So, the last warm up tour (road cycle race) before the Tour de France starts tomorrow - WEDNESDAY - JUNE 17th
So, as per usual I am running my £5 ‘Winner Takes All’ Set & forget (no transfers) Classic style league hosted on Velogames.
I have a mini-league for this cycle racing tour game and to make it interesting for those that want to compete for small stakes have made my mini league have an optional £5 internal entry fee with the highest finishing paid for team taking all the prize pot.
It’s easy - pick a team within the budget of 100 credits - even if you know nothing about cycle racing as there is no changes to your team allowed once race starts. So, you could end up winning by picking names you like the sound of as racing is really quite hard to predict with crashes, injuries, quitters and team tactics all coming in to play… so why not pays ya money and takes ya chance… who knows it may even cause you to try and see the results online or trying to find some coverage on TV just to see how your chosen riders are getting on. But if not the Velogames website will show your points day by day and at the end of the race whoever finishes highest out of the paid for teams will pocket the cash.
Entry Deadline
The deadline for entries to be submitted is 14:00 CEST (Central European Summer Time) on Wednesday 17th June 2026. That is 13:00 in the UK, and 08:00 on the US East Coast. Make sure to check how your own time zone differs from Central European Time to make sure you meet the entry deadline!
Velogames is a free web site that runs separate fantasy games on cycling races:
Velogames is perfect for those of you that don’t have much time but like to have a go, as the only time you need to spend on any of their games (in my leagues) is at the beginning selecting a team before the start of the race (as there are no changes allowed in their classic format once a race is underway) and I always use that format. Before a race starts you may make changes to your team as much as you like.
League Name: WINNER TAKES ALL
League Code: 660106019
So, click the link, pick a team and then join my private mini league…
I think it’s self-explanatory how the money gets paid out - more paid teams in the league, more money for the winner.
If you want to play for the prize money, then you need to pay before the race starts.
If you don’t know the score regards paying me just PM (Private Message) me from here (the TFP forum) or hit me up on Discord - username ‘bluelionman’ on both my blm fantasy games server and The Fan Pub server.
I really hope to see some of you have a go… even if just for fun and not paying to play.
Best regards,

PS When entering please use your full name and Capital Up your initials as I keep final standings table screen shots for posterity and maintain a winners history for my cycling games here:

(plus put a biking man) next to entries who have paid and are competing for money. I will then confirm in a post after the race starts the prize fund that will go to the highest finisher out of the paid for entries.
