11th, can't complain since Sobota always over performs, but seriously, our strategy need to be to follow Lavoine, to keep Fablok from getting to me points on us. .
Btw sgdanny, 12 wins?! We're on 3.
Thwnks for the report the rider and congrats sgdanny.

Yeah great
Hopefully we can break the curse tomorrow and finally get 3 wins in a row Knowing Lavoine he will have an off day and hopefully it won't cost too much

Fablok and Novatek seem to be winning everything at the moment. Good to see.
Nateghi being somewhat consistent is always nice as well.
Thanks for the report!

Lavoine has to go down as one of the top signings of the season. So much success, for just a 75k free agent wage. Congrats to sgdanny for that! Serebriakov having a much better season this year too.

Matthews up to 4th, we're happy with that, and not too far behind the podium. Watch your back Forero |

Thanks, he can with some lucky diversity of the hilly classics, have enough points to take the CT rankings
Overall a good deal and I will have a hard time listening to offers for him xD

Positive: Lavoine loses time to Serebriakov
Positive: Serebriakov is consistent
Negative: Serebriakov is consistent
GC overall still in sight, plus a good stage by Pozdnyakov and Iglinski as well does ensure a few more riders up high in the GC.
Thanks for the reports so far

But thanks for the report again. |

not having Drujon here got a price, Lavoine hopefully only have this day off...
Also good having GC still, but hope to have a train tomorrow and damn not getting 3 wins in a row, the AI hates me on that part xD Serebiakov gotta get an off day soon, so please don't lose the leader jersey tomorrow
Gratz to Actavis

Good win for kuboki. Nateghi going missing when needed again today. Hopefully he can at least maintain his overall position.
Thanks for the report!

Half way through the race, my thoughts:
- Selwink doesn't seem to be too happy with the big Russian, but 3 second places is good going in any race, especially when some others like Mezgec don't turn up at all. Count your lucky chickens!
- Speaking of Mezgec: he looks to have drawn the short straw here. Not contesting the sprints for no good reason. A pity that it happens in a goal race. About that goal: I'm not sure why someone would target the points jersey in a sprinters' stage race! But, that's just me.
- Some good showings for Nateghi, are his team bouncing back from a dry spell? Also Team Type 1 are having a bit of a renaissance of late!
- Lavoine continues his amazing season. Bonsucro would have launched a bid for him, after he was winning in PCT last season, if we weren't after Castaneda! Amazing start to the race, a bit off on stage 3, more stage wins for him? What a bargain! Could he take the CT rankings? Last season most top sprinters ended up around 25th, this season, what 3,4 or 5, are in the top 10 currently.
- Kuboki takes stage 3 then. Probably the hilliest profile, which would effect the sprint, of the race playing to his advantage. Will he be in the GC running though, with those up ahead? Stage 6 looks to have some hills in it, another win for the Japanese there? No gratz to Activis from me though, looking at you sgdanny: save that for those who comment and are here to receive it! |

Good stage 2 for Razzie getting a top 5. And he didn't feature on stage 3, but somehow still stayed in the group.
Good reports from The Rider, but could I just ask one thing? It'd be nice to have the profile of each stage at the top of the report, so I can jog my memory at what the stage parcours are like.

First off, screw you.
Second, get in there Kazushige!
Third, those are some pretty screenshots accompanying the reports. Maxed out graphics?

My sprinters can't fend for themselves, they need a good team around them but I don't have the riders to supply Kankovsky and Thorsen together. This is providing me with some headaches this season.

My god, what has happened to Forero? I did not know he was aware of the concept of consistency! Keep this up please *increases tempo of totem-pole dancing up to frantic*
