I'm doing the purist route too and I'm also starting off slowly, easing myself in...

Congrats to those of you wise enough to have Mr Thomas in your teams. I didn't and have dropped 6 places. Think a couple of my riders got caught in the crash - that's my excuse, and I'm sticking to it ;-)

Just signed up even though I have no idea what im doing!
Oooh finding this quite exciting! First time I've done a fantasy league (since fantasy football in the Telegraph when I was 14 and t'interweb was yet to be invented) and it's almost as much fun finding out how my team did as it is to see what actually happened in the race when I wake up.
2 flatish stages to come I understand - is everyone sticking with what they've got for the Purists league or are you choppng and changing as you go?
