Entered!

Haven't been following much recently, but yadda yadda.

If I beat @amey I'll be happy.

Sivakov making friends with the tarmac :-(

Velogames scores are up. If I'd gone with my often used "Surnames that are first names" squad Kristoff would've been in there. I have tried to do it properly this year instead.

Hmmmm.... ;)

@Klar number 1!

I’ve had a shocker

@Pifko has the best name, made me chuckle.

Is there some benefit to not using all of the credits?

Having the team you want?

Yeah, fair enough. Just wondered if it'll affect ranking, like, if 2 people have the same score 🤷🏾‍♀️

TJ what are you doing to me!

ok, so far I am pretty much the latern rouge in both leagues, I participate. I initially thought I just choose some riders for fun, but now I am getting a bit nervous and really hope for things to get mixed up once we got some proper mountains.. Buchmann and Pinot need to win the next two stages..

My late choice to switch out Adam Yates for Dani Martinez is not, it has to be said, paying dividends.

Standings after first rest day. As GC & Green battles develop can see there being changes.

For me, 4 reasonably heavy scoring riders offset by 5 who have been pretty anonymous so far = mid table.

I’ve been terrible. I would t be so bothered if my brother didn’t have rice my tally

I was doing ok until Pogocar started earning points.
I banked on Pinot and Dumoulin being top 10

Pinot off the back today already

Aaand 3 FDJ riders down

I'm in free fall. Only a Phoenix rising effort from Bernal can save from the bottom spot I reckon.

^ fall slowed by Sagan & Pedersen 4th & 5th today.

Looks to be 5 teams fighting for the overall as we go into the 3rd week.

Despite their efforts yesterday I got miserly points from Dumoulin & G.Bennett which shows it's not good to offset one teams gc rider with anothers Mountain shepherds.

How's the other league looking?

3 of my riders in todays break, hopefully some points on the way.

Go Gustavo!

my team is currently ranked 13183 of 13428 overall.. I am still waiting for Pinot and Buchmann to start their tour properly..

I'm midtable on Velogames but top of the 'Official' game's LFGSS league atm.

Edit: Velogames is much harder - different scoring system and more punishing/realistic in that you can't swap out shit/underperfoming/abandoned riders.

Other way round for me. Loitering aimlessly at the bottom of the official game, not much of team tinkerer. However blistering form on velogames currently holding 2nd spot. Breathing right down Gustavo’s neck, in a flagrant breach of social distancing etiquette.
