Massive Attack!

Gilbert Wins Worlds Road Race!

The rainbow jersey was secured by Gregario Forza with a blistering attack on the Cauberg.  This win saved the season for the Wiskota Fantasy League's first overall pick.  However, with another strong finsh by Eddie the Boss, Volpe maintained their podium position.  Thanks to a third place finish on the day by Valverde, Team Wiskota Dynamic regained first overall by a mere 3 points.  With only three events to go it couldn't be any closer.

Martin Der Mund!

WORLD TT

Bill the Neo-Pro scores big with Tony Martin and Alberto Contador, securing sole possession of first place.

A Two Way Race?

With only a few races to go Team Wiskota Dynamic has regained its advantage over Bill the Neo-Pro.

With a 500 point lead over third place and only 5 races to go, it would seem like the Wiskota fantasy season has come down to a 2 man battle.  However, two of those races are the World's TT and Road Race.  These hold as many potential points as the Olympics and we all saw how one team can rack up crazy points in a short amount of time.  Team Volpe still has a chance to move up, or down,  as Gregario looks to sneak onto the podium.  How will this all play out?  Will the Worlds decide it all?  Lombardia?  Will Tony Martin repeat in Bejing to seal the deal? 

Viva la Vuelta!

The Contador gamble pays off, but the spanish sweep of the podium keeps the Wiskota leader board close at at the top.
