One week from now, it's game on. So far, about 2/3 of the teams have submitted their rosters. The rest should come shortly. But for those of you who are anxious to get started, here's an initial list of riders and values.

If you need some help with your picks, the following resources might be useful.

Cylingnews is always a good place to start.
Velo News has plenty of features, with a heavy accent on the North Americans.
Cycling Weekly is good to, and is your home for all things Cavendish.
Podium Cafe has plenty of chatter, gossip, speculation, and the occasional good insight.
