You are kidding  .
No way Lizzy Banks had time to fool around with fantasy cycling mate.
Ember is truly on a fantastic role. Top placings (8th) in mens overall (former in the lead), then having the lead in the womens season.
Just WOW.

Did she pick herself? Sounds like insider trading to me
To be fair it's probably good motivation. Her team was probably struggling a bit before stage 8 so she decided she had better win the stage.

Everything points to that it was herself, just check out here Twitter account And as written on the previous page, kind of unfortunate to not pick herself, seeing her win on stage 8 
Looking forward to get this game rolling again with Pologne and the Classics game. Also cool that there are two more women's races coming up to add to the overall. Together with the double points both Spain and the Classics game will give, there will be a lot of points on offer this autumn |

Yep, nearly missed that one. Looks like the deadline is tomorrow afternoon so get your entries in.
It looks as thought the Tour de Pologne and Autumn Classics race will also be starting soon so it could be a busy week or two.

My picks for the Volta a Portugal are as random as for the women's races!

Just did it in a hurry, and I must say it feels like it's a surprisingly young team for a Volta a Portugal team, even with a couple of the obvious usual suspects on board |

Did a rough first draft then totally forgot to check back and verify the startlist etc. Probably the best way, no regrets or what ifs

I missed it. But I do not care since it would be another random team

You'll get autosubs if your selections don't start.

Okay, so we will play with transfers on the Autumn Classics... although we have been upgraded to 36 instead of the usual 24. |

Polongne and the Autumn Classics games are both up and running. As Freitas said, the game is the old style of limited transfers, but the number of transfers has been increased to 36.
The race starts with San Sebastian and the London Classic this weekend and the riders have little hashtags to show you which event they will be riding in over the weekend.
Good Luck All

This Autumn classic will be hell to pick. With many confusing starts in VG lists. Like Lambrecht assigned both in Poland and London, found many more. WTF.
Is it only me that finds the mix of races a lot harder even with increased subs to 36. The first two races have not anything in common of cyclists, so it will be a trick to maybe include London boys in San Seb to avoid some of the subs that is forced to be made in just a days notice. With then 12 riders to fit in for 100 pts makes it extra hard.
This will take all the luck one could muster for sure. I know I will need it.
So best of luck to everyone.

Yeah, the Spring/Autumn classics games with transfers are always a nightmare. It is so much down to luck as well as judgement. There is no way of knowing if a rider you pick for race A will also ride in race B & C. That's why I quite enjoyed the limitless transfer of the spring classics game this year. You didn't need to spend too much time planning because each race was a new game with a total at the end.
Yeah, there are lots of riders on the SanSeb/London start list who also appear on the Poland Start list. I guess you just need to keep you eye on it and keep your fingers crossed.
