Scoring a few points already is good. Now let's see if Talansky can deliver
Thanks for the awesome pace so far!

Pretty happy with that start. I didn't expect anything at all to be honest.

Siskevicius really stepped up his game with that victory, maybe it was the wrong decisionto let him go after that winter upgrade...great to see him winning though
Groenewegen refused to sprint while Gatto seems to be our man for Algarve sprints. Kelderman very well placed to go for a podium on the last stages, looking forward for the next Algarve update where he can rehabilite himself for Indonesia...
Congrats to Fiskars for an amazing January by the way
edit: just checked and Algarve looks even better with three riders in the top ten and the lead in the teams classification...great TT by Kusnetzov, Gasparotto and Groenewegen, just hoping that the AI gives Wilco the lead up the last stage and not Enrico, Janse and Ludvigsson could be beatable on the climb while Frank could be beaten with the right bonus seconds in a possible sprint...

Petit second in Algarve stage 1, only a breakaway rider in front of him. So close to the first victory of the team

Sidekick = legend
EDIT:
I had no endurance or sprinting skills (I would be perfect in jandal's ICL team)
Two sprint wins, suck it trek

I refuse to believe that Luis León Sánchez with a 5th place in the GC (130 points) and 3rd in the KOM (85 points) has only 215 points total. considering he also has an 12th (1), 8th (6), 3rd (18) place to boot. I order a recount

You only get that many KOM polka points from the TDF, easy mistake to make. |

No problem. I can also make mistake so it's appreciated if some stuff is checked sometimes.

Good work from Siskevicus and Theuns to do well in minor classifications. Very hard luck for Smith

damn what a race Bishkek was...incredible 3rd stage...with an amazing performance by Budyak to finish second...Laas sadly fourth again caused by a break but with that second GC we can ony celebrate
Kusnetzov with a really good Algarve, Top 10 GC as a domestique is amazing...Gasparotto disappointing, while Kelderman couldn´t just take a podium spot away. Janse and Ludvigsson surprisingly strong, great rides

Can't wait to this month is over, and we start the classics...
My development squad once again showed how shit it is, in anything else than cobbles! We took Jack Haig to Algarve as team leader. He's only 23 and could've been on the development team, but he's still young and didn't really show anything in Algarve...
Hopefully our old man Horner will make a good appearance in Mallorca and National Capital Tour!
And really good work with the pace of this game Bikex! It really keeps people interested and give it something different than any other game like this!

Wiggo and Simon Gerrans!

Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.
