    Okay, so we want to run a season-long compo next year which will take in the three grand tours and some other races too. But which races?

    It’s been suggested that the classics are a good place to start. here’s the classics list off of wikipedia:

    Milan – San Remo (Italy)
    Ronde van Vlaanderen (Belgium)
    Gent–Wevelgem (Belgium)
    Paris–Roubaix (France)
    Amstel Gold Race (Netherlands)
    Flèche Wallonne (Belgium)
    Liège–Bastogne–Liège (Belgium)
    Gent-Wevelgem (Belgium)
    Clásica de San Sebastián (San Sebastian Classic) (Spain)
    Paris–Brussels (France/ Belgium)
    Paris–Tours (France)
    Giro di Lombardia (Italy)

    Others under consideration are:

    Tour Down Under
    Tirreno Adriatico
    Tour of California
    Tour de Suisse
    Dauphiné Libéré
    World Champs

    The idea would be to have a season-long compo with the three grand tours available as a standalone event too. sound good? any more suggestions? the more the merrier.

    Anyhow, I’ve got my team sorted and I’m on par with the road.cc team! It can only go downhill from here, I’m afraid. I’m too dumb for this 😀

    Can’t I leave them out and have a team of 7 or select two more domestiques?

    No. you can pick an inexpensive team leader and climber though, if you like 🙂

    make sure you join our ‘beat the road.cc team’ league too, #6493

    More news on prizes later. They gunna be worth playing for, i can tell you that 🙂

    I don’t really like that I have to pick an expensive team leader and climber for the classics. Can’t I leave them out and have a team of 7 or select two more domestiques?

    When can we start looking at the riders and building our teams?

    Personally, I don’t think we should be able to transfer riders during a stage race – in the real world they can’t.
