The scoring system looks awful complicated for a first-timer... but nevertheless I gave it a go

So how in god's name do you create a new profile on that site ?!

I think there are some teething issues, possibly to do with caching. I have to login several times for my TdF team to become my Vuelta one. Hopefully it'll get sorted soon. I think it only went live today.

in the left top corner click the velo games logo changes TDF to Vuelta....

Never noticed that earlier! Still, all seems to be working properly now.

Not that I'm snooping, but as I remember, you couldn't see another team lineup before the TdF. That seems to have changed.

Seems I might have been a bit too fast in just clicking some names... I still had 6 points left to use and (when snooping around) it seems I am the only one
... oh well, at least it gives me a second excuse if I don't score very high

Done and in.

No I don't think that's necessarily true. I think it's a gamble going with Nibali. He's expensive and if he is prioritising Worlds... I might yet take him out. It's the first time in history 4 Czech riders are in the same Grand Tour, so I really want then all in my FL and yes I do know that's not a great way to chose a winning team

I'm in, hopefully a better show than the TdF.

Can we still change our riders then?

Besides the Czech, you also have a soft spot for Belgian cyclists?

You can keep changing until the lockdown (Saturday afternoon IIRC).

Yeah, it's my cyclocross background

Interesting factet: The jersey I have selected for my team is the Tabor Cyklokros Klub. Stybar snr manages it, and Zdenek rose to prominence through it's ranks.

Anyone mind if I join? Although I probably haven't been following pro cycling for as long as everyone else so I may be fighting for last place
