    I'm such a sad b'stard that I have just spent the last 15 minutes marvelling at the mechanics of Duck's spreadsheet.
    And pressing ctrl-R until I got a rider I fancied.

    I watched it refreshing.... There was a pause when Sagan came up.... Until you saw that it was Juraj :-D

    It's a bloody marvellous contraption.

    13-8 please

    Not a legal pick.
    1-25 and 1-7 are the number ranges. Unless you want me to add a DS to each team as the eighth man :-D

    I've given you a provisional 13-7

    But I will be traveling again Sunday. Will have to stay off the internet and watch it recorded on Monday, hopefully unspoiled (and unsoiled). :?

    If anyone wants a late pick then post a number in the spoiler thread and I'll randomise you a rider. Though bviously it's pointless now, because it's all about Lua Pibernik, whose gonna rip Your Man's legs off.

    Oh, and if by some chance I managed to make the draw with a slightly outdated startlist and your rider isn't on the cobbles today - please replace with whoever got his number and let us know.

    Oh man I struck gold with my man Niki Terpstra! Almost as good as an Armin van Buuren bassline. :wink:

    That's how it goes as you get older.

    2 of us picked 1-1 and got different riders! Haha

    Turns out the random number generator is even worse than picking than I am which considering I picked Stybar as I had a complete brain fart and thought I was picking for P-R is saying something!

    Late picks got a re-randomisation.
    I had to keep refreshing the spreadsheet until you stopped getting Sagan, Kwia and GVA.

    DNF for my man Coquard. Literally didn't see him or anyone else from Vital Concept.

    Same for me - I heard nothing whatsoever of my man Bodnar and apparently dnf.
