Cut off time for going premium
Has a decision been made on the cut off time for going premium during the Giro?
The reason I ask is I'm just wondering whether it will be
a) Stage 1
b) Stage 3 or 4 ish
or c) during the last few stages
Thanks

Darren,
It won't put you at any disadvantage as such. But you won't be able to win the top prize of the bike or the other premium prizes.
Forgive my ignorance, if. I decide not to go premium, will this put me at a disadvantage in the overall competition against those that have, and who will be winning points from the extra races? Again, apologies if this has been asked and answered already
Thanks Dave. Much appreciated.
Excellent, I actually wrote that before you posted your reply
As usual, a very well reasoned decision. It's nice that those running the game think about these things and communicate them with the community. It makes me feel much more included than other games (the fantasy football comes to mind).
Hopefully iy'll be as early as possible. Yes there may be a raft of people who want to sign up towards the end of the Giro who are doing well and want a chance of winning the bike but it'd be unfair against those who've paid up upfront if that is allowed.
precisely so. hence the early cut-off.
Cut off is the end of the first rest day, before the team time trial in Verona. so, 11:59:59 on Tuesday 8 May.
