Women's Fantasy Races
Ok I know I'm going to get the full wrath of the social justice warriors here ... but is there any need for the women's races to be included in the fantasy league? I appreciate they are brilliant athletes and would whip my backside on a bike but that's not the point, a lot of people don't follow women's racing and that doesn't make you a bad person or less a cycling fan. Plus if you do make the effort and try and research there is not a lot of info on races and start lists. I picked Armitstead for today to get a roster change email at 12:15 to say she's not racing by that time too late to make changes as deadline has passed and that's not a criticism of road.cc just demonstrates difficulties in getting info and yes I know men's racing has late changes etc but it's usually within time to make changes. Anyway am I the only person who feels it's better sticking to the men's elite??

Looks like Specialized dusted off their blueprint for the Tarmac circa 2012-14 to 'create' the Aethos.

2nd and 5th for me too
Make that 1,5,8 out the top 10 for me
2,3 from the top 6 for me. Can't see the result for 7-10 yet
Check out podium cafe results in the fantasy game
Still 2,3 for me. Olds let me down. The others were all 3.0
I'm off the mark in the PC game women's today with 180 points!
2,5,15 plus team bonus
2,3,15 for me.
These bonus stages are still being counted towards the overall leagues, is this able to be fixed?
I'm also wondering what the position is regarding this comp and the overall league. The info definitely says it's a bonus and I didn't pick a team for Strade Bianche based on the earlier comment that the comp would be amended and the scores re-updated, but it looks like that hasn't happened. Fully appreciate that little mistakes like this can happen, but would be good to know so we can at least pick a team for the next race and limit our loses.
Dave will sort it
Oops! Sorry, it's not often I'm right but I'm wrong again. Silly me.
Anyway, the new film 'Fantasy Cycling-The Movie' is about to go into production. Enrique is being played by George Clooney, Dave Atkinson is being played by Hugh Bonneville, Chiv is being played by Brad Pitt and GKam is being played by Charlize Theron. It should be a cracking film!
Gkam being played by Charlize Theron? I think she's going to have to grow a hairy chest to get into character for that one.
The chest is the least of her problems, my hair and beard at the moment are super wild
Nice one , only 5th for me today in podium cafe
I really hope you are joking?
Aussies only wasn't just for Australian citizens, it meant you could only pick a team consisting of aussie riders
Literally just lol'd at that
Allan, that's not correct. The only bonus competition that has been incorrectly added is the Women's Classics. All other bonus stages, including TDU Aussies, have not been added to overall leagues (added up my own scores to confirm). And there is at least one of the top 16 from Australia...
I can't wait for the inevitable love scene between Clooney and Theron...
Clooney plays the dad,the love scene is between Brad Pitt and Charlize Theron.Your out of luck.
Hmmm...
Well, maybe Clooney spanks his daughter for making hot stinky love to Pitt... or maybe it's a tormented incestuous relationship where Clooney is jealous of Pitt... 
2nd and 5th for me
That's a first and fifth so far for me
Strade Bianche
1 Guarnier
2 Armistead
3 Longo Borghini
Nope, He didn't get his prize
Just wondering if Gkam84 (the organiser of the women's competition last year) ever got his prize for winning that competition? I know he complained about not receiving his prize for several months.
i'll check the settings, people. they shouldn't count to the overall, if they currently do then we'll amend and re-update.
Have you got any closer to amending that yet mate? Ive slipped quite a way overall and my scores are still on there for the womens classics
