Bardet looking good for top 10's this year. Chaves is my only disappointment. Hopefully he'll go for stage wins or KOM now.
