Would've been kinda weird to post the results before the deadline, wouldn't it jandal?
1. Name a UCI 1.2/2.2 race
I expected various answers, but not like this! The best answer here was Baltic Chain Tour, which brought the majestic amount of two points. Surprise surprise, the rest was 1. Also impressive was the one wrong answer, despite there being so many correct ones 
Spoiler Baltic Chain Tour 2x
Tour Alsace 1x
Berner Rundfahrt 1x
Rutland-Melton 1x
Tour Cycliste Féminin International de l'Ardèche 1x
Memorial Grundmanna I Wizowskiego 1x
Vuelta Republica Dominicana 1x
Horizon Park Race Maidan 1x
Tour du Limousin 1x
Paris-Troyes 1x
Circuit de Wallonie 1x
Vuelta a Guatemala 1x
Tour de Normandie 1x
Tour de Bretagne 1x
Volta ao Alentejo 1x
Gran Premio de San José 1x
2. Name a team that will race in the CT in 2017
Again 2 was the maximum score for this question, though this time three teams were mentioned more than once. Jelly Belly, JLT Condor and Team Wiggins guaranteed the two, and again the rest got one. Jandal's correct 5-pointer was ruined here as well.
Spoiler Jelly Belly 2x
Team Wiggins 2x
JLT Condor 2x
Team Hrinkow Advarics 1x
Sauerland NRW 1x
SkyDive Dubai 1x
Sporting Tavira 1x
Axeon 1x
Vino 4Ever 1x
One ProCycling 1x
Kolss 1x
Rally Cycling 1x
Budget Forklifts 1x
BabyDump 1x
3. Name a race that’s no longer on the calendar
Again a variety of answers, including the Route du Sud, which is obviously still being raced. The Critérium International came on top with 4, the Tour de Beijing was the only race mentioned more than once with 3.
Spoiler Critériumn International 4x
Tour of Beijing 3x
Bayern Rundfahrt 1x
Roma Maxima 1x
USA Pro Cycling Challenge 1x
Route du Sud 1x
Lancaster Classic 1x
Wincanton Classic 1x
Memorial Cimurri 1x
Nashua Broadband Tshwane Capital Classic 1x
Trofeo Baraggi 1x
Deutschland Rundfahrt 1x
4. Name a cyclist who’s nowadays known as more than a cyclist
This question could obviously be interpreted in hundreds of ways, but eventually Lance Armstrong, also known as dopehead, cheater and dick, and Peter Sagan, known for less negative stuff, both got 3 mentions, while anyone else only got 1.
Spoiler Lance Armstrong 3x
Peter Sagan 3x
Bjarne Riis 1x
Thijs Zonneveld 1x
Tayler Wiles 1x
Tom Southam 1x
Eddy Merckx 1x
Adam Hansen 1x
Héctor Guerra 1x
Greg Lemond 1x
Bradley Wiggins 1x
Chris Boardman 1x
Mads Kaggestad 1x
5. Name a col that’s been climbed less than 5 times in the Tour de France
Col du Grand Colombier was the standout answer here with 4 mentions. La Planche des Belles Filles and Col de la Bonette both got two. Shoutout to the Aubisque which has been clumb 48 times. Any climb would've been correct for a 5 pointer, heck I would even have accepted Zoncolan.
Spoiler Col du Grand Colombier 4x
Col de la Bonette 2x
La Planche des Belles Filles 2x
Auden's Col 1x
Col du Corobin 1x
Col d'Entremont 1x
Col du Berthiand 1x
Col du Noyer 1x
Mur de Huy 1x
Col d'Aubisque 1x
Col de Buttertubs 1x
Ballon d'Alsace 1x
With such a variety of answers and a relatively small amount of participants, the scores are obviously low. The winners, with a whopping 12 points, are Marcovdw and baseballlover312. Just one point down we find fjhoekie, SSJ2Luigi and Aquarius97. However anyone could still win this one, even those who missed round one. At the bottom, we find three correct 5-pointers.

Could you please mark in red the incorrect answers so that correct 5 pointers are easier to follow? Thanks!

I'll take any points I can get over the others, so happen with a win even with such small victory margins. This next round is gonna be a doozy too.

That went somewhat better than expected Lance Armstrong and Grand Colombier were on the top of my tongue but I decided Grand Colombier must've been climbed more and that question meant as a DS or something. Should've kept Zoncolan for the 5th too.
Thanks Selwink and congrats BBL/Marco, even tougher round next though.

Participation has dropped even further, but the score was higher in this round. Roturn eventually came on top with a score of 16, trekbmc comes 2nd with 15. 3 correct 5 pointers, though I don't think Marcovdw planned it.

In the overall it's baseballlover312 taking the solo lead, though the lead is absolutely minimal and could get ruined in 1 round. Marcovdw drops from shared 1st to shared 8th.

Happy to be in the lead obviously. Surprised Manhattan didn't get any other votes as the center of New York City, but maybe that just my American bias. Europeans probably wouldn't even know that Manhattan is an island I suppose.

That went better then expected.  Missing Nauru and Manhatten was a shock but it ended ok. Congrats Roturn and BBL, and thanks Selwink!
