As I was notified by Tafiolmo that one of the best Milano - Sanremo creations made by Stylus crashed before showing the podium, I decided to reexport it. Now it should work without issues. The original file was for the older 2014 version of the race (which was never ridden of course). However, I also made one without Pompeiana, corresponding to the current one, even though I don't know how accurate it is on the approach to Turchino. Apart from that I also made small adjustment of the graphics (mainly the landscape and gradients of the "Capi").

Which version, the 2014 or the 2016 one?
edit: In any case, both work fine for me. I don't really know what could be the cause.

As Milano San Remo is a really heavy race, your computer may not be able to handle it completely. Try lowering your graphic options (especially turn off IBs) and report back. Anyway, when does it crash exactly? At which step I mean.

Arnhem - Veenendaal Classic
After making the Dutch stages for Giro 2016, I was thinking what else could I do in the same area. And it turns out that the Arnhem - Veenendaal Classic (formerly known as Dutch Food Valley Classic) uses more or less the same roads. What's more, there is apparently no real variant (at least not in our 2016 database). I couldn't find the 2015 route, so I made a 2014 one as well as variant. This fantasy version is a bit more hill focused, but can still end up in a sprint in a conservative race. Download links are in the opening post, as always.

Thank you, I have been waiting for ages for a more recent version of my home race for ages 
Out of curiosity, do you know which climbs you used in the finale of your fantasy version? I live in Veenendaal so I'd like to know what you would suggest for the race.

The fantasy version basically goes like this. First a couple of hills around Nijmegen (Oude Holleweg twice), then some in Veluwezoom and Arnhem, a lot of short ones near Oosterbeek, before approaching the Veenendaal area where it is:
Grebbeberg - Koerheuvel - Defensieweg - (first passing of the finish line) - Amerongse berg from north side - Defensieweg - Grafheuvel - 3 times a loop with Grebbeberg and Koerheuvel - Defensieweg (8 km before the line in Veenendaal).
I added a detour after the last berg, so that there is still a chance for a (reduced) bunch to catch up. You can see the route here.
I hope you won't be too disappointed with the town of Veenendaal in game. I was too lazy to mimic it realistically

Nice to see you inlcuded Amerongseberg from the north side, the hardest hill in the region but not used in the race in recent years...
Defensieweg is my favourite climb, it's great it being used frequently. Nice route you created here

Dutch championship variants
I also made 2 vraiant courses for Dutch national championships. One is located in Nijmegen and the other in Rhenen. They don't look too hard and PCM classifies them as flat even, but when I tested the Nijmegen race, this was the result:
The race was blown apart on the repeated ascents of Oude Holleweg and riders in front came in groups of 2 or 3.

Kudos to you mate,
those races looking very good. Also I see that they are not 100% autovillage, which means you put some time into them. 
When you crank out races in this speed one can't help wondering how much effort on the scenery, but the pictures shows s great deal.
That is recommendable !!!!
The Dutch Food Valley has been made in 2014 variant previously, not sure if it wasn't in pcm2016 DB. They must have missed it. Then not sure even if the parcour is 100% correct, so your version is more than welcomed. The other is however nicely made too.
Do have a look at the more famous Handzame Classic,
very old and outdated version  and with your skill it could be a smasher.
Haven't tried out the Milan-San Remo yet, but Nijmegen RR was very very well done. City built up with IB houses is highest standard.
Very well done mate !!!!

I looked at the official site already, but I couldn't find the 2015 route before. This file you linked is the Arnhem Veenendaal Tour Classic imo, which is not a UCI race afaik. I did, however, find the timetable for the 2015 race here - link. I might make it, if I don't have anything better to do.
edit: ok, I found out the 2015 route is almost the same as 2014, so I won't do it atm.

If you guys need to know from a local, 2014 version uses Grebbeberg-Grafheuvel as local laps, 2015 uses Grebbeberg-Koerheuvel 4 times and then Grafheuvel once before the line. Koerheuvel and Grafheuvel are pretty comparable

hey there togo, don't know if you'd be interested in making another - often overlooked - race. I'm talking about the 2016 Sibiu Cycling Tour, which contains an interesting MTT for the first time.
In case you want a better view on the stage, all of them can be found here:

Probably not in the near future. Right now I don't have much free time and later I want to focus on races that have no PCM variant made altogether.

Very good decision mate.
Several races still got only cdx-files instead of correct parcours, also some very old races from long ago pcm versions. Somehave just horrible finishes with VIPs, crowds, grandstands crossing the roads. They need to be lifted up to your standard mate.
(You already taken care of some. Very nice)

Heistse Pijl 2016
A race with a fairly impressive list of winners, which seems to be a 1.1 UCI race this year. The parcours is flat with a little cobbled hill in the town of Heist-op-den-Berg, climbed 9 times in total. The last time it comes less than 2 km before the line.

Great stuff mate,
yes this old race has been lifted to 1.1 this year.
Perhaps thanks to be in the very cool Series named
Napoleon Games Cycling Cup, Belgians answer to Coup de France
https://www.napoleongamescyclingcup.be/
Perhaps some of those races needs updating too, and you might find inspiration.
