We've got one to give away, plus a whole heap of other stuff. And don't forget those tasty Premium prizes.....

Have you registered for road.cc Fantasy Cycling yet? If not, why not? It's tons of fun and a great way to learn about road racing. That's if you're not already an expert, of course. And there's a whole heap of stuff to win too! Including this...

We've teamed up with top distributor Zyro to offer up some great daily prizes for every stage of the Tour de France.

Make sure you're in before the start of the Tour, because the stage prize for the Prologue is a Bryton Rider 50 GPS computer worth £199.99! With a 2.2" colour screen, preloaded maps and ANT+ connectivity it's a great tool for your riding, backed up by Bryton's comprehensive online service. Pick the right guys on 30 June and it could be yours!

I ran a friend's Fantasy team whilst he was away one weekend. It worked quite well, as long as you don't expect me to win the stage for you.

Interesting about stage 1 I agree. do you go for it and choose TTer's or pick for stage 2 onwards?

You have also thrown me as well with the list, as I will be up Snowdon for the last 3 stages of Le tour, however still trying to find a way to make my transfers.

The problem being do you go for the stage win on stage 1, and risk loosing a chance in the overall almost straight away as you will struggle beyond stage 1  39

I'm only going to be around for a few stages as work commitments are taking me away. So not going to win the bike, I like this list as it gives me an idea of what i'd like to win and which stage to target with my team  3
