You ARE running the TdF Challenge, after all. kaqphin - 2008-07-01 9:04 PM Ok - Kristen asked for some sort of introduction to the Tour De France... my question is.. if I write it, where do I post it? I would post it in the challenge forum - since there are lots of people that have signed up for the challenge that are unfamiliar with it (your's truly included) JMHO
Lol well I was thinking about breaking it into sections: Day 1: About the competition - length, stages, how they set the course, the logistics etc Day 2: About the jerseys, teams, rules and general cycling terms Day 3: This years favourite riders for Yellow Day 4: Favourite riders for Green Day 5: Maybe some history on past riders etc... Am I missing anything? |

hmmm not a bad idea... I wonder if we will get a TDF forum this year... Im surprised there isnt one by now!
I guess i could write it as a BT article but Im not sure how long those take to get put up... was there a separate forum last year? I didn't really start posting in the forums until September Yup... and the year before... I think its a good idea as it means things like results etc tend to stay out of the main forums so that people who do not want to see information because they arent watching the action live dont... Maybe I should ask under the Training log support forum? |

Am I missing anything? Yup - maybe ssplit day 2 so one is about actual rules.... one is about cycling strategy and some of the ettiquette/traditions like riders going off the front through their home town and GC not being generally contested on the final stage... I thought about KOM but apart from Mauricio Soler and maybe Zubeldia... most of the contestants will be GC riders... White jersey might be fun... lots of new young guys this year Edited by kaqphin 2008-07-01 9:30 PM |
