I moved the story from the 09 forum. I bought the pcm10 version and i gonna use this story as the draft for a careerstory...
So, Here is the first post from the 09 thread:
Welcome to le Tour de France 2010. Its gonna be an interesting race over 3 weeks with six horrorfying mountain stages. Many strong cyclists are at the start of this years tour includin Contador, Schleck and Menchov.
Also there is a great number of big sprinters like Mark Cavendish or Thor Hushovd. Many Questions are still open before the prologue. Who will win the KOM classification? Is Mark Cavendish gonna win his first green jersey with Greipel as luxury teammate or is it gonna be hushovd for the 2nd in the row?
But the most interesting Question is: Who will win the Tour? Is it gonna be a duel between Schleck and Contador or are there more conter´nders or is it a suprise man? Lets see how the next 3 weeks develop.
Here are the rosters....

After several riders set their time, Andys main Teammate (and his brother)
Frank Schleck started into this years Tour de France. He set a good Time for his timetrialabillities and came in 36th with a residue of 46seconds.

Columbia is going for the green jersey at this years tour. However with Tony Martin they also have a young talented rider who could win one or two stages and his main target for this years tour is the timetrial at the end of the tour. He set a new best but in the end he would loose 17 seconds to the winner becoming 7th.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
His form said no, his legs said yes. Fabian Cancellara set an amazing time around the street circuit. His Time of 11:44 was unbeatable and so he will be wearing yellow on tomorrows stage.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Many people said that Bradley wiggins will be on the podium in paris after becoming 4th last year... But in order to achieve that he had to prove that he was ready for this tour. Having a lower start number than cancellara he had the big advantege of nowing the time to beat. But his prologue time wasnt good enough becoming 3rd, loosing 6 seconds.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Before he rolled from the startramp everyone was asking: Is it enough this time? Can he really win the tour this year? He couldn´t give a clear answer as he is focusing on schleck and Contador aswell as the mountains... His Time wasn´t great loosing 19seconds to Cancellara and seven to contador.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Second last to start was Andy Schleck. His time was worse than his brothers but everyone who knows Andy knows that he will be one of the best contenders in the mountains. Andy lost 54 seconds to Cancellara and 42 secs to Contador...
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
Last to start was Contador. He set a great time and was fastest from all of the main tour favourits... He lost 12 secs to Cancellara however he will not see him as contender for the maillot jaune.

Stage 2.
We are heading to Brussels... As this is a flat stage our main goal is to save the Maillot jaune and to bring Breschel into a good position for the sprint.
An early break wasn´t good enough and got caught very fast. The second breakaway of the day was formed by the same riders. They had a maximum advantage of 5´30min. A suprise was that sprinter William Bonnet was in the break who didnt feel strong enough for a mass sprint. However, the break was caught with 17km to go.
We 12 km to go we set up our sprinter train. In first position was Cancellara, followed by Voigt. O´Grady is playing Renshaws role for Breschel...
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
However, our train wasn´t satisfactory. O´Grady and Breschel were in the wind to early. Another problem was that Breschel was stuck between Mazzanti and Voigt, and till 650m before the line he didnt find a way to pass. On the right Boasson Hagen sprinted past the other riders...

And won the stage!!!

Today is the first day of hell titled a big danish newspaper.
It was easy to say that a small group of riders would try to beat the peloton as this stage was suitable for a small break.
An early Break was formed by Sylvain Chavanel, who seemed pretty strong today. Eberyone let the number 10 in the GC go because the big names knew that he wouldn´t play any role in the mountains.
However his solo was caught by a chasing group including Voeckler and Casar.
The break got divided several times but always found back together. The most promising try was by Casar and Kessiakoff but they werent strong enough to hold of the chasing group.
Meanwhile Nicki Sörensen fell and lost 10 minutes to the peloton...
20km before the end of the stage Contador and Evans attacked.
Andy was a little sick today and couldnt keep up with them.
The three top riders were caught but the break was still going on...
The Group got divided and three French riders stayed ahead (Casar, Chavanel and Voeckler)...
Casar was in the leading position when the sprint began...
But he want strong enough and Chavanel could outsprint his countrymen and won the stage...
...with a lead of 40 seconds before the peloton. The new leader in the GC and the KOM classification is Chavanel...
"Tomorrow we are going to Hell" said Armstrong after todays stage with a view on the Cobblestone Stage to Arenberg tomorrow...

We hit the cobbles today...
Its gonna be a very hard stage as we have to bring Schleck over the cobbles without any Crash... Cancellara is gonna be his Guard and today we have a big advantage as Contador and Evans don´t have a good Teammate to bring em over the cobble parts...
Although we didn´t have to, we controlled the speed of the peloton.
Many Riders tried to break away and a group of 12 formed including Romain Sicard from Euskatel.
The group ahd a maximum advantage of 3'25 and went on the cobbles first.
Every one in the Peloton survived the first cobblessection, but it was the easiest Section of the day...
After the first Cobbles section Cervelo took over as leading team in the pack to catch the break and to bring Hushovd in the right position...
First Facourites to fall behind were Basso and Vandevelde as well as Rogers...
And also the Maillot jaune was in the group that lost contact to the pack
Also Kreuziger, leipheimer, Gesink and Köden were left behind... Armstrongs team was weakened as Popovych fell back earlier on and Horner was in the break, leaving Armstrong in the pack with Paulinho...
And then the Shock!!! Radioshacks BIG BOSS Lance Armstrong had a puncture....
But the riders who lost the contact to the peloton could come back and join the peloton before the next cobbles section...
After the last Cobblessection of the day, O´Grady attaced 8.4 km before the finish.
And his Attack was succesful!!!
And we had a great finish with Breschel coming in 4th...
Chavanel comes in 9th and defends his maillot jaune today, and he will keep it for at least 4 other days...

