    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.

    Definitely – I didn’t pick a DQS rider because of their multiple options – It’s easier when Alaphilippe rides as he is normally top dog (but even he took a team role in Omloop) Would have gone Stybar purely on price if I had picked one. Three in top five is pretty special though

    What always messes me up in

    What always messes me up in these Spring races is the quandary that is Deceuninck-Quick Step.

    I had all three of them & they all underachieved in their own way.One dayers seem to go like that – team looks rock solid on paper & then the race destroys it!

    Wouldn’t of made that much

    Wouldn’t of made that much difference. The three I wanted to bring in were MVDP. SKA, and Kung.

    You never know, sometimes doing nothing is the better option even if it is by accident. I am doing terribly without missing any deadlines!

    Oh hell. I was going to pick him as well before my wine induced brain freeze. Quite a nice outside bet really. Unlucky.

    I shall follow your rule in

    I shall follow your rule in future. I waited late because the game wasn’t updated and didn’t want any nasty surprises. I got one anyway….on what planet are Matthews and Vanmarcke a safer pick than GVA and Stuyven on a course like E3….Ha….Gonna need a good dose of jam today to get away with that.

    I now have a rule of no

    I now have a rule of no transfers after opening the red! Made sure I was up early this morning then discovered we had been granted an extra hour……crazy how the game affects you!

    Did mine after a couple of glasses of red last night. Not sure how I managed to not bring in GVA and Stuyven. Stupid.

    Missed the deadline for E3. Seems I will be finishing nearer last than first in this Spring Classic comp. Always have loved these races, but never seem to do any good in them. Maybe next year.  🙂
