That's alright charlie, thanks for getting this going in the first place. I think the league updates sometime early am.

This is the fun week for the predictions, tricky getting the mix of sprinters, GC and possible break aways sorted out. It's doing my head in.

definately a good thing - double bubble. And the TT's are probably more predictable than any other stage.Especially with no Cancellara or Chavanel now. Kerching, pick as many top TT'ers as you can fit in (3 more transfers after Friday ).

ooh my money's on Deadbeat Heroes now....it's going to be a close run thing.

sorry dtc your bonus stage isn't the TT - it's stage 20, the last stage before Paris - get your sprinters out. for that one.

Thanks for the heads up

On a side issue, will I lose my Frank Schleck points if he's disqualified ?

don't think so dtc. Nothing in the rules to say they take points away for anything.

Congrats to Ear Wiggins 2012 DS league tour winner.

thanks charlie for doing this league - I really enjoyed it.

[dtcdtcdtc]

Well done Ear Wiggins and thanks for comp, Charlie

Enjoyable format which made the viewing on the tv much more interesting

Thanks for the tips etc during the comp. I rose from a distant last to a respectable 14th

[afx237vi]

Well done Ear Wiggins... 2nd place for me, which isn't bad!

you are the Froome of the forum. You was robbed of glory by Ear Wiggins in the mountains.

well done.

of course if me and lantern rouge didn't give you all a 2 stage head start, things could have been different.....

[dean michael]

Enjoyed the comp, will there be one for the last of the grand tours Vuelta a espana next month?

[Cissy Fairfax]

I'll set up a velogames league for the Vuelta in 3 weeks. Far simpler game but good fun.
