My uncles joining the league (hopefully), he was the one who introduced to me this cycling malarkey, so no cyber bullying please, thank you!

The more the merrier, Beacon riders or not.

It's a good turn out this year so it should be fun.

I notice that by starting his team name a number rathe than a letter Ed has secured himself a place on top of the list...................

..............at least until Saturday tea time.

I like the sound of this.... How does this gig work then, being a hater of all things football i can't compare to fantasy football.

Well scoring's a bit complicated (as you'll see from the site) but basically pick a range of cyclists (GC, sprinters, climbers) and hope they all rack up barrel loads of points each day and don't crash or get ill. Simple as that...

Only one team with Kittel then. Lawrence don't tell me you put Millar in with today's stage in mind?!

A pretty shocking start from me; good job there are 19 stages for that to improve!

Im happy at the moment but going into the mountains im sure I will drop down the table.

Hopefully Cav and Sagan can pull me through the other side of the hills

Costa!

A good come back for Richard, however I myself have not enough consistent riders, that leaves me to slump down the table

only if van den Broeck didn't crash out!

Yeah not too bad in the end though I haven't checked the final scores. Quintana and Rui Costa have helped; shame I picked the wrong Argos-Shimano sprinter
