    Given my lowly overall position I think I’ll be throwing a few penalty transfers at my team in order to maximise points each day and hope that keeps me ahead of people sticking to two transfers a day.

    I’m in a very similar position to you and I have a very similar team (just swap Fischer for Bono), but my strategy is very different. I’m going to bank transfers until stage 14 or 15 or 16 (I haven’t decided which yet :?), then have some fun trying to get a stage win in the final week.

    Got a good feeling about Vuillermoz.

    I hope this isn’t one of those stages that everyone swears is going to be a bunch finish but then all the sprinters roll in half an hour behind, blown apart by hills that nobody noticed before/a headwind/Cannondale.

    Who’s good at echelons?

    I’m not stage-hunting, just looking for a respectable overall position (and maybe some badges!)

    Made a couple of penalty transfers yesterday (annoyingly one of my riders pulled out, so it was one more pen than I’d have liked) and will be making one further penalty each day for the next couple of days.

    TBH if I was stage-hunting, I wouldn’t be doing it on the ITT as lots of other folks will have the same idea.

    Stage 14 might be a good target, though 😉

    On the Fantasy Cycling page click stages and a list of the current stages and transfer deadlines appears :B

    6 tranfers for me, gone all in on the sprint. Had a shocking first week and well outside the top 200, need to be aggresive if I want to make my way back up into the top 100.

    Closing in on top 50 so will try to consolidate this week and contemplate some risks in the Alps!

    Three sprinters in today, but kept Froome for tomorrow. (Could’ve swapped for Sagan/Greipel but would mean an extra 20 penalty points tomorrow)

    Looks like a long coastal run-in so fingers crossed the right guys stay clear of trouble…

    Froome
    Cav
    Kittel
    Kristoff
    Nieve
    Hoogerland/Le Mevel/Muravyev/El Fares

    Watch out for the early deadline tomorrow peeps! (sorry to be a spoilsport if anyone was keeping that under their hats…)
