I'm in - luckily I have no idea who's on form or even in the race
(is it safe just to asume that all those listed will start unless they're injured or do we have to do [i]even more[/i] work before the off ?)
(no Jens for me - may have to change that)
Just listened to 5 Live's program on Le Tour, getting excited now..
😀

Not really, one or two who are listed are actually subs. Worth checking using the official tdf website.
Team "naegears and naeideas" is in.. bonne chance,
[i]Shonky forum sale[/i] team registered
mrlebowski - I just tried to find it to 'listen again' and couldn't.
Was it a particular programme or anything. It's probably got lost amongst the Wimbledon stuff.
The Big Chinned Wheel Suckers are in. Ironically not featuring the big chinned wheel sucker 😕
Anyone else wonder if the points budget is a bit generous? I thought I would have to choose some proper (admittedly pro) nodders, but I'm fairly happy with my team!
alex, try this

wind forward to 11:18ish
iPlayer Alex? Or podcast on iTunes?
Other than that I don't know, sorry. 😕
BTW if you want to download from iPlayer to listen later (as I am with the TdF programme) you can use

navigate to sport>5 Live Sport> and its in the list of programmes available.
Thanks guys - listening now.
Ro5ey's Roulers are having a final pump up of tyres and are tightening thier shoes.
Crashandburn are in, that about sums up my chance 😯
I'm in, team hud chappin' chomping at the bit, although I've probably picked at least two that are already injured 😆
Rusty Demons of Hurt entered and ready to destroy @tweetersagan will crush you all! 😀
Anyone else using iPlayer to listen.
It cuts out before the end. The end is on this one:

Nearly 70 teams in, wondering if we can make 100 by Saturday.. 😀
team justgofaster are in. Awful interface but great fun. Didn't want to add to the weight of expectation on Bradley 😉
Any more?
Chapeau Les Dawson are in.
Rambo riders are all present and correct.
euphoria are in on behalf of a friend.
Who else can't stop tinkering with thier team ?
Must have changed it 3 times yday and have changed it once again this morn.
Was just like that, but have finally settled down and am now vaguely happy with my line up. I'm sure they're all going to crash and pull out in the first week though.
One day remains to get your team in.. 😀
I know most of my riders are in the tour but im not sure about all of them, anywhere i can check?
The official tour site has a riders list. If they've got a * by their name it means they're a sub and won't be in unless someone pulls out today.
Just had to swap a rider round, teams all good now.
ARGHHHHH
Am I being stupid or is the velo games website impossible to sign up to?
Every time I try and register a new account it keeps on repeating the message 'username not alphanumeric'. Doesn't seem to make any difference whether I include a number in my username or not.
Help!

Sounds like you're trying to put a symbol in. Alphanumeric means letters and numbers, not ;'#]][£$%^&*( type things.
No spaces either, thats the problem i had

That was it, sorted now and team created 🙂
Deadline has now passed. 88 teams will battle it out over the next 3 weeks to decide who is the most all knowing and wise of all the STWers. Or the luckiest. Depends if I win or not.
I don't like to gloat but mwah hah hah ha! 130 points clear.
Top 20 overall too, let's hope I can keep it up.
Enjoy it while it lasts, which won't be too long with that team. Think I'll chill in the middle until the time comes to move up 😉
Not a chance Hoppy! i'm happy enough with my 16th
ouch, bring on the stage races
Feeling sorry for Warton, who hasn't even made it off the start line 😀
I've got a team on http://www.rcukfantasytourdefrance.com and see you can make transfers there - bit annoying as if I'd known I'd have started with some TTers.

Do you think Spartacus is having the same mental chat with himself? Most likely no, it's a three week event after all....
Yeah bigG but he's not as far in front as me ;-p
18th... I'll take that. We'll see some 'do or die' moves from Spartacus this week to hold on.
I hope...
Woohoo! Tenth! Can we stop now?!
Third! 😀 just hope all was well with the urine sample I gave after picking my team.
Top of the Pops! Come on!
