The signup is throughout and it’s time to start out the FSA Directeur Sportif for actual!
Some fast post-deadline notes:
* Did you begin making a workforce and never end? Electronic mail me a workforce with 25 riders and 150 factors and I’ll get it loaded. However I MUST RECEIVE IT TODAY! As quickly because the flag drops in UAE, I can’t assist anymore. And should you didn’t begin a workforce, then there is no such thing as a fixing the matter.
* Did you overlook to hit submit? Don’t fear, in case your workforce had 25 riders and met the principles, I submitted it for you.
* Issues to do: discover your folks and kind a non-public league! This can create a standings record on the backside of your workforce web page. Once you make a non-public league, solely you may see it, so go nuts! Put me on there if you would like (Sons of Maria Borre). However should you actually wish to go face to face with mates, it is best to each do that.
* Within the meantime, be happy to inform us about your squad! What did you agonize over? What’s the theme to your workforce? I simply began with Matti and Remco, the highest two riders who I truly root for, pondering that an Olympics yr needs to be good for them. Additionally we now have the Editors’ League draft, and I are likely to seize my drafted guys for my major workforce, so I don’t have cut up loyalties.
* Stats! Apparently a number of you agreed with me about van der Poel! He’s our top-picked large identify, little question on account of his worth being beneath the double restriction threshold. Pogačar is on 215 groups, an affordable quantity in comparison with previous years, which tells me our pricing was right this time. Isaac Del Toro is #1 total, on a surprising 528 groups out of slightly below 800 complete — that is what occurs when a 1-pointer goes nuts in winter.
* For a number of years a rider named Chris Fontecchio has been obtainable within the competitors, and I’m proud to say that I’m on three groups this yr! I can’t promise to attain any factors, since I don’t have a UCI license, however I’ve been using and I do have plenty of bikes, so that you by no means know!
OK, some other ideas you wish to share as we open the competitors? Thanks once more to our mates at FSA! I’ll get a head rely however often there’s a wholesome competitors within the store, and with a HUGE season about to get underway, I’m certain this yr isn’t any exception.
