    Using one persons performance
    Using one persons performance to judge whether a budget is right or not is nonsense, so much is down to chance like losing Rodriguez and Kittel in week one or Evans not being able to stick with the pace.

    My point stands. If, going into the race, you can pick the top three GC riders plus the best sprinters in one team then the budget is too high.

    Van Baarle

    Until this morning I had Matthews instead of Viviani, after that I dropped Matthews/Malacarne/Chicchi for Zoidl, Cunego and Castaldo. In the end I figured one top sprinter was a better bet than three middling GC prospects and figured Viviani was the better pick.

    Also, 180 credits is way too generous when it comes to picking a purist team. I should not be able to pick the top three GC guys AND the top two sprinters in one team.

    So judging on ur purist teams position can we assume that the 180 budget isn’t as bad as you first thought?

    I honestly think it’s made the game more interesting

    The only doubt that plagues
    The only doubt that plagues me about the Giro is whether Joaquim was in any kind of shape to come close and maybe even beat Quintana… I wish he’d had been able to continue to add drama to the Giro…

    On the slippery slope enrique. Instead of planning my moves, I’m just going to go back to playing by instinct now.

    Are we getting 3 trades for some stages?
    Or do maybe we get 2 trades every day, even if it is a rest day?

    Correct an extra 2 transfers on a rest day
