2010 FGBC Spring Classics Pool
Here we go. The most exciting vicarious race season of the year is upon us. In case you have forgotten, last year's competition was epic. Mike grabbed a huge early lead and looked to be cruising to an easy win. But then Rachel roared back and made it a very close race. But in the end, she came up short by 85 points. Good times.
We will use the same system as last year. The riders are broken down into different tiers and there are three different options for choosing teams. The top 30 finishers in each race will score points. Bigger points are up for grabs at the four monuments. For all the details, go here. But ignore the list of riders on that page. That is last year's list.
There is no entry fee. There will be no prizes. Everyone is welcome to participate. Feel free to invite others.
The list of riders for 2010 is here.
The three options are as follows:
Option 1:
1 from Tier 1
1 from Tier 2
1 from Tier 3
2 from Tier 4
2 from Tier 5
1 from Tier 6
1 from Ardennes
Option 2:
1 from Tier 2
3 from Tier 3
2 from Tier 4
2 from Tier 5
1 from Ardennes
Option 3:

FYI, Mike went with option 3 last year. It was option 2 for Rachel.
