Fantasy La Vuelta 2006 Game Tips

With just a few days left until the 2006 Vuelta a Espana kicks off, now is a good time to start thinking about your strategy for your team selection for the Fantasy Game. Here's what Grand Prize winner from last year's game, manager "Tim M" from the USA, had to say on his winning 2005 selection:

"For the Vuelta I made sure to get some riders from the non-ProTour team Comunidad Valenciana since like the Giro, those '2nd tier' teams race very hard. Carlos Garcia Quesada rode will last year, and Ruben Plaza is a very good time trialist and I knew that would be important this year. You mostly need riders that will do well overall because they place high on most stages as well as in the KoM and Points competition. With the addition of some sprinters like Petacchi and Thor for the stage points."
