Talansky puncture inside 3
So glad I avoided AT and like written above Majka this year:)
I get the feeling that Garmin are still sorting team out , should be primed next year, you will notice a lot of their up n comers have changed races and time of the year this year, finding out what races and what time of year suits them best, hence Craddock in Giro, Dennis in Cali.
As if we needed any more reasons to have Sagan on the roster! Sure I'll take an extra 5 points.
On paper Majka has a great chance but he's likely to be called upon to sacrifice himself for Contador.
Majka has already tweeted he shouldn't be there as not fit
From the official rulebook.
The young-rider ranking is reserved for riders
born since 1st January 1989
TJVG born 12th Aug 88
AT born 23rd Nov 88
Tala and TJ have been too old all year, didn't u realise that in earlier tour
BTW Talansky has lost 4 mins, no doubt involved in CAV's doing. He may be hurt tho.
Pinot and Bardet will fight out the White I think. I am also a fan of Magic Majka too but not his year.
How has anyone lost time behind the crash? Inside 3km and bunch Sprint = same time
Thank you,
I've gone for Thibaut Pinot. fingers crossed.
I was curious, I haven't played too many Fantasy Cycling games and I thought this was the only competition that scored Young Riders... What game are you playing?...
TDF. Game run by some of the members on the Cycling Weekly Forum. Just a good bit of fun. New members always welcome.
I agree mostyn I enjoyed when I did it and everybody very friendly.
Always worth checking the betting - http://www.oddschecker.com/cycling/tour-de-france/young-rider-classifica...
Bardet, Pinot, Kwiatkowski the favourites.
Couple of years back; I remember Thibaut Pinot was aceing some of the climbs in the TDF Is he still one of the major contenders for a White jersey?
Most people's idea of a MUST in purist I'd have thought......unless he gets the collywobbles on the downhill sections again....let's hope his off season downhill skiing exploits have finally cured it?
It'll be interesting to see who holds it in the early skirmishes up till the first real climbs......Kwia/Sagan/Matthews/Degenkolb or even Slagter
Gentlemen, Thank you for the list and your input to the best of young riders in the TDF. It is very much appreciated.
best regards to all..

Talansky and Tejay are both too old.
In that case RCUK's white jersey piece is totally off the mark then
It does appear that way.
I believe Talansky and Tejay should both be on that list (last year they qualify) and last chance for Talansky to win it, which I think he will this time.

Riders need to be under 25 on 1st January 2014 to qualify, so less than 25 1/2 now.
pcs is procyclingstats
http://www.procyclingstats.com/race/Tour_de_France_2014-Startlist
As there is still no official startlist, I cannot give you a list of young riders, even PCS (Procyclingstats.com) cannot confirm their startlist is 100% correct because there are certain riders that are doubtful
For example, Michael Matthews, I wouldn't want to bet on him starting.... https://twitter.com/nygaardbn/status/484618077293006850/photo/1
So Adam Yates could still get a call up
Check out pcs stats gkam hates them but in regards to birthdays they are correct.
You lost me on the abbreviations; do you have a link to the suggestions? Thanks.
Hi Moyston,
If you ever in doubt about who are the youth riders. I found the best way is to go to Procyclingstats and click on the TOUR, then click on STASTICS, then on right side near top you will see list like this... Ranked, sprinters, TT , u25, it is the UCI points for those riders in THIS TOUR now.
Click U25's and u see all the youth riders for this tour in points ranking order for the year. It certainly helped me find a couple earlier this year.
Good luck, its a tough fantasy sport, as is this forum.
