I think Adrian Honkisz from CCC has to be activated for the game... At least he's showing on PCS as on the start list..
I've gone for two completely different teams this time. One sprint focused, the other not really.
Colbrelli is 175/1 at the bookies and I am very very tempted to have a couple of quid on him.
Looks tailor-made for Kwia but.......can ge outsprint say Swift if they get to the top of the Berg together,,,,plus is he too callow to take on Valverde.......plus past winners PGand Gasper?
Very open race and I keep hearing Colbrelli?
I'll eat my hat and everyone else's if Gasparotto wins.
Heh heh
I've only gone for 4 riders in both standard and purist, with 5 changes.
Slagter's a good shout as a dark horse
Between Kwia & Valverde for me (though only Valverde features in both my standard and purist). Slagter's my outside shout.
He's done it before, but with the change to the finish, it'll give people a chance to come right back at him
It could but he has done it before.
Then again I had Kristoff last week and Gallopin for Flanders...
Hmmm I have a fiver each way on J Rod so count him out
Moreno and Kolobnev might be better options for the day--1.8 km of flat after the Cauberg could be a bridge to far for Purito.
Well there you go.
here you go

Present for you enrique
Inside this zip file, you will find a word document, with ALL the world tour teams and names listed by the UCI.
You can go through the game and find those that are wrong. Then get back to me with a list
riders.zip
Your a glutton for punishment mate
Can you upload the latest rider list from the game, too, so I can compare the two and tell you which riders names are different and organize them by the type of discrepancy?
Enrique-before you go on about the spelling of riders names again-how about you fix your own mispelling in the thread title...
Done. Now I'm off to the Rider Names thread to post a few more I found. Nice last name, any relationship to the Fort?
Thanks! 
Yeah, sorry, I haven't updated the names. Dave took myself, Dr and TER to the south of France for a weeks relaxation without the mention of cycling or enrique.
It was BLISS
Good to see our 10 pound is going to good use, instead of correct time closures, yth pts advertised when they don't actully count..
