...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

Draft Day 2015

The Local

January 19th

7:00 p.m.

"The Boardroom"

No, seriously, that is where we are having the draft. In his first year as draft director, Gregario Forza has locked down some pretty posh accommodations.  Once again the Irish win out as we head to the venerable downtown establishment "The Local".  Perhaps the Guinness with inspire you to pick Danny Boy Martin first overall.  Maybe the corned beef and cabbage will convince you that this is the year to draft Nicolas The Leprechaun Roche.  Or just maybe a wee nip of Jameson will make you take a flyer on Phil the Irish Thrill Deignan.  Whatever happens it should be fun.  Now that we have gear (thanks STP Greenline!) we are looking to move the fantasy cycling club into the future with more events and more good times.  So, dust off your big board and head on down.  Wiskota!
