Is anyone else's team showing any points yet? Or have I fucked  something up? Maybe they're stuck under a finish gantry...

Tom tom, you're in.

I'm Resplendent yellow.

I'm languishing mid table after my Cav, OPQS team, and bonus first stage strategy didn't go quite as hoped...

FD, you need to have submitted by 10am CEST (9am BST) on the day of the stage to score for that stage?

Team Time Trial:

No fantasy points are scored for any riders or cycling teams in Team Time Trial stage.

You are correct. Why is that then?

I was going to join this funfest. But i couldn't decide whether to be Team Human Growth Hormone, Team Hyperoxygenated Blood Transfusion, or Team EPO.

Plus, i just can't be assed!

I loved the bit in the interview yesterday where Cav said he started the last climb and then remembered he'd ridden it once in some event fucking years ago so knew exactly what to do. Matter of fact encyclopedic beta mind. Genius.

Is anyone else having trouble looking at the fantasy site from their phone? I can only get a wank mobile version whichever browser I use and despite telling it to view the desktop site. Really annoying.
