Thanks for the good response everyone! I've been quite nervous about posting it but I'm glad you like it.
Some of the choices matter and some don't. For a more detail answer, look under the spoiler:

There are basically four different endings, of which 1-3 are variants of each other. These are effected by the choices you make during chapters 14-20. Originally I had planned for seven endings, including one where you win the mountain jersey (with a more detailed rivalry with Voeckler).
Regarding things like Quintana actually being good; I started writing in June and haven't really changed the results based on this years Tour, otherwise I would've made Dylan Groenewegen win the green jersey
I thought so! Regarding to the spoiler:

I tried to go for KoM in my last playthrough but I had no other chances later on to take the KoM. Instead I ended up winning the Tour... by accident

It's a great game. Would be amazing to see even a greater variety of choices. Like the option to be a sprinter instead or something
Yeah, that's definitely something I wanted to do more of but I had planned on just writing 10-20k words, it ended up being around 30k, so I felt I had to wrap it up.
And at the end of Stage 15 I was +1.44 (behind Quintana) on the GC but after stage 16 I was +3.12, (behind Quintana) even though I finished in the front group, then after stage 17 where I finished with Quintana I was now +1.03 to him. As well as on stage 20, which I began in third, 1 minute down, on the final climb I was told I was in the yellow jersey which was a little bit confusing but not game breaking. I can udnerstnd how it's hard to avoid mistakes liike that though, must be hard working out the time gaps.
Yeah, that's basically what I spent the weekend doing, but I obviously messed it up somehow
-Stage 10 has the profile of stage 9 shown
-the rest day is on the wrong day,in your game it's after the 14thstage while it was in reality after the 16th
For the Andorra stage, the profile is the Pau stage.
This is really superb.

Great initiative but i am grammar-nazi, so the mistake in name of the thread bothers me. "La" is italian, in french it should be "Le" Grande Boucle.
Boucle is feminine, hence the feminine version of Grand, so it is La

Seriously guys, your nice comments warm my heart (and my ego)
Lol, Sabatini is 10th in the GC after the Pyrenees in my game
Btw what happens if Id take the Direct-Energie Team?
Edit: k before the Culoz stage I'm before Pinot and despite him bing behind me in that Stage, he overtakes me in the GC? And after I finished in the pack in the Bern stage I dropped form 5th to 11th place?
That robs my motivation a bit at the moment.
Oh and Froome seems to be American in this game. Good to know

Did that too, I've tried to achieve each ending, I've won it on purpose, by accident, and came third. Lots of fun but only for the first two times. Would love it if there were more options, would be awesome, however I can see how time consuming it must already be

That's one reason more to try and play with Direct Energie then. At least for me.
