now you guys are discussing Cancellara, i've won MSR with him  he was +5 so completely unstoppable. I attacked in Poggio downhill. I had just enough time on Hushovd to hold him of in the sprint, he came close but still 1 length away Chavanel got 3rd.
Earlier in my career i've won Nieuwsblad with him. On the last paved section Langeveld went and Chavannel countered. They were no match for Fabian in the sprint who could easily counter Langevelds attack.

Nice start so far, i will also try Sky-extreme once i will find the solution to my pc problem, Sky should be fun. 
It is indeed fun with lots of nice challenges, love it so far 
So continuing, Omlopp ended in a bunch sprint. Boonen won, where Geraint Thomas came 2nd, Flecha 6th and EBH 7th, so not too bad. Boonen was amazing though. Kuurne ended up in a break win, I tried to catch them but it was like I couldn't and AI just wouldn't let me do it and...Rojas won
At Stande Bianche Thomas came 4th and EBH 8th, Rodriguez won from a late attack. At Vuelta a Murcia Rogers came 2nd in his first race in long time and Henao 6th. Rui Costa won it. So not bad prep for WTraces.
At Paris Nice, Van Summeren attacked on stage 2. I did all I could but he couldn't be caught, similar to Kurrne. He got 3 minutes advantage over everybody. EBH won 2 stages and took Points Jersey. Knees was amazing and brought shit loads of breaks and won himself KoTM jersey. Thomas and Uran ended 16th and 17th respectively. And Wiggins won a hilly stage and came 2nd to Kreuziger in the Time Trial loosing by +0'. Wiggo ended up 3rd in GC minimally behind Kreuziger and Van Summeren. EBH got god 4th.
At Tirreno, Rogers lead the team. He got few tops 10 and a podium and got great 4th in GC, didn't expect that. Svistov got 15th and Henao 20th.
Moving to MSR, good break formed but was caught at the end...only 2 riders survived classified same time as peleton ...Van Winden won and Cataldo came 2nd. EBH came 3rd to our disappointed winning the bunch sprint. Thomas came 10th. Still nice result. EBH is leading the WT standings, so that's a nice bonus

Well, last weekend, i played Fleche Wallone, with a custom team, Marcato and Bakelants as liders. I Played in extreme level. There was all the greatest ardennes riders. In last 20 kms, i attacked with M. Kreder to move the peloton. Purito also attacked, so I put Marcato to his wheel. At 12 kms to finish, there was a small group with schleck's, cunego, gilbert, purito, samu sanchez and my Marcato, Bakelants was reserving energy at the peloton. So, at 7 kms to the finish, Gilbert attacked and left behind us. But, at the beginig of HUY,he was caught by the peloton, so, in that moment, i put Bakelants the dot button, with 99%, he launch to the front, put to the gilbert's wheel, and, in the finals 600 mts, click in the Sprint button and won the fleche wallone

I just started a carreer with Liquigas, i'm trying to play everythin in 3D therefore i only play one stage a day.
I'm at TdU now. No strong Squad only Viviani and Capechi.
Viviani scored a top-10 at first stage and 14th at 3rd stage.
Capecchi is aiming for a good GC on Willunga and maybe KoM.
1st an 3rd stage were won by Haussler and 2nd by Devolder.

Endura career, first season, at the Worlds the early break went all the way with a 2 minute gap to Gilbert/Cunego/Rodriguez/Valverde who chased like crazy in the last 30km. As a result Betancur became world RR champion! |

The free riders at the beginning of 2012. I actually have to admit it... I think it's kinda funny.

Scarponi has to be the most unlucky rider in my game...
2011:
- Injured in the Giro after 7 stages, back in July
- Injured in the Vuelta after 4 stages
2012:
- Injured in the Giro after 3 stages, back in mid-August
It's gonna be fun to see what Leopard does now since they've lost A. Schleck and Scarponi will no doubt be injured again. The best rider they have now is Frank. |

Just finished PN with Lotto Belisol, finished 14th overall with Meersman and De Greef won the KOM jersey. With 2 stages to go in TA, Vanendert is 7th overall with an outside shot at the podium. Van den Broeck will go to Catalunya with Vanendert going to the Criterium International. Playing on hard for the first time too

While Im bored in college.
I set myself a challenge with Colnago CSF, really fun team to play with, I want to build them into a WT team using the majority Italian riders only. I will sign other nationalities, but maybe 1 or 2 every now and then.
Started a Calabria, 3 main riders I sent where, Modolo, Brambilla and Pirazzi. Brambilla won the first stage and secured the GC on the final stage, Modolo after hard work from everyone on my team won the sprint on the final stage.
Next was the Tour of Oman, were I sent Pozzovivo and Battaglin wiht Stavini. Pozzovivo and Battaglin were out of form and low fitness and finished well down on Andy Schleck the winner. Now at Giro Sardigna with Pozzovivo, Battaglin and Stavini.
Currently Pozzovivo is 2nd overall behind Brutt, Battaglin won the first stage ahead of Pozzovivo, but we couldnt control the attacks of Cunego and Brutt and lost the jersey. Pozzovivo went on a 100km break with Battaglin to help him half the way. This forced the peleton to crumble into many groups. He was caught by the group of favourites with 5km to go and finished within the group on stage 4. With one stage to go he lies 38 seconds down.
Really enjoying the game after I messed up my Lotto Belisol save by poor results through x8 all the time
