    I've selected a team too. Hopefully my decision to fill my extra slots with riders with the initials AT will get a better result than in the tour.

    After lurking on the forum for over a year I've finally got round to requesting an account. This feels like a good place to start. I've entered my team - JAMBO VISMA. Good luck everyone!

    @IWRATS you could call your team Bora Hibsgrohe for sake of balance?

    the giro selection isn't too wide eh

    regrettably i'm going to have to consider backing a bookies fave this time to avoid two lanterns in a row

    Saw footage of the water botttle that killed Geraint’s chances. Kid near the phone footage actually says Mamma Mia

    the eurosport highlights are better than quest if you have the option.. same coverage but 90 mins instead of 60

    Very open race now but weaker field. - my needs is to fall behind so that I am watching recording of the day before to allow me to fast forward through the adverts

    Quest coverage is really poor, although part of that is down to the low-def feed they are getting from italian TV. Real lack of info on screen.

    I'm top of the league for now but also blasted most of my credits on G. Can see me dropping down the placings once the GC battle hots up.

    I don’t like to cheer but this will mean I will definitely be last if the event gets to the end.....

    Splashed all my credits on G and Yates. I picked some random Sunweb riders I'd never heard of because "Sunweb are good at tactics". I'm not feeling so smart now.

    Here is hoping Ganna picks me up more points in the remaining time trials.

    Is Sagan going to win a race this season?

    who are you going to invite to the party.. who's going to kick over the drinks table..

    vintage eurosport commentary on the exhilarating final group sprint at the gent-wevelgem flanders classic

    think it was carlton kirby not rob hatch but these english lads all sound the same to me
