    Ghedebrav

    Just a thought for an off-the-cuff contest for us forum types – each ‘adopt’ a rider currently rated 3.0, and track them through the season. Whichever rider has the highest aggregate fantasy points at the end of the final race of the season wins (or rather, the person who picked them does).

    The deadline for picking has now passed, so here are your riders:

    Ghedebrav: Matej Mohoric
    ray sylvester: Fronk Schleck
    drheaton: Riccardo Zoidl
    NeilG83: Cristophe Kern
    DylanChurchill: Caleb Ewan
    stumps: Michael Hepburn
    Dave Atkinson: Julian Alaphillipe
    livestrongnick: Gabriel Rasch
    enrique: Axel Domont
    JAndrewHill: Janez Brajkovic
    chiv30: Jesse Sergent
    TERatcliffe26: Johan Esteban Chaves Rubio
    giff77: Mikhail Ignatyev
    plynie: Alexander Rybakov
    Gizmo: Rick Zabel
    Twybados: Lasse Norman Hansen
    Timbo13: Sebastian Henao
    chrisdstripes: Pierre-Henri Lecuisinier
    backflipbedlam: Phillip Gaimon
    turboprannet: Michael Kolar
    leortp: Caleb Fairly
    stevemarks: Jasha Sutterlin
    debbieg: Nelson Oliviera
    JohnnyRemo: Dennis Van Winden
    Mikeh789: Nathan Earle
    arkadiak: Campbell Flakemore

    Sergent(chiv30),Kolar(turbopr
    Sergent(chiv30),Kolar(turboprannet),Rasch(livestrongnick),Hepburn(stumps) seem to be the runners and riders for the tour of Qatar…..I’d expect Sergent to go well in the flat short desert TT.

    C.Kern(neilG83),Zoidl(drheaton),Ignatyev(giff77) and Rybakov(plynie) are provisionally down for the TourMed.

    I did say end of TDU
    I did say end of TDU originally, so let’s stick with that. I’ll modify the OP now. Definitely no changing once you’ve picked, sorry enrique.

    Apologies, brain a bit addled between work and baby night feeds at the moment. But yes, now closed.

    I have no problem with new
    I have no problem with new joiners BUT they should be forced to pick someone who has scored no points and is worth 3 credits as at the start of the season.

    Persoanlly that should be it
    Persoanlly that should be it for people joining “unless” they pick someone on zero points and no switching halfway through.

    That’s pretty cool! Now, can people keeep joining? Just choose someone who’s 3.0 right now? Or is that it? Just the people who are already in? How about ‘switching’, if you spot someone who’s 3.0 later in the season, hmmm? 😕

    I can’t believe he’s only 3.0 credits….this guy has top 10 GC’s in grand tours to his name….has worn grand tour leaders jersey’s and yes….won the Criterium De Dauphine in 2010…and can time trial.

    Am I missing something obvious….an impending ban or anything?

    A total lack of racing and form. Just look at Frank Schleck.

    I did…..and picked him!!

    I make it Domont on
    I make it Domont on 28…..9+3+1+8+7(I think the rankings page is showing 29 because of a point carried over from last season in the 12 month rolling year as scored by the site)

    Domont(enrique) 28
    Flakemore(arcadiak) 24
    Domont(enrique) 21
    Ignatyev(giff77) 17
    Alaphillippe(Big Boss Dave Atkinson) 9

    Schleck(ray silvester) 3

    Ghedebrav set a deadline of End of the TDU so…….last chance guys….still some decent riders left including San Luis stage winner Arredondo…..Mederel,Bernaudeau and Pichot who could reasonably be expected tpo feature in the TDF….Young Italian climber Cattaneo etc!!
