    The place to share your purist team and discuss how it’s getting on so far. With Cav, Froome & the good value Modolo all out, I’m guessing a few have already taken a hit, while those with Nibali & Sagan are sitting pretty.

    FWIW, my team:

    Sagan
    Kittel
    Machado
    Bardet
    Yates
    Pinot
    Izaguirre
    Oliviera
    Kruijswijk

    I’ve lost Froome but still got all the rest so fingers crossed my others will do all right. Without a main GC man though i cant see me getting anywhere near the top end.

    Utter tripe.

    Ouch! bad luck.

    I thought as I am rubbish at Purist that I would stage hunt.

    Appears I am now stage hunting for the Lanterne Rouge.

    It wasn’t a bad idea and it had occurred to me too as a possibility, but with the sprint stages frontloaded, it seemed most people would have their teams crammed with sprinters at the start anyway.

    Froome out leaves
    Froome out leaves me

    Kittel
    Bardet
    Sagan
    Costa

    and some filling

    Visconti
    Vachon
    Oliviera
    Taaramae

    Currently hovering just outside the top 100, The leaders mostly appear to have Nibali, and if he stays in Yellow for the next week as appears reasonably possible, it is going to be difficult for me to make up much ground.

    Being as though i thought id
    Being as though i thought id made a mistake with Boom, I think in the end my purist team will end up ok apart from the lose of Modolo

    Contador
    Bardet
    JVDB
    Sagan
    Boom
    Visconti
    Voeckler
    Bideau
    (Modolo)

    Having looked at the teams ahead of me in the forum, I could/should gain ground back with the combo of Bardet/Contador/JVDB, and if Boom could get in a break or too as well, ive got a decent chance of doing well.
