Transfers for the Giro


TERatcliffe26, April 24, 2011

Rather than being transfers do you go on pick your team instead, as transfers are unlimited? as there is now no transfers tab. Thanks in advance

Just hit pick team and you can wipe your full team and pick anyone who is riding

The one thing i am going to pick up on is, I know you can only pick one sprinter, which is fine because thats the way its set up

But why is Mark Renshaw under as a sprinter? I wanted him and Cav because he is Cav's lead out man and works throughout the day to keep Cav safe, i thought he might have been down as a Domestique or All Rounder

Doesn't Renshaw try the sprint if Cav hasn't made it to the end in the lead group?

True he does sprint, but i wouldn't call him an out and out sprinter?

Also, i just noticed, Basso aint defending his title.

My current team value is 184.2 (and have 1,7 credits left after LBL).
Do I pick my team for the Giro based on this (185,9) or do I pick based on 175 (the "start value")?

Remembering that the 1st stage is a time trail and you can make 2 switches after that, i've gone for my giro team i think can get me points, but switched in 2 riders well known for their TT's

Tried to hold off on my selection for the Giro till the night before. Failed!

To excited and too bored... THough I've been told I've still got a concussion so if my team choice is poor that's why... ahem Thinking
