    Starts on Tuesday – Profile looks not a million miles away from Tour of California minus TT (first 4 stages could all be sprint finishes but a couple do have hills, 5 is craggy, 6 is a brute, 7 short and flat). I just picked my team and had 43.4 credits left over! Who’s going for this? Or is it just an unwelcome distraction?

    stage 6 looks genuinely awful, there’s not a metre of flat road in it judging by the profile. just those two categorised hills five times each plus another one that’s not categorised, five times. fifteen climbs of 200-400m a pop.

    Sounds like loads of breakaways points :”(

    I think it’s probably an unwelcome distraction and takes away from the TdF which should be the main focus of the fantasy comp.

    I didn’t really enjoy the ToC because I was still competing in the Giro but I guess if the TdF is a write off for you then the ToP could be fun. Personally my ToP team will be thrown together at the last minute and will be considerably less well planned than my TdF team.

    There’s going to be a lot of shelling out the back I guess on those days.
