Edit:
Oh
Honestly I am a team that you can't see in the results because I remove them like they are not in the race
I know how to edit a database to make a fair story
Basically a custom team I made, but I am making them all drop off the back at the beginning so you can't see them in the screens, and I can just focus on reporting the race by the CPU's

A very nice start in Oz, this story is already something special, but would it kill you to make sure we have a stage winner who still uses this site!! (Forgive me if I'm wrong.)
Great to see one of my jersey packs makes it way into one of the
teams. |

Tour Down Under Post Race 1.7 - Goodbye, Australia
Well that was it. To summarize the race in short, it was what we expected. Unpredictable and wild. We had both disappointments and surprises. The Tour of Qatar is next in a few weeks. It will be interesting to see what riders show up to that race.
Teams will be training hard to either prove the first race was a fluke, or the first race was really what these teams are capable of, in the case of Bunzl. With all of that being said, it is time to release the reports from each team, some fairly short, while some go into a bit more detail.
-~-~-~-~-~
Bunzl is very happy and pleased with the result from the TDU. Christer had impressive finishes at every stage, winning the race and also winning the Mountain classification. Christer was the only rider we had in the top 20, but after stage 1, we focused on just keeping care of him and securing the win. Don't forget that our team also finished in 1st place. That shows the good chemistry and teamwork this squad had. SprtingNonsense is very happy with the result these riders put up, giving him even more confidence that this team can make something happen at the big races.
We here at Celesio are proud of the efforts put in by the team. lokytrew had yellow a few days, but lost it on the last mountain stage. But thats ok, he wasn't even supposed to be in the jersey, and a second place finish along with an 8th from Slevio is very impressive. roturn thinks they will be nice domestiques later, which could be crucial to the team getting a very good result in the bigger races.
The home team of the race. The team was happy with the way they competed in their own country. Strydz & tshoma both showed content with the way that rodda sprinted to a win twice, one time over the favorite. Luis Leon Sanchez was the highest finisher at 17th, which raised a little concern from the team. The team hopes to step up training in the coming weeks, using some of the same track used in the TDU.
A disappointing race still turned into a tie for 3rd place in the team standings. They were favorited to win every stage, but did not win any, with the best being a second from Jseadog1. 547984 finished 37th, and 5th on the team, when he was supposed to be the leader. Bushwackers had the best ride of this team by far, in the top 10 over half of the stages. Team leader valverde321 saw some success by 547984 in the mountain classification, as he finished 2nd. However, he expressed frustration at jseadog1 for not being able to get that early stage win, and questioned his workouts of the off-season.
The highest team to finish under the radar. ruben, the team leader has also kept quiet. mpardo finished 4th, best on the team and just short of a podium. They only had 2 finishers in the top 45, but they definitely showed aggressiveness by getting involved in the breaks.
Alakagom was happy with the performance to say the least. A podium from unlikely Ozzy, who almost won a stage. he started the race as a bottle carrier, and surely left his mark. That really is the lone highlight of this team from the race, but the squad they brought mostly consisted of secondary riders.
The first team to lose to an independent team, Pellizotti2 expressed his frustration. The team was riding in the back of the peleton nearly every stage, something that apparently was miscommunication. 61st was their highest finisher, barely in the top half of the field. The team stuck together the majority of the race with barely any branching apart.
Decent performance, the last 100 yards of this race is where PCM Rulezz earned the points win for this team. They had 2 top 10 stage finishers a few times also, something that Ian Butler feels is important to this team. Macquet was also the highest finisher, who was very consistent throughout the race. New Belgium rounded out the top 10 of the team race.
Halvor finished 7th in this race, but that doesn't even begin to describe how good of a race he had. Points leader a few days, a few podiums in the stages, and a happy manager. Farmer Sam even got involved in 2 breaks, and finished 4th in the climbers category. TMM plans on getting the team more hill work over the next few weeks.
Lachi was indifferent about the performance, as he knows it is early in the season. Nobody in the top 20 of any classifications except a 19th in the points one. lollo345 was the most consistently top placing finisher for the team, who hopes to make more of a mark at the next race.
sutty68 was happy that the pack finished together and in the peloton. He was also happy with the performance from miggi133 this race. This team has alot of potential, and it will be interesting to see what kind of training the team has to get ready and more in shape this year.
Not many high placing finishers, but the team didn't exactly bring the best of what they have to offer. Jesleyh will now attempt to get his team ready to give a legit performance in the next few weeks.
Squire had the best performance by far, and was essentially the only rider to look good at this race, Crommy is very happy with Squire, but disappointed in the rest of the team, specifically Mresuperstar, one of the favorites, finishing 65th.
As far as the other teams go, they all had the same opinion. Needing to improve, but not exactly upset with the performances, as they were not expecting much better to come from the start of the season.
The next race will be starting before we know it, I wonder if anything interesting will happen until then?

Very happy with the start of our season. Points Jersey is a big deal to New Belgium (well, anything we'll win will be about a big deal ). Great reporting, by the way. Not spending much time on the site but for the moment this is the one thing I'm following! |

Not a bad race for Qantas, they were virtually non-existent during the race, but 16th and the a fair placing in the teams classification isn't all bad.

I surely will not comment on the team manager who did not select me for this race. |

I totally agree with my team captain, Jesleyh. Our main leaders are still preparing themselves to shine at the best moment possible. You'll be hearing from Rabobank!

I am proud to announce that the schedule for the entire year has been FINALIZED!
In fact, you should go here to view it - https://pcmdaily.com/forum/viewthread....ost_985238
Belgium, France, and the United States are the most common regions we will be racing at this year. The schedule could have slight modifications next year depending on how this season goes. I feel like we have made just enough races where the riders will not die and we will be able to determine a fair winner!
In other news, teams have begun announcing rosters for Qatar, and almost all of the teams captains will be racing. It should be a very exciting continuation of the season! See you then!
