    last year the overall prize was announced since the beginning, can we have an anticipation about this year overall prize?

    I think a million pounds would be about right. 😀 Certainly an incentive for me to climb up from 1295th!!

    I actually won a Garmin 800 last year on a very similar rival competition: Halfords TdF. B-)

    Embarrassed about my start …. and also a day late!

    i suspect you could get quite a decent bike for what it’d cost to have vicky p come down and hand over your trophy in person 😕

    What could road.cc make with a £3,000 frame , a couple of wheels at £1,000 apiece, SRAM gears, some carbon forks, Shimano Dura ace gears and Ritchey handlebars, stem etc. 😕

    Answer. A pretty nice trophy. :))

    I suggest Victoria Pendleton
    I suggest Victoria Pendleton to present the trophy.

    Although it makes more business sense to bring in the punters for the TdF, a moderate prize of a cycling nature for the overall does seem fair for the amount of effort we put in. Though I wouldn’t object to a trophy as well!!

    I agree – prizes are not
    I agree – prizes are not needed for this game to be fun.

    (I do want/NEED the season long trophy though – so close, yet so far away last year).

    How about a pair of one-off
    How about a pair of one-off socks emblazoned with “Road.cc Fantasy Cycling Legend”, better something you can wear than some lump of metal cluttering up your home. Better yet, stick with cycling prize tradition and offer £1 for every point scored through the season. 😀
