If I knew how I’d post Tour De France by Kraftwerk, that would get the legs pedalling faster.

Good call !

I’ve just shot myself in the foot.

After yesterday’s TT I decided I wanted to sell one of my big guns and bring a different rider in.

Unfortunately, I accidentally clicked on the wrong rider thus selling someone I wanted to retain.

I then tried to buy back the player I’d just mis-sold – but he wasn’t available for some unknown reason.

Cost me 150 credits (50 credits per sale/purchase) of my 400 game credit allowance to buy back the player I ‘didn’t want’ back.

I only wanted to make the swop as I wanted to bring the talented Vauquelin in to my team. I was prepared to sacrifice my 2nd highest points score in order to make the ‘transfer’ – the lad I wanted to ‘sell’ had a bright start last year and then dropped down the GC… I’m thinking the same will happen this year. He looked awful in the TT yesterday, hence my decision to hit the eject button.

Hopefully the lad I’ve accidentally sold has a stinker today. Then I’ll try to buy him back tomorrow. That’ll cost me another 100 credits… ouch!

NB – I need to retain some credits in case I lose a rider due to injury (already lost one), as you only score points for a complete team of 8 riders.
