    Well its 24 hours before it all kicks off and personally i cant wait. It’s a rilliant early seson race and there are some top riders taking part.

    Fantasy team wise its been a bit of a nightmare working out my purist team, do you go full on climbers and GC boys or sprinkle in a couple of sprinters who can get over the high stuff and hope they are still there at the end but will pick you up points on the flatter stages ?

    I’ve set my team up for stage one proper and discounted the prologue.

    Decisions decisions, all i know is it will be great.

    Looks a bit snowy out there today.

    Vuillermoz crashed and abondoned, he might have been looking at this stage for a win.  A smidge unlucky there Mike.

    Loving Paris-Nice as a fan, hating it for my team

    Really interesting finale that, Bouhanni tried to sit on Matthews’ saddle and got himself DQ’d.

    Looks like Triccky pulled off a good one with Bonifazio, I ended up with 1,3,4,5,6.  So an improvement, but Lobato quit and Kittel was nowhere!

     

    Yep, 1,2,3,4,9,15 will take that!

    1,6,13,17 on my purist which hopefully will keep me top 10 on the FS league plus 1,4,5,6,8 standard. Thought about Griepel but kept Lobato in – doh!

    Thought dq’d riders were always placed last in RR.

    Yesterday the gamble paid off, but the teams has to hold today as well. I am putting my trust in Kittel, but i doubt Demare will be able to pull something similar off today. Lets see, the GC guys stays in; i’m saving the transfers..

    A bit like Condor Andy i’m

    A bit like Condor Andy i’m may regret not putting a rider in my purists, namely Dumoulin.

    Although his replacement, Swift, is doing nicely for me so its not all bad.

    But you did a good job with 1,2,3

    I had 5,7,10,16

    Not so bad for my purist team with 4,5,7,10,12,16,17,19 although none of the big gun sprinters and everyone scoring! For once my purist team got the cheaper riders right with Petit and Vanmarcke

    I had Kristoff, Greipel, Kittel and Lobato who did nothing for me. I’m 4 transfers down as well.

    Really questioning why I didn’t bring Matthews in yesterday…

    Not a good day for me.

    Not a good day for me.

    Picked the wrong rider out of 4, Had the choice of Demare, Swift, Boonen and Lobato, the first 3 placed top 10 and guess who I went for, Lobato!

    Thats my chances in this race over after the number of transfers I already made, was a waste bringing in both Kristoff and Lobato and im already 4 transfers down

    Picked up a 1,2,3 – the rest of my team predictably absent
