The Broom Wagon

...cleaning up after the races.

Tour Down Under
Wilunga

The Wiskota Fantasy League is happy to welcome a new member: Dan the Neo-Pro. The Neo-Pro has come out swinging, topping the first leader board of the season. With 4th and 7th place finishes by Dumolin and Impey respectively, Dan has made some early season hay. This is not to diminish from the early season revelation that is Taco. Team Taco Salsa ValVerde has let their presence be known with an impressive performance by Richie Porte. The group texting was ablaze with the news that the man best known last season for carrying his bike was back to riding it. As the hashtag RichiePortage started to trend Taco fired back with an 86 point effort. Team Wiskota Dynamic's risky pick of Evans in the last round, paid off, sort off. Maybe not the overall victory he was looking for but points none the less.

"Hello, Greg? Yeah, do you know who I am now?"

Although the TdU is not the biggest and best race of the year it is still nice to get things rolling. From here we head to the deserts of the Arabian peninsula for a trifecta of half ass races sponsored by our love of gasoline. Check back for some previews as well as draft result commentary from Gregario Forza.

We'll miss you buddy

  2. Well the cycling enthusiast on the east side of the Mississippi are a little disappointed...It's another stage win for Taco...Cav crossing the line to sit with King Neptune first. I had no idea Taco was this adept at managing a pro fantasy cycling team? Was the apparent lack of interest last year part of his strategy?

  3. Maillot Jaune Guillaume was screaming Allahu AKBAR after their boy Terpstra created a dust storm with his blazing fast TT today. The Terpinator is now fitting in nicely with his hosts... Rockin' that Gold Jersey! Over on my side of the River the mood is a little lighter as our man Grivko holds a spot in the GC top 10. STPs confident they will get some points out of the Middle East before heading to the Omloop.

  4. I have to agree with STP, the biggest story so far this season is Team Taco Salsa ValVerde. If Kittel wasn't sucking so hard in Qatar Mikey would have all the early season points. I'll try to do a brief write up of the first two desert races. That way Greg will have a chance to explain his strategy of waiting until later to try to earn points.

  5. I plan to win the league in Beijing. Is that still a race?
    I am happy to see the terpinator looking good. Should be able to pull Tommeke to a spring double.
