    Hello,

    Following on from the success for the Giro game I'll be running another one for the Tour starting in a couple of weeks.

    The rules are unchanged:

    1 – Pick three riders from the startlist who are French and ensure that your three riders cost a combined 50 credits or less.
    2 – Only riders finishing the race count towards your points total.  If one of your riders abandons mid-race (even during the last stage) then their points won't count towards your total.
    3 – There are no restrictions on picking more than one rider from a particular team, if you want to pick three riders from FDJ feel free.
    4 – Highest combined total wins, if one or more players get the same combined score then the winner will be chosen by a coin toss/random number generator or similar impartial method
    5 – Deadline for entires is 9am (BST) Saturday 29 June 2013.

    Feel free to discuss riders/combinations etc but please try and make your submissions final where possible.  The rosters will likely change significantly between now and the start of the race so don't jump the gun when submitting your team!

    Slight reshuffle at the top but Ghedebrav still out in front. The question is, will Rolland score Philip Unwin enough points to overhaul our leader?

    Clearly, Bardet, Kadri and Rolland are the guys to have along with Chavanel who’s scored well. Pinot on the other hand has been a total bust and Bouhanni dropped out early. It’ll be interesting to see how this plays out over the next few days.

    Gallopin was 7th on stage 7 which gives him a monumental total of 16. You probably just missed the 1.

    Anyone with Sammy Windmill
    Anyone with Sammy Windmill must be doing well: a 6th, 10th and 11th place so far. Chavanel has a 2nd place in the TTT, while Rolland and Kadri have Polka points too.

    Yeah, I have only got the mighty John Gadret left now.
