Solid podium by Betancur at Strade Bianche. He looked so strong in that video, but Nibali doing his thing is unstoppable. Nibalis classics tactic seems to pay off.
It's starting to get a little spooky with Allianz 
At least it shouldn't be too hard to isolate Barguil in the mountains.
And finally: Ahh the flemish classics, always a good competition between Vegeta and Ecopetrol for the worst cobbles team.

Rafal Majka with a great GC win in Pais Vasco, taking the final stage and points classifications to boot. it's gonna be so hard saying goodbye to him next season 
nice that the season of "why are we even here" has started nicely with a 104th place in Omloop XD

3 stages Tachira and first two stages Paris - Nice posted.
Had some problems with my computer (graphic card propably) so now some graphic settings were reduced. But I don't think that's much visible in the screenshots.  |

Bettiol first of the peloton and second place on stage 4  (I know he was in the break but technically  )
Nieve staying within 36 seconds of the lead with most the contenders so I'm happy with him so far. 
Thanks for more stages bikex

Great to see him taking the stage win here to make this trip here successful for us. Wearing Leaders and and Points Jersey for a day is a nice extra
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

So far Bakelants and especially Verona are holding up well. Last year, sending Herrada and Verona to Giro did not work out properly, I hope that this season they can finally strip away the rep of talents and get some real success.

Average results for us, nothing more, nothing less.
Thanks for the incredibly quick pace Bikex. Also Allianz needs to calm the f*ck down.

Omloop: My cobbles leader Vandenberg finishes 51st what a start to the cobbles season.
Roma Maxima: Pibernik and Iglinskiy beat Vandenbergh. OMG. I'll never ever give a sh*t about cobbles.
Strade Bianche: 8th, 14th and 18th is a pretty good Team Result. I'm especially flattered by Kudus' performance. However, 8th is not where Kwiatkowski should be.
Tachira: Just boring. Some top10s, meh.
brewers: I don't even hope you'll ever win anything, because it would mean much less joy for all of us (no offense)
Allianz: Tell me how you do that. Now!!
bikex: Thanks for that incredible pace.

2 more stages at Tachira and Paris - Nice posted: https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....st_1134416
I'm also about to finish the folder for the reporters so if you have PCM15 and want to help out with reporting races anytime this season, doesn't have to be anytime soon, please PM me, so I can send you a link and instructions. Even if you already have sent a PM before please do so, because I already got some but am not entirely sure anymore of all the ones who did.
Spoiler On the results of Italo lately:
Tachira yet again seems to become an exceptional result for the team after it already won three classics at the beginning of the month. I know it might seem suspicious but I can assure you I haven't manipulated anything and these are the results of my first and only playthrough. Nobody openly posted something about that they'd suspect something similar, but I just want to prevent that comments like that appear as I've seen in similar occasions before.
I even would prefer my team not to do so well, as I'd like it to be more of a team that's just below the top, as I believe winning my own game is something rather weird.^^
The current results already make me feel akward.  |

Nieve just won't follow attacks for some reason... he seems (I assume) to just sit in the main group, never being dropped but never following any attacks, it's really annoying...
Thanks for the updates though bikex

Bikex now you gotta be f*ing kidding me
Caruso? The same rider we were almost going to swap for Wackermann? There's no f*ing way  Now besides being pissed off because our team doesn't perform I also need to regret not buying him? 
Spoiler Btw I still trust you to be honest, I wouldn't be comfortable to be in that situation either, that's top of awkwardness for sure
Ah then I see Cataldo, last year Continental dominator, is underperforming terribly. We aren't Lotto NL or something, where all riders get worse than before, eh Meanwhile, Diego Rosa, the rider I swapped Cataldo with, is going so much better. Seems 100% legit.
It's both heartwarming and disheartening to see that someone is going even worse than us though. *waves at Shonak*

After a bad day on stage 5, VDB where he should be.
Italo - . I guess the good karma coming back to Bikex for all of his efforts! Though, I am a bit nervous about seeing the next rankings update now. :[] |

Won't complain for once
Hesjedal with some very good racing so far, had not expected that of him. Hopefully he can climb the GC a bit further with a bit of luck

Hofland/Van Poppel should really do better in Tachira. As should Wellens. Our great season start has come to a full stop, it seems.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Damn it, Kelderman with a horrible performance in France once again this season. Chernetskiy though with a great opening prologue.
