Result


After a long day in the break of the day Mathieu survived with an attacking group from behind for a Top 10 place. Ulissi took the race with an attack in front of Bongiorno. The breakaway companions Conti and Bystrom also managed to get a good place, while all our other riders had no chance to reach one of the first places.

What else?


On the bright side, we are consistantly scoring points, getting in the top five almost every race. That´s especially amazing when we look at surprising performaances, like Lasse Hansens P4 at the Driedaagse. Lieuwe is continuing to take podium places at the races in Belgium.
On the darker side we are changing this story a little. I am feeling that we need some progress if this story should continue to attract you guys. I´ve learned that a custom team can involve you less than a real team. It´s pretty hard to involve you into the story, so let´s mix it up.
We will increase the pace by only showing you results of races, which are not our main goals. The ones who follow this can see how the team is doing, and we can quickly move on to the off-season, where it´s easier to involve you looking at the transfers.
I hope you all can accept this decision, maybe we can add some new flair to this. The Lotto-Soudal-career-report by shonak is kind of an example how this will look like; we won´t be that fast but with a similar structure.

Only Burghardt is missing, but he had not a single race without being on the worst freshness :/

We will for sure slow it down for the major races, but like this we are faster these races.
Additionally, palmares and calender will be updated each month...

Maaskant and Balck on one of their target races, Burghardt and Vandewalle brought the couple nicely up to the fore. This race was massively influenced by sidewind, however our two domestiques could shof their strength here.

Damn it, I´m so sad now, but this story will end now...

Firstly I want to thank you all, I was enjoying the story a lot, especially when we built up this story together.
Also I want to thank the_hoyle for being just amazing. He created a great pack for this story, and I´m hoping that this enormous graphics created by him will last long through this site. Hopefully I have his trust for maybe some future projects of me, I can´t imagine any better supporter than you...

The main reason for this is PCM15. Once started playing it it´s hard to go back to PCM14...
Additionally I had some trouble motivating me to be correct with all the screenshots and racing reports, further stories will be more focussed on the narrative part than on the pure report of PCM.
The team was really cool to play with, a lack of one sprinter maybe but clearly nice. Trouble for me was a little bit that the team had no special regional flair (like for example Topsport Vlaanderen/Bardiani/FDJ)...it´s harder to build up a legendary team like Sutty did with the NOvo story by using a custom team with too much regions like we had her...

I will surely do a PCM15 story in the future, and I have the feeling you might find some protagonists of this story there. I´m not sure whether it will be another team- or a first try of a one-rider story, but if you liked my style be attracted to the PCM15 story section earlier or later...
Also the idea of managing the riders of a team together will last longer than this story.

Here´s a banana for you guys, who followed this until the end Banana
