Strade Bianche
sorry if I am being useless but cannot see team Bardiani Valvole in this game? 
The riders from this team are labeled (COG) 
Some of the teams still have last years references. Look for people listed under COG, they should be who you're looking for.
Now Spartacus or Sagan? Italians or Low countries, the possibles seem endless and whittling it down is not easy, also an Aussie I want to fit in? oh and those two young Yanks as well, Can I have 12 in my team for this race please?

My idea of a one-two to be honest!!
I thought it was today so made my transfers last night - hopefully no-one drops out! Yeah, Spartacus and Sagan are in, in fact its one of those rare occasions when I look at my team after I've picked it and feel genuinely happy with it. Which can only mean one thing...

And the Aussie
Left him alone at the moment 
Id have to axe his belgium team mate and Santambrogio to get him in
I think the Aussie needs to go in, he needs some luving Sagan could get left out as he didn't show in this event last year. My Italians look good though!
I think the Aussie needs to go in, he needs some luving
yes but sagan finished it last year the Aussie didn't
Gone for Sagan, Spartacus and Cuddles
I want them; but I want how green was my valley too
Ive gone for the swede, and ignored the aussie. i presume you mean the welsh cyclist who rides under an aussie flag. Hopefully few have gone swedish, and I get a big lead when he wins.

Toying with the Swede, at the moment I am taking a big gamble and leaving out Sagan, but I might change my mind before I go to bed. 
My team has been set for a while and i'm not going to look at it again until the race starts or i get an email saying one of my riders has dropped out.
Sitting at the mo sorting my prologue team for Paris Nice. The standard team is not to bad but getting the balance right for the purist team is a right pain 
Stumpy
Going to experiment with my purist team and go for stage wins...... 
Can I have a 10 man team for this race?
Gasparotto's out?
Gasparotto's out?
Where did you hear that mate ? He's still listed in my team.

probably not greyed out on the site as he's due to ride Roma Maxima?
He's not listed on Cycling Fever.
Cycling fever appears to have been updated last around half 6 so I'm not sure the game will have caught up yet.
He is out of Roma too.....as he is now riding Paris-Nice
Well that helps. I can replace him with someone else I wanted in.
Don't buy upgrades. Ride up grades.
Gasparotto's out?

Good chance of the stage win there...
Looking good Alan at least 40 points more than Billy for you so far

2,3,4,6,8,16. I was expecting a lot less with 10km to go.
1,2,4,6,13,16. happy with that
2,3,4,14,16,18 could have been better
2, 6, 13, 16, 18. Poor.
Don't buy upgrades. Ride up grades.
1,2,3,6,8 + 18
Standard 2,3,4,6,7,8. Purist 2,6,8,12,13. No Moser so pretty good considering that.
2,3,4 and 16 on my standard and 2,3 and 16 on purist.
Could have been better but never mind
Stumpy
I don't know what I am going to score, having missed the cut off....
Just about to go do the scores now if I can find them, then remove the riders. So only the Roma are left
Gutted Moser is gonna cost me, that now puts you massively ahead of me Alan, and you should top this comp now.
Just 2,3,4,6,8,18 for me If I stay in the top 50 now id have been lucky
2,4,8,13,16 for my purist team so it could loose big ground too as im targeting the overall for that
Is there any news on an update?
Full result on UCI site... if anyone had Fabio Aru, he came 20th

Anything can happen in these races, not counting my chickens yet. Next race a lot more unpredictable having not been raced for a while. Happy to be leading a comp though, even a small one
Ive Just made 7 changes to my team, managed to stay 14th and 2nd place is defo still within my grasp. Like you say this race could be a bit more unpredictable but we shall see.
Only got 7 riders as Gasparatto and Betancurt out and they were my bankers! Not feeling that confident!

To Nibble or not to Nibble may well be the defining feature tomorrow in the Maxima?

For what it's worth I've Nibbled!
Hey Alan, looking at the East Anglia league. Can we agree that you can give me some tips for picking a standard team and I can give you some tips for picking a purist team.
philip unwin
