Kripovets sticking his nose in the wind for the first time, some nice work. Should've sent him to SA instead though maybe, looking how much influence the ITT had there.
Kristasis with good positioning, but then sadly couldn't hold on till the end. Still the Top 10 is a decent result

I had hoped for an attacking race of my team, seeing how i chose the riders for this race, but sadly no one did anything, and we'll have to be satisfied with a 15th place

Well 7th is good, Vauner needs to pick up some pace tho, it's his first race of the season.. I trust he'll do better.
Congratz Antler! and thank you Jandal.

La Pitagora has been doing well so far, there seems to be good depth in the squad as we've had strong results with different riders on multiple terrains.

And that certainly makes it a strong month, with O'Fathach joining Eruzione in taking a January victory.
Some great detail in the sprint jandal, lots of action to cover in the final 300m.

SORRY IF THIS RUINS YOUR PLANS
Made a mistake with two categorisations. Singapore is Cat.B, Verviers-Liege is Cat.A

I believe I'm missing 15 points in the team ranknig because you put Masters in a "different" team
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Sweet rankings
some mountain dominance is a nice change from the other story games for me - has been quite some time since EPIC 
Spoiler (although once again my team is very unbalanced. I guess i cannot do but go all in one one terrain  )
Most of my leaders and Ruta America del Sur local hero Hector Tesfaye Herrera are in action in February so i probably should continue to perform in the next month
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Thanks for the ranking update!
I don't really know where we should be, so i'll assume that 10th it's fine since our two leaders haven't raced yet in a suited route

8th is right arround my expectations I guess. Taking into account Hummels hasn't raced so far (thinking long-term here )

Bitter day for 365, this was meant to be much better for us...

4th place is really good in the rankings for January. Otago was quite disappointing though.

Oh that's was so close to be our first win... 
But a 3rd place is a great result anyway

Perfect season start for Siegel! The pressure of having to carry an entire team didn't let him falter, and we move up the rankings. What a climber he is.
This brings great motivation for the next races, where he and Heintze should be GC threats.

8th is a bit low considering our expectations but it's Hummels' debut so the pressure on him isn't on yet
Congrats Cio!

Probably should have went for the mountain train if i wanted to maximise the points but wanted to mix things up with more aggressive racing for once

Tough work closing down those small gaps, but they did it in the end. Another 2nd place is a good result for Eruzione.
Rankings definitely show the importance of Cat A races, relative to Cat B.
