Apart from the PTP picks is anyone doing a fantasy TdeF? There's one on road.cc that looks quite good and I'm sure there must be others...

    Just wondering if there's a BikeRadar mini league on road.cc.

    Worth setting one up?

    Being thick here but how do I join a league that's already set up?

    Some strange categorisations on there, EBH not listed in green jersey but Nicholas Roche is. Gesink listed as an all rounder etc. :? Think I got some bargains though :wink:

    Click on your team name link in the yellow box then scroll down below your list of riders and there should be a link to join a league

    EDIT: yes, some classifications do seem a bit odd. I was looking for Roche under Domestiques for ages! I have him as a Domestique in the VeloGames one.

    Is there a BikeRadar mini league on Velogames? If so can someone post the league code?
    No-one wanted to eat Patagonia Toothfish so they renamed it Chilean Sea Bass and now it's in danger of over fishing!

    I picked Roche as well on velogames:) I put Zabriskie as my wild card, did any body else?

    Thanks, I went back into the site and it was obvious - it wasn't showing up at first. Is Dan Martin not riding? I couldn't find his name there.

    I'm a little concerned that I didn't manage to spend my whole budget on the road.cc version. Joined the BR league though.

    I think my Velogames team is stronger (especially as there's no messing about with transfers on that one)

    There shouldn't be any transfers allowed after the race starts, the proper teams can't bring anyone in - if your rider crashes it's just tough :wink: I'm also slightly "under budget" on the road.cc version. Not enough to get a 'better' sprinter but there were no better options to use the extra credits on.

    I'm in on velogames (only 7 teams so far??)

    Just to make Neil happy I don't have Bertie C, so I expect to come last, unless my strategy of "weakness in depth" pays off.

    I haven't gone for Cancellara at all. I've only got Bertie in the road.cc version.

    No Contador for me. Basso (and Liquigas generally underpriced?). Does anyone have Evans? I kept thinking about it but just couldn't bring myself to believe it was worth it...

    I had a look at that one, but frankly it looks too much like hard work. One for the really dedicated who like to tinker with there team every day. I mean, a squad of 25? I just want to pick nine riders and let them get on with it.