This story is very realistic, Armstrong having a puncture in the cobble stage and Chavanel winning in Spa.  |

As todays is a flat stage we are going to race for Breschel again...
It is a short stage over 148km from Cambrai to Reims.
The start of the stage was very hectic. 5 riders formed an early break and the peloton let them go as the best rider was Mondory (96. +1'36).
Today we are focusing on Breschels Sprint Speed as it is most Likely that Cancellara will loose the green jersey today.
Best rider from the Sprinters is Breschel in 3rd Place but he needs fo finish in the top 5 as Boasson Hagen, Farrar and Cavendish arent that many points behind him.
BMC and Caisse were very active in the pack to catch the break.
Hard Luck for BMC... With only 23.8 Kilometers to go Evans fell. That was a hard cap for him as this could shrink his ambition on the victory...
Imediatley his team dropped back, to bring the World Champion back to the pack.
5km to go and Breschel got the maybe most valuable Backwheel for Cavendish, Mark Renshaw...
The Sprint began, and without knowing, Renshaw pulled Breschel.
However it wasnt the right backwheel as Cavendish started his own Sprint out of nowhere and took the stage win in front of McEwen.
Breschel gets his Top 5 result by taking 4th place.
And he takes the green jersey with 8 points ahead of Cavendish.
After everyone crossed the line there were some changes in the GC as Klöden, Kreuziger, Gesink and Leipheimer arrived 1'40min after the pack together with several others includin LL Sanchez.

Yet another flat stage.
Today it will be important to defend the green jersey with breschel and slowly get moraly fit for the mountains as Station de Rousses comes closer with every day. As it is a flat stage again, there won´t be any changes in the GC and the young rider Classification.
L´Equipe titled the follwing about yesterdays stage:
Lucky Matti Breschel gets the green jersey, today to flat to keep it?
First one to attack on todays stage was Wim de Vocht from team Milram. His attempt created a 10 rider break which was caught at the first KOM point. The start of the stage was the stage of many attacks from BMC riders after Cadel Evans lost more than 4'50min yesterday and is therefore out of the circle of favourites...
Finally A group formed 130 km before the finish. But the group lived in danger as Mounier the 19th in the GC with a residue of 1'00min was in the group...
The maximum advantage of the break was 1'25 and there was no second were they were out of the view of the pack.
After the group was caught the sprinters got ready to fight for the last intermediate sprint when suddenly Veikkanen fell
Offside the cameras Farrar won the sprint and pushed himself into second of the provisional Sprinters Classement.
While Saxo Bank was building up a train,
Hutarovich, Velasco and Velits fell...
Cancellara madde the pace for Saxo Bank and went into the sprint first
The Sprint was Close and with half a kilometer to go Breschel was in the lead...
And won his first stage at this tour, thanks to a brilliant train!!!
Today the Tour lost two riders: Kessiakoff (Garmin) and Juffre (Astana)

Last day before we hit the mountains...
Flat but enough hills for a single rider to take the KOM Jersey...
The stage started with an attack by Romain Sicard... He already attcked on Stage 4 and yesterdays stage...
Cyril Gautier won the first 3 points for the mountain jersey.
And at the 2nd KOM Classification point it was the frenchman again...
The brake had a maximum advantage of 8'24min
The stage was a very boring stage and when the sprint pulled of it was Freire who had the best legs and took the win

WE HIT THE MOUNTAINS
Finally a stage where the big names will show their strength-Andy Schleck
Schleck will have to fight for his life today, But i gonna give him a small chance... I will decide this Tour in thy pyrenaes...-Alberto Contador
6 KOM Classifications...Chavanel has to fight to keep his Jersey today...
First one to attack was Vogondy... The french man saw his chance for the KOM jersey and initiated the first Break of the day...
Jelle vanendert won the second and Third KOM Classification, giving him a total of 13 points after 3 of 6...
First one to fall back was Tyler Farrar... The US Sprinter had serious problems today.
Then it was a group of 22 Riders who lost contact with the pack... Thery were not the big names except for maybe Robbie McEwen.
Soon two RadioShack rider fell back, good for armstrong that steegmans was one of them...
And then we lost one rider... Stuart O´Grady fell back, Together with ciolek and suprisingly Knees.
Then Casar and a group including Voigt and C.A. Sörensen lost contact.
In a short downhill section, Lefevre and his teammate Gautier crashed... But they seemed okay.
More tough luck for Farrar. He had a puncture... Its gonna be a tough day if he wants to make it to the finish in time...
Vanendert took also the 4th and 5th KOM classifications and is now the provisional leader of the KOM jersey...
With an advantage of 4 minutes the leading Group went into the final climb...
The whole time in the pack, Andy kept his brothers Backwheel... When would the favourites attack?
First Favourites to attack were Basso, Van Den Broeck And VandeVelde...
And then the Schlecks, Evans and Contador attacked.
But they were caught by the pack where Cervelo and Rabobank were making the pace.
With a km to go Sastre was in the lead and the pack was chasing him...
...and the spainiard took the win...
Chavanel however could defend his Maillot jaune...
But lost the dotted jersey... And Andy Schleck rode into the maillot blanc...
