PrintFeb 21st Geneva - We are proud to announce our inaugural Team Lady Marmottes WVDS Team.
Team Lady Marmottes expects a Wild and Slamova season. Of Corset does.
Even if some of our riders are Olds, we have a strong Brand. Hopefully, none of the ladies will be Fahlin off a Cliff-Ryan. And we don't expect to be waiting for Godart.
We predict another Immaculada Tour de France victory from Pereiro , and some Dutch masterpieces from Van Gogh.
Team Chef: Cooke Team Minister: Abbot Team Captain Mooooolman
If you don't like our team, go Fouquet and talk to the Hahn.
PS - Be afraid Majope
Team Kit:
Remember to get your WVDS team entered before the Wednesday deadline

One of the best posts ever
A bike should have a voice... it should speak to you, and you should hear it, and what it should say is: "Attack!" - sminer
And we don’t expect to be waiting for Godart
For me, this is the line that lifted it into the realm of genius.
My favourite was
talk to the Hahn
But did the shirt have its inspiration with Barbie’s mirror?
Nice, but this will not help you. Picking riders because
they fit into some poem.
Briljiant post, sir!
And I am afraid, Will—very afraid, nay, terrified—of your superior punmanship. Your team, on the other hand…
(Incidentally, we do have one overlapping rider. All will be revealed soon.)

Got to be a rec ord. Good luck! And watch out for the Blue Crab Bikers.
The skills really do go away if not practiced, and I don't mean to brag but I was getting very mediocre. - Tejay Van Garderen
i rec'd it too
it’s the team kit that did it for me.
"Ants don’t worry, they operate like a fantastic team, they accept obstacles and deal with them in a positive manner, they don’t complain and remain positive. An ant doesn’t work on emotion, is proactive and always chooses the ant role."
yep. that team kit is a kicker.
"Wizard's first rule. People are stupid. They will believe anything they want to be true or fear to be true." -- Terry Goodkind
The whole thing is brilliant
Bravo!

Bahahahaha. But you have the Vancouver marmotte too?!
Yours should meet mine. It’s called Fabian.
Dos cervezas por favor!
Er...not to be picky or anything, Willj, but are the Lady Marmottes strictly legal?
You are not allowed to spend more than 100 points on riders costing 25 points or more.
Kirsten Wild=40
Mara Abbott=35
Nicole Cooke=30
total: 105
Uh oh.

Sandbagger!
Publishing a decoy team to get our guards down. Crafty.

Heh heh.
Let me know the real line up when you get a chance. I need to know—you know, for the spreadsheet.

I fired Van Gogh and Abbot
and signed Van Vleuten and Slappendel (before I knew that they had treasonously also signed with the Chamois Barbies
moo
Oh, sure. Pick the best from the rival team.
I mean, of course I believe you. Fully. 100%.
And to make up for my snark, I am sending your team a lovely tenderloin of beef.

Hmph. I have reduced her salary

This is seriously distubing news.
Ris, Kim Andersen and Aldag all cheated and now this.

Surprisingly not
Jens is tidying up some details right now and I don’t want to upstage him with the few titbits he’s shared with me, but the most popular rider was on 51% of teams and people found lots of different ways to spend their points. Of course we don’t know how much of that is down to the random “never heard of any of them” teams, but we’re going to be positive and pretend that that is a tiny minority.
