So I would like to get my team sorted out before I leave  19

For purists, I am sure Sky are going to do well on the climbs, but who will be the top two? I can't decide between...
S. Henao, V. Kiryienka, R. Porte, J. Tiernan-Locke

Henao is possibly the team leader
Porte is in form...
Kiryienka looked strong in Corsica and has good history in the Basque Country
JTL likes to climb and is cheaper. . .

There;s lots of choice for this one, though picking Contador restricts the number of riders with a chance of top 3 you can pick...
...and for puriat you need all rounders, climbers and time triallers so its not easy...

Resaved all the teams, hopefully that'll pick up any other missing people but if you find anyone else let me know.

Martin was in game but seemed to drop out, no idea why, resaved the OPQS team and he's reappeared now but as a DS.

Weird.

Let me know if anyone else is missing.

Sagan did that for me for Tirreno, came back in as 40 credit DS then after a couple of days reverted back to an AR

Not sure who is running this race but Tony Martin seems to have disappeared from the Vuelta Pais Vasco list of riders - not even there when filter all riders. (Though is in list of All Riders when picking team for the Spring Classics).

As long as its up and running, I can chuck in riders in both teams and hope for the best. I won't be able to follow it or make transfers.

Tuesday morning I leave Land's End at 10am on route to John O'Groats and back in 5 days. I am NOT cycling, Just being an official in the car  4

Looks about right to me, think stage 2 will end up with some kind of sprint that Ratto will win  3

Yeh no young riders, these spanish races never seem to have one

Fine, I have it as:

1 - MM
2 - MM
3 - SF
4 - SF
5 - MM
6 - ITT

Will need to do another roster update before Monday but they're up to date and rider values have been set.

Also, no Young riders comp?

Aye, it's almost ready to go, one question, would you rate a cat 2 summit finish as a summit finish or just as a normal mountain (look at stage 3).

Yeh thats a summit finish for me anyway, as its going uphill before the part it classes as the 'cat 2 part' (I think it is anyway)
