***Velogames TdF is OPEN***

[MrSlant]

Sounding the MN cycling klaxon, the The Tour de France fantasy team game is ready and open. Velogames

Who do we pick?

Who will actually be riding this year?

Will we have an MN competition again this year? Bagsy not thinking of a name this time.

The tour stars soon

Pan, PAN, be our Chavanel and get ready to lead from the front with the annual TdF thread.

Well Team Slant have three of the four top places at the moment, purely down to our 'heart' based teams and insistence on having G. Expect this all to go horribly wrong when the mountains turn up! I'm not unhappy at the moment though .

I do apologise for 'Shia Labike', teenagers and puns. FFS.

It's been an interesting one so far hasn't it? I had a momentary lapse in my Sagan hate when he unclipped, calmly clipped back in and carried on accelerating up the hill as though nothing had happened. Then I spotted his moustache and silly celebration and I remembered why I will never win Velogames as long as he is on the tour.

That crash yesterday as well .

It was the Bora ads that made me start to soften towards Sagan I swear. Stockholm syndrome or something.

is this another example of Cav trying to make some room where there wasn't a reasonable hope for it?

sorry = wrong thread!

Well DS1 and I are going to be falling down the ranks after today!

Oh dear, that was nasty

Very dramatic finish.

DH is very happy to be top of the Velogames leaderboard tonight

I concede happily, like G giving way to his rightful team leader . Congratulations to your DH

As I only have 7 left in my team I'm just waiting to plummet down the leader board. DS1 and DS3 though, just wait...

Yellow Jersey, once again, is claimed by DramaAlpaca!
Well done, kisses and cuddly toy!

Mwah, mwah

My thanks on this occasion must go to the lovely Eddy B-H, my wildcard, who was wonderfully on form this TdF and got me lots of points.

Congrats to Felicity and Pannnn on their podium places too
