Comp is now open. 80 transfers for 16 races.

A lot of races aren’t anouncing routes or releasing profiles to limit potential spectators, so be aware, some of this info will be last minute and not as complete as normal. Only quick fire races are this weekend, so don’t forget about Kuurne after Omloop.

Well done Tony, good win..

Well done Tony, good win…and by a distance.

Because it was a last minute

Because it was a last minute change, I didn’t have time to fester over it. Given more time I would probably have talked myself out of it! 

[Dr Winston]

You did well because he’s

You did well because he’s entirely unreliable as a pick…nice.

I think I used up everyone’s

I think I used up everyone’s luck today. Last minute panic to remove Pog which also allowed me to upgrade my 3 mill wildcards. Went Barguil (because he always goes well up that hill), Gaudu and Vansevenant. Have had worse days!

Cheers man, didn’t take it as

Cheers man, didn’t take it as criticism, no worries. I think it was fortunate some people got a little bit of warning and from the sounds of it the tests were false positives and UAE aren’t happy.

Andy, no criticism of you

Andy, no criticism of you intended.  I just didn’t look this morning at anything (websites, Social Media) or I might have picked it up.

You do a good job with startlists and it is possible for all of us to check other sources in the rare event that it is not 100% accurate.

Enjoy your holiday!

I’m away on holiday right now

I’m away on holiday right now, but still got the start list done last night and saw the announcement with 15 mins to go this morning. I’m on a laptop so doing changes is a ball ache, stupid track pad, but I removed UAE as fast as I could.

Could have been worse.  I did

Could have been worse.  I did manage 1,2,3,4 and 6.

With Pogacar and two balancing 3.0s scoring nothing.  Although I am not sure why I took out Hermans who would have scored.

Many will have had my scoring riders though.

Ouch, that is going to hurt.

Ouch, that is going to hurt. Could have been worse if Roglic did not start his sprint from halfway up the Mur! But have to give credit to Alaphilippe, fantastic ride…

[Dr Winston]

Worse…I think Papitagem

Worse…I think Papitagem might have taken out Roglic by mistake instead of Pogacar. He made a second set of transfer taking out Roglic and replacing him with Alaphilippe who he’d already taken out for Pogacar. 

I can’t work that out really…other than a mistake.

[Dr Winston]

Literally five minutes to go

Literally five minutes to go for me. Unbelievably lucky as I just checked for god knows what random reason sat in the traffic this morning. I wanted Schachmann but just had to do the easiest I could. That’s must be the first time I’ve ever checked in the car in a morning as far as I can remember. 

[triccky100]

Bummer. I have pretty missed

Bummer. I have pretty missed all the COVID withdrawals but saw this one with 00 minutes left…managed to just swap the Pog out, would have liked to have changed team around a bit but won’t complain too much!

Same here ?‍♂️

Missed the Pogacar

Missed the Pogacar announcement until now.  Big hole in my team.
