Fantasy TDF 2025

For those early submitters it's worth checking your team against the final startlist riders (your team page) I had two X which needed substituting.

 

[steverob]

I had one but it was a 4 point rider who I was really only picking because of the team he was on and hoping to leech some 'Assists' points off their team leader, so replacing him wasn't too difficult.

Reminder for those cogitating about which team to enter, the deadline is tomorrow 13:15 CEST, 12:15 in the UK and 07:15 in TO or NYC.

Looking at you @Adam4868 !

I have foolishly reshuffled my squad, for a small fee I can reveal the names of those I've dropped as they are bound to score well now.

Hmm not really regretting ditching Wout for MVDP so far...

 

[Cathryn]

My team is an utter disaster!

Early days yet. Still time for things to get better, or indeed, worse.

Glad to see you have Toms SQUINCH. He's a favourite of mine but I didn't fit him in this time. Never scores much in the way of points mind. But a great name, with so many pronunciations.

Also a fan of potatoes so I like him.

He's legendary for loving potatoes, and was given a role as a potato ambassador by some potato promotion organisation

Here he is winning his latest Latvian TT champs wit a non UCI compliant technical helmet

I feel my effort to squeeze both Pog and Jonas into the team, Merlier as sprinter and then fill the rest with value 6 point riders is doomed to failure. Missing MvdP may have been my curse, and I always forget those bloody Ass. points. Hopefully I'll have a massive resurgence in the high mountains

Pedant alert - you can only have a REsurgence if you have previously surged!

You may well have a massive surge in the high mountains. And probably will.
And as you are ahead of me, What do I know, I am still waiting for my first surge.

I went pog, Jonas, merlier as well. Already profited from having Alaphillippe and Berckmoes as 6 pointers. Onwards! Come on Tim!

Oh I'm counting back historically, much like Alaphilippe. I was top twenty in the OFFICIAL TdF Fantasy League in 2022 you know, though obviously I don't like to mention it.

Oh well thats all right then...you should have said!

 

[No Ta Doctor]

Well I would have done, but I didn't want to bore everyone with tales of when I was top twenty in the OFFICIAL TdF Fantasy League in 2022
