Fantasy cycling. Trying to pick a purist squad.

Which of the cheaper domestiques is likely to ride the tdf or vde and get pts?

but who knows who will be fit in the summer apart from Dave Atkinson (le god)

Well, just wondering, but what was the prize for the Purists League? And - I haven't bothered to look but - are the final results up? And - next year, wil we have an option to have a purist team and (!) a non-purist team? Thanks!

I don't know that. But I *do* know that in the unlimited transfer windows the game doesn't log changes. That means you can make changes at those points and still be a purist. You can look at the stage listing to see when those points are.

The season's too long for a simple purist game with 9 riders to make much sense... even the pro teams aren't that restricted in terms of personnel. So to qualify as a purist you pick a squad for each race and stick with it.
