Bel Gelato have been formed and will melt soon in the midday sun

notelep have also entered. Think this time I might even have picked 10 riders who'll start stage 1

A hurried selection (getting excuses in early), but I'm in.

David Martin · « **Reply #5 on:** 04 May, 2012, 02:45:26 pm »

All downhill from here...

I'm in. I've only heard of one of the people in my team, and I chose one of them because his name sounds like a biscuit, so I expect to do well.

I've chosen people I've heard of.
I suspect that means that they are prone to spectacular crashes, long but ultimately doomed breakaways and not being as good as they used to be.

David Martin · « **Reply #8 on:** 04 May, 2012, 03:28:34 pm »

I made a rational and carefully informed decision. On a completely unrelated note, how do you get pinholes out of a laptop screen?

How do I join this mini league

Once you have been given the code, go to your team page by logging-in with your username and password, and clicking your team link on the right-hand side of the screen.

I can't see the your team link.

David Martin · « **Reply #10 on:** 04 May, 2012, 05:57:54 pm »

Create your team.
Then go to your team page by clicking the name of your team on the RHS.
Then at the bottom of the page is a list with 'spot1, spot2..' etc. Click the 'join league' text.

Still no update from yesterdays prologue

Eccentrica Gallumbits · « **Reply #13 on:** 06 May, 2012, 05:55:15 pm »

And yet I've dropped from 3rd to 6th

David Martin · « **Reply #14 on:** 06 May, 2012, 06:28:40 pm »

Somehow I appear to be in first place but only have points for Thomas de Gent. Methinks it is not working properly

Ray 6701 · « **Reply #15 on:** 06 May, 2012, 07:41:24 pm »

Showing no points for any of my riders or anyone else's for that matter

Two riders in the top 8 yesterday & a stage win today so I can't be doing too bad.

David Martin · « **Reply #16 on:** 07 May, 2012, 11:35:58 am »

I think their system is borken..

perpetual dan · « **Reply #17 on:** 07 May, 2012, 10:54:42 pm »

They've got the first two stages up now. Mrs Dan is winning in our house.

vorsprung · « **Reply #18 on:** 09 May, 2012, 12:58:56 pm »

ha! I am last!!!

bobb · « **Reply #19 on:** 09 May, 2012, 01:46:39 pm »

I'm second from last and I've got our mate Roberto in my team

Yes. I only have 1 sprinter and no Taylor Phinney
3 of the sprint stages have gone now and Taylor Phinney is out.
Bring on the mountains

So I've just lost my first team member. But that's bike racing. I am still a resounding last.

Ray 6701 · « **Reply #23 on:** 16 May, 2012, 08:36:48 pm »

I've dropped down to 3rd place but now have the race leader with Rodriguez. I've also got a fiver on him to win with William Hill @ 12/1

David Martin · « **Reply #24 on:** 21 May, 2012, 09:10:12 am »

The cunning plan is working - up to 3rd now but at least one of my picks has gone home..
