Any idea when racing will start? Forum is obviously hyped for it to begin looking at the previews.

I have already raced the first few races and will post the results from tomorrow on.
I will also again create a folder for everyone who wants to do some races.
There are still some NCs missing (check the spoiler). Let me know if you still want to add some of them!

If it's still possible to add our NCs, then yes.

I think I already have a dutch one for Van Poppel, could you use that for Aleman since we aim to recolonise and everything? Please also bring back the custom scouting regions. 
Venezuela can be the standard one if it's in the game, if not, standard Colombia will do, thanks!
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

If it wasn't for the Carbon Sports rider blocking Alaphilippe this couldve been an outstanding start for us.

On the bright side it could be brilliant if he begins to get away with that flat of his

Fourth is a good enough start, but being the third French rider hurts...

Thanks Bikex, its great to see ICL racing again 
The car drivers need a bit of training. Cav might have got a better run if that car was not there. 5th not a bad result.

(Copied from last season, let me know if there are any mistakes)
Scouting
This is how Scouting works:
You sign scouts and send them to different regions. After each round you get a scouting update from them including data about talents they found there. After that you can change the instructions for the scouts, depending on if you want to send him somewhere else or it is possible to focus on specific talents they found. Meaning that the report on them will be much more accurate than before.
In total there will be 10 rounds (= # of racing months). From round 8 on you are allowed to sign precontracts with riders you have found for the upcoming season.
After the 10th round closes there will be the U21 WWorld Championships with the regens and I'll share a table with all talents still available (not with their exact stats). A draft will conclude the Scouting. Teams will be ordered in the order of the turned around rankings. Also newly signing up teams will get a chance to take part in the draft, that way they are involved in the game earlier.
Besides on Scouts, budget can also be spent on Scouting packages that will be auctioned. These also include information on talents.
The possibility to pay wages out of the Scouting budget will be removed.
Scouts
Before we can get started, you'll have to sign scouts. Please download this file for creating you Scouts: https://www.mediafire.com/file/obgu5pf....xlsx/file
Start by entering your team ID in the respective cell. As always you'll find it in the "Teams" tab. Your budget and IDs for your scouts will appear. Fill in as many scouts as you'd like to sign. You can freely choose Name and nationality, they won't have any influence. The interesting cells are Quantity (= how many riders a Scout finds) and Quality (= How good the reports on them are). Both can take values from 1 to 3. The cost of a scout is their added values * 20. So the cheapest scout costs 40 the most expensive 120.
When done send me the entire table including the scouts please. I'll then set up a personalized spreadsheet in which you will do your scouting and send you the link.
Due to the Scouting Packages that are sold independent from your Scouts work, it is not recommended to use up all your money for scouts. In a scouting package you get to see the full stats and potential of 5 riders. There will be sold different types of packs with different probabilities. Buying packs with money is a lot more of a gamble than investing in Scouts.
Scouting Regions
Another thing that can already be done is determining Scouting regions. Of course you can send a Scout to a single country, but some teams have focus on regions that include several countries. If you want to add a Scouting Region please do that here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/...sp=sharing
This is the same file as last season, as you can see some had their fun in there.
I have added an example of the "Baltic States" at the bottom. If you want to have a scouting region added, please just expand the list. Enter a name for the region and the 3 letter codes of all countries(max 10) you want to include next to it.
If the region makes sense I'll approve it. There is some stuff to consider: The countries you add do have to have a connection. You can't for example add a region including Peru and Taiwan.
You can't make a region too big, by including many bigger (cycling) countries in a region. For example combining Netherlands and Belgium into a scouting region is not allowed, as that would be a too big talent pool. Italy and San Marino or Spain and Andorra would be accepted on the other hand.
Some countries have many added regions in PCM already, so it is also possible to focus on some of them if you like. Look into the tab "Regions" to see what is part of the game. Great Britain has some regions added newly. Thanks to Ripley for the help with that. You can include any of these regions into your created Scouting Regions. For example if your focus would be Basque you could combine Spanish and French regions into a Scouting zone. For that just copy the name of the regions exactly like it is in the file into the line of your scouting region.
If you want to send several Scouts to the same country it might be a good idea to split up that countrys regions into several so the scouts don't cross each others path
