***Paceline Velogames Tour de France***

[Elefantino]

It's that time again! The Tour de France, le Grand Boucle, starts Friday in (a probably rainy) Denmark, and you can participate virtually through Velogame 2022.

If you haven't done Velogames before, it's easy. Go to the website and create an account. Once you're in, go to "Velogame 2022" and create your team. Then you can join our "The Paceline" league. If you've been in our league before, you should still be in.

If not: Use the League Code to enter the league by clicking on an Open spot on your Team Roster's "Mini-League Manager" section. You can reach your Team Roster by going back the the main page and clicking "Visit Team" in the right-hand panel of each screen when you are logged in. Then, under "Team Management," click on "Join A League" and enter the code 168521812.

I will again find some off-the-wall Tour swag to mail to the winner.

Enjoy!

Well, we'll just have to pin our number on upside down. Yes, pin, per another thread.

I’m in. Wout says his knee is not good—not sure if he’s bluffing.

Yeah, between that, riders with Covid, and Bahrain being raided by police, there are a lot of riders with great potential who might not be able to deliver.

Pogacar still seems like the safest pick.
