Leagues for 2012


fluffchucker, January 16, 2012

As I was unable to find the Leagues I was with last year, namely `North West & IOM' also `Evans Cycles', I have put a Region League in as `HIGH PEAK TRAILS'.

Should there be a limit as to how many leagues we can join?
Joining too many would seem a little pointless with nought to gain.

I joined Evans last year because they were the main backer of the game with the prizes they were giving away

This year it seems to be a spread of different companies putting in prizes, so i dont see a "main sponsor" league

They way i see it, I've set up a league, last year's rival's, for all the guys i used to have banter with on the forum's last year, that includes yourself

I have not set up or joined any other league's as i'll automatically be added to me area league, which was "Scotland - Aberdeen,Highlands & Islands" So once you start scoring you should be put into your area

It is a bit pointless joining lots of leagues unless its leagues set up like mine, where its to keep track and have more banter like last year or your personal friends like you would a fantasy football game Nerd

I wasn't too sure how the leagues were set up as the Road CC is the only I ever joined & I don't do football stuff.

once there's some scores to show, the automatic leagues will appear, namely:

1) overall
2) competition (eg TDU)
3) regional

plus there'll also be

1) purist overall
2) purist competition

for those who shun the notion of transfers...

If I had any friends I'd invite them to my league, but I don't Crying Devil Crying

all my mates dont ride (except the triathletes) the rest play footie and rugby....they all think fantasy cycling is a bit of a joke...i beg to differ of course, and it's something different to think about whilst riding or on the turbo.
the leagues just made it more interesting for me.

bring it on! Big Grin
