Fantasy Cycling

It's over in the Giro for me, my misplaced faith in top British riders to score plenty of points.

In other news huge score for @Muddyfox69 in the Portugal League, chapeau.

@rhb To be honest, I hadn't even heard of most of these riders. I just chose them because they had nice strips or fancy names!!!

Beat my "matching surname" strategy by a long way, especially as I started with 8 as a result - although oddly the dns was auto-swapped for a different rider mid race.

4/9 of my Giro riders are out of the race, 3 of them because of Covid.

Nice!

It's certainly adding an extra layer of intrigue.

Here's a snapshot with other riders & teams most likely to withdraw in the coming days.

With Sinkeldam's abandon I have less than half of my team left.

Better to have 3 big hitters than my 5 do littlers though. Konrad for gc is my only hope.

Edit: 4 do littlers, hadn't realised both Thomas's were out, Benjamin withdrawn St.5.

Tight at the top but it's going to be last man standing I think. Almeida my only hope!

Espania anybody?

I'm happy to share the 9 riders I've cursed if that helps others do well. #teamplayer

Bit like Rochdale making the Carabao Cup semis, I finally had a good day, albeit in the fantasy super classico.

I imagine few here will have been able to resist the amazing mullet Archbold would have brought to the table, but sadly he's out due to illness.

3 days into the Vuelta I've nearly got 2/3rds of my 18 day Giro total.

Unlucky for Chaves today.

Languishing second last in the vuelta, rueing my trust in Pinot again

Ah but top of the Giro board!

anyone have any lfgss league links?

So it's this time of the year again. Just put in my team for next weeks Giro. Anyone else joining?

Couldn't find the old leagues so fill your boots with the above. Velogames has been a big part of my life over the last 5 months :(

ASDA assemble.

(finding this one a bit of a challenge to pick)
