Decent Giro start for Nairo so far.
Loving the "battle of the titans"-banner, the startlist is crazy strong even looking below the big 4. No way Duarte will defend his GC top ten from last season.
Yup but arguably, I still have a better feeling for Contador in this monster line-up than I have for most other races, including Vuelta (I'm that afraid of Mochema by now?). There's just a lot of stages where mountain goats can score points, no way any of us would have pushed such a chance aside.

Cav the best sprinter at the Giro? Not even the best in my team!
Come on get your act together for stage 4, no categorised climbs, it may be our only hope

2 more stages of both Giros posted: https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....st_1137169
This time me and my computer failed on quite a lot of levels:
#1 I promised you a video for the last mountain stage of Valle d'Aosta, I also did record the stage, but somehow the recording software crashed and so 3/4 of the video is a freeze frame, that's why I didn't upload it.
#2 I apparently forgot to export Giro stage 4. I usually in that case got the result from the cdb file, but with PCM15 the excel editor can't open these files anymore, that's why I only put the top 30 of the stage here. No rider lost any time in that stage. If you want to know the result for a specific rider please tell me, I then can look it up.
#3 At that 4th stage one of my Control Riders somehow got into the top 20 and by that got points for the points jersey, which of course should not happen, so I'm very sorry for that. This influences the points for these riders: Haller, Blythe, Cardoso. As I'm not able to edit the cdb as stated, I for now will ignore this, as they all probably won't have an influence on the Points rankings. After the last stage I manually will add a point for those three, so the result will be correct in the end. |

If you are still playing the Giro you can still re export it I think, going back to Stage 4 when you load the file

No problem for me if Blythe misses out on a few points - if you rerun stage 4 Cav will probably miss the podium! Keep up the good work - the odd problem in no way spoils my enjoyment of this great game .

5 stages , 4 times podium for CarbonSports (no win). Continuity is the key so far. Ciolek even with decent chances for the point jersey although the stage racers will hunt them.
Coquard is a beast in this race.

3 in a row, of course! Ahh, the pink jersey is gone, but is it gone for ever?
Even as lucky as they have been, fortunately, there is no way they will be in pink at the end of stage 6: he says. Two more top 10s for us: very sweet.
Expecting a great, close, battle between the favourites next then maybe some Italian wins?!
Thanks Bikex and well done for ploughing through with the game being scatty. All of these videos are excellent but don't go crazy with them! |

Giro d'Italia still going steady for us, Nieve not losing any more time and Schär and Rast joining breaks is quite good.
It looks like Auer may have abandoned Giro Aosta which is a bit of a shame, although Roinas is still racing well.
Once again thanks bikex for the amazing speed of your updating.

Scott Davies. Wow. Now just hold on for one more stage for our first ever overall win in the U23s.
Nice to see Simon Yates in the top 10 in the big boy Giro but I'm just waiting until the third week. Get this GC silliness sorted pronto so the Yates' can clean up.

sadly Laas had an off day, but a top 10 GC of my main sprinter on a mountains tour would´ve been too amazing...
that 3rd place on the mountain stage was just stunning

Really disappointed with how Guardini is sprinting if I am honest. He is pretty similar to Coquard, so for him to grab a hattrick of wins iswith Guardini pretty ordinary is frustrating to say the least.
Cavendish has disappointed also I suppose.
Rosa nabs a podium which is some consolation.

Lászlo Rácz you beautiful genius 4th place in a stage and leading the KOM by a margin \o/ Varro also catches a point.
I like new rules for the U23 teams a lot

Bye bye leader's jersey it was fun while it lasted, maybe Navarro can make a last kamikaze attack but if not I'm good when Engeldinger doesn't win everything ;(
I also need a sprinter one of these days but looking at that fat slow poke Cavendish, I probably end up overpaying him too.
Enjoy your holidays!

Sadly, no Giro for today most likely, I can partly make up for it with some California
Stage 1 and 2 up, will post other 2 later this afternoon, but don't want to screw up the calendar too much

Field is a bit too good for VDP. Seeing how Talansky failed throughout the season last year, I am actually quite surprised he won here.

Y u hate Engeldinger?
Also sprinters are overrated. I can't recommend anybody to sign them
