Is any one else having the problem that every time you load your Be a Pro save file, you get a tutorial for the menu and the first 3d race? I turned off auto-help, tho they keep explaining everything...

I've just got the game yesterday and I've started a Pro Cyclist career. Now I've got the first contracts offered and two are from U23 teams. From what I've read there's some issues with U23 teams, so if go into one what kind of problems can I expect?
thanks |

Nothing we can do, it's generally bugged 
I do not see it as a bug, you get points for the first breakaway for more the 25, 50, 75 and 100 km.(I think), and for the first win, i every race cat., f.eks. HC and 1.2, and 1.1 and so on  |

Is it advisable to put your training to 0 or 1 after the last races in October or keep it on 3. Does it have an effect on your next season startup tiredness, better form etc ? |

same here as of latelly i only get the 25km and 50km bonus. in my first year i was in a breakaway in the WC for almost 200km and only got the 20km and 50km.
it may have something to do with the changes they did in the last patch to reduce the leveling speed, maybe?
but if that is the case i would prefer they had the 50km and the 100km bonus since it makes more sense. |

Nice if that works for you? Are you playing with the standard database? In my game I get first 25, 50km breakaway continental for every breakaway But no 75 or 100km bonus. |

I am playing with PCM database, and I am not 100% sure about the bonus, but I get a lot the time I am in a breakaway So I just ment it was at 25, 50, 75, 100 km. and so on |

I think it's bugged as well. For example in one of my later years I never got bonusses, the group broke really early in a mt stage. After the stage I suddenly got a bonus for top 3, top 5 and 25, 50km break. So the XP system is definately not working correctly |

If you start with at a younger age, for example 19/20, do you develop faster as opposed to starting at 22 years of age? |

Have anyone experianced this bug: I won the race(the american nationals) then I see the podium and all. But then after the race I stand as retired and now I stand as injured...And the injury is ''breach of coccyx'' or something like that, and it ends in mid juli so will loose the tour de france to then...
So any one experianced this? Dont know if this is the right place to ask, since dont know if this is general bug, just be a pro bug or what it is... |

Is it even possible to win the Giro/Tour double? If I try I end up winning the Giro, but my form and freshness in the Tour are so bad that it is impossible. Anyone here who have managed to take the double?

Climber mostly. Stage-racer does as well and I think there was 1 other(was it fighter?) type that improves it as well.
Feyenoord(football) and Kelderman fanboy

While I have not managed to win it myself, I've been close and did finish top 5 in Giro, Tour and Vuelta in the same season. Was in great shape for all three races. Did no races and little training the month before, but put in a lot of training the last week before the GT. Would have gotten better results if I was slightly better at hills and mountain.

Faster and better 
@Jesley sprinter I believe
24/02/21 - kandesbunzler said “I don't drink famous people."
15/08/22 - SotD said "Your [jandal's] humour is overrated"
11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant."

I managed the triple with no fatigue, so you're obviously doing something wrong. Too much intensive training? No rest after Giro + tour? |

Can you actually control your pro with a keyboard or controller (pedalling, braking and so on) or is just the same as career mode?
Because i saw a video of consoles versions that is like that, that you have full control of a single rider. But i cannot buy it there because it must have real names.
Thank you! |
