    drheaton has kindly agreed to run a ‘pick three…’ comp for the Tour of Britian. Submissions closed now, but rules for reference are:

    1 – Pick three riders from the startlist who are British and ensure that your three riders cost a combined 50 Space Creds 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 Madison-Genesis 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 entries was 11am (BST) Sunday 15 September 2013.

    Anyone have a third-party link to stage profiles? The official ToB website is flipping useless.

    I had considered that, the last day of the ToB is the day of the Worlds TTT but with Wiggins in particular, if he’s leading the race after the ToB ITT he may try and win the race.

    I suppose it all depends how much time they lose on stages 1 and 2.

    It seems Wiggins has been making a thorough recon of all the ToB stages. He may well be looking for the win as a confidence boost before the Worlds ?

    My mistake it is the 25th for the ITT but still a bit close and I’d be surprised if Wiggo and Dowsett weren’t in the Sky and Movistar TTT squads……if they dare take on OPQS?

    I’ve picked them both… :O

    May need a rethink! Thought the ITT was on the 25th, though!?

    Decent spread of riders being picked so far. May have mugged myself not picking Cav, but he’s in my purist (and Wiggo is not) so what the hell.
