Alright, this is why we play this game.  The Grand Boucle is upon us and it's time to get your Tour team tuned up.  This Transfer period was moved directly before the Tour by popular demand meaning your pickups can be based on the most up to date info.  Transfers open at 8 AM on Monday the 23rd and close on midnight the 4th of July.  As always, just leave a comment on this post to make a transfer.  Vive Le Tour!

Soak it in, you just beat Pistolero
Solid riding and one ballsy break away earned Andrew Talansky the biggest win of his career.

Broom Wagon: Giro Recap

Nitro!

Viva Colombia!!!
Nairo Quintana secured his first (of many?) grand tour wins last Sunday.   With the Giro wrapped up the WFL leader board saw its first big reshuffling of the season.  Gregario Forza comes away the big winner scoring a massive (epic) 395 points.  The Tours of Belgium and Bavaria were in there too but for the most part Greg scored his points in the Pink.  Two Giro wins in a row for Gregario Forza, was made even sweeter with Forza beating the Commish in Velogames for the first time ever.  Is this the beginning of a new era?  The Nairo Forza era?  Can Gregario keep it rolling through the summer?  Will the Wiskota Fantasy League crown a new champion this season?
Stay tuned for more details and a previews of the weeks to come.
