It’s that time year again for The Tour and fantasy competition. Waste away far too much time thinking of who to pick throughout the three weeks!

Think I’ve settled on my starting order.

Both links offered me a drop down link language in the right end of the white bar at the top of the page. Safari.

I’m in; I don’t follow pro cycling closely enough to know who the best picks might be, but the Tour always throws up surprises in some form - so I guess even the best informed might have their plans derailed at some point!

Absolutely. So many variables. But some riders will make more sense than others.

You can study the form from 2026 races, look at stage profiles, team dynamics etc etc, but things still have to fall your way. And riders can drop out which will hit credits hard.

Don’t rush in too fast to make changes from the first couple of stages. You’ll quickly run out of credits. I try to evaluate any changes each rest day or around a run of specific stage profiles. Look how the points are allocated in the rules also as this will help with selections toward the end.

It can soak up a lot of thought process to make selections and changes!

I’m in! No password for the second one and it won’t let me select it so not sure I’ve done it properly/what the difference is.
