It's that time of year again folks!! PM me for the 'GB Bikers' league PIN. If you've never had a go at this have a look at this link. It's free to enter and you can win yourself a brand new Yamaha YZF-R125 worth £5800. (Bit of a downturn from last years R6, but you can always sell it if you ride something bigger) There are also other 'round' prizes up for grabs. http://mcn.fantasyleague.comGood luck.

Do you get more points if in a league?
Or can you win out right on your own?

You play and win on your own. The GBB league adds a bit of extra fun in trying to beat your league mates to be top at the end of the season. If you win prizes along the way then it's defo a bonus. I play to win the big prize, but want to take another Kit Kat Chunky off Woody again  (this is a private wager)

It is obvious really, but you want to spend most money on your MOTOGP riders. 18 MOTOGP rounds, 13 SBK and 12 BSB.

Is that so. There are 2 races per BSB and WSB so you get 50 points if you get race winners rather than 25 for 1 MotoGP

Yeah you get more points in wsb and I think that's how people have won before by getting the better wsb riders.

To get the most points you need to look at how many races are in each transfer window and use your 3 transfers wisely.
E.g the first window
3 rounds WSBK (6 races) = 300 max points 3 rounds Motogp (3 races) = 150 points 1 round BSB (2 races) = 50 points
Then make changes for window 2 because theres.....
1 round WSBK (2 races) = 50 max points 2 rounds Motogp (2 races) = 50 points 2 rounds BSB (4 races) = 100 points
an so on

3 rounds WSBK (6 races) = 150 max points 3 rounds Motogp (3 races) = 75 points 1 round BSB (2 races) = 50 points
CORRECTION !!!
3 rounds WSBK (6 races) = 300 max points 3 rounds Motogp (3 races) = 150 points 1 round BSB (2 races) = 50 points
Then make changes for window 2 because theres.....
1 round WSBK (2 races) = 50 max points 2 rounds Motogp (2 races) = 50 points 2 rounds BSB (4 races) = 100 points

Results after round 1. Transfer window is now open if you want to change your crap riders  Woody's Wonders has drawn first blood in the GGB league with a score of 335 closely followed by Team Sheene only 26 points behind. Until this weekend's BSB meet Woody's Wonders were in joint 1st place overall, but they have slipped back to a still very impressive 33rd overall. Round 2 starts this weekend and it's a busy one with the MotoGP and BSB guys. COME ON!

Hmm I'm not doing too badly at 11 in our little league. Transfer windows is open by the way. I've already juggled my team around. Gone for better WSB and BSB riders  Now I'm going for a tactical play rather than with my heart

END OF ROUND 2 UPDATE: Wow! Some eventful racing over the last few weeks has changed the mid table around quite a bit. Top 3 are keeping stable. Woody is losing his grip on top spot and the those in the top 10 bunching up which is giving us some nail biting competition. Transfer window is open.

Think I'll make some small changes to my team, my previous ones paid off well especially as simoncelli managed to finish a race!
