    For ease of copy/paste, the league code is 912897520

    only a couple of weeks to go!

    Picked my faves, not necessarily for form. Always space for voeckler on team Stoner too.

    Sorted my team.
    Usually nbt and I have similar riders, this year not one is the same.

    Don’t forget you might need to make changes as teams are finalised. When I was setting up my team, Stannard was on the Sky roster as they defaulted to late year’s team (presumably without any riders who’ve changed teams?), but he’s not riding this year. I’m waiting on a couple of teams to confirm and suspect I may have to make changes

    I’m in. Will probably be mid-pack as per usual. Or last. Could be last…

    Rider lists being updated regularly as each squad is finalised, so remember to check your team for non-starters. I had Alex Dowsett down, but he’s not riding so I’ve had to make changes

    Is Froome not leading Sky this year then? I see Porte is favourite!

    In, taken a couple of punts, will likely fall flat on my backside.

    Froome’s 26 points, Porte and Sagan 22, then down to 18 for Quintana. Everyone else is 16 and below. Porte is looking strong but I think a lot of the tipping him as favourite is mindgames. However that should really be on the main TDF thread

    Not on the best pre season but on point for sky. Porte won more and has bmc going for him

    I’m in. Might have to make some changes though soon. A bit of a hurried choice there.

    Gone for a heavily GC biased team, which given is seems to be a sprinters Tour seems a tad naive, hey-ho. Sagan’s over rated anyway isn’t he?!?!

    After some shuffling around, I’ve got Steve Cummings in. Had to drop a big name though.

    I’ve done a full analysis of the stages, best suited riders to each, spreadsheet, recent form. Then picked some funny sounding names cos I ran out of $$.

    So I’ll be way down the pecking order as usual 🙁

    Come on Team Sumo Fatties! I’m off to Dusseldorf on Friday to watch the action close up!

    If you pick a rider on the velogames site and then go back on a day or two later, will it tell you if any of your team has been withdrawn or do you have to do a proper check on the officialish sites ?

    If you visit your team page and scroll down, there’s a “starter” column in the grid view. Tick for those riding, cross for those no longer on the roster

    Thanks for setting it up, not expecting big things from my team after many years of mediocrity and disappointment…..

    I’ve built mine for the 2nd half of the tour, it’s all climbers except Kristoff and Cummings. That’s my excuse for being towards the bottom anyway…

    I’m also in although it was a rush job on Saturday morning. Our week old new born us using up all of my energy so plan on being way down the list some Paris!
