With fantasy games of this type each rider is rated & given a value according to ability & likelihood to do well (so Froomes & Cavendish's are higher value than Bodnar & Terpstra for example). Points are scored on a number of criteria, the main one being finishing position on the stage that day.
To stop you selecting all the big names in the same team you are given a budget & have to fill a squad of nine with certain rider types (ie X climbers, X Sprinters, X All rounders etc).
Squads selected a Lewes Wanderers CC mini league was set up with 7 from the club taking part. After 6 days the league looks like this:
As the saying goes 'the Tour isn't won in the first week' or something like that, & I'm sure there is gonna be plenty of shuffling of this order when the high mountains come into play.
Its worth noting however, that after the first 6 stages the Lewes Wanderers CC jersey of the superteam that is Robinoco Flow sits proudly in 1st position. Ahead of the 30,000 other teams from all around the world.
