fun

Some of us, pride ourselves on the knowledge (or not) of which DS from a small pro continental team is going to perform well each race/stage.

Well how about showing how popular your picks were with other players.

Simple scoring system, once the transfer window is closed, go to pick a team. select "all riders" order "popularity", if one of your riders (the are highlighted to make it easy) is in the 1st 12 spots you score 0, for each rider in the 13-25th spot 1 point per rider, for each rider on the 2nd page (25th to 50th) 2 points, 3rd page 3 points, 4th page 4 points etc.

I'm new around these parts, have re-discovered my love of cycling and have been putting my bike to the test, just in time for winter typically!

I'm also an events fundraiser for a local charity, Focus Birmingham. They support people with visual impairments and their carers.

I'm combining the two and organising a Festive Bike Ride on the 12th December. It's nothing too hardcore, just meant to be a bit of fun. It starts and ends in Harborne and you can either do the 14 mile flat route or the 20 mile hilly one.
