I finally got around to convert or make new versions of my 2011 stages..never made public before...so a few comments would be nice. However the 2012 editor has decided to make two hill races flat instead..which I find is a bit of bore. Since these first three races takes part in the same region there are some similiarity between them.
Completely new version of this race
How do I work: Well I usually find very minor races perhaps even amateur races..and if they are too short I expand,and I do try and make the terrain as real as possible even when there are no dem. files (which there are in most cases)

And next in line was the Zimnyanya GP (Belarus) Another flat race in sinister surroundings,but not quite as easy as it looks,Tricky finish. Did away with a few minnow roads,and minor tweaks.

and the Dobrich GP (Bulgaria) This is a cobblestone race.and completely revised. Became slightly longer but better gameplay. The river network howvernis not the real one....but I think you can live with that.

Nope suprisingly not, the cobble will take care of that....

And now the GP Südkärnten this is very much a mountain race. In real life it is one of the most popular in Central Europe Live TV coverage all day from Austrian TV, and usually results in a battle royal between Gebrüder Weiss,Vorarlberg and Wels Gourmetfein. Weiss holding the upperhand at the moment. Organisers have applied for an upgrade to 1.1 (don't know if they have got that)
Don't be afraid of the 18 % nearly all the route is between 7-9% and the 18% is the famed,feared Hohe Kammersberg (finish actually)

Fuji Peloton GP...now everyone thinks Asian,forget it, this is one of the few Finnish cycle races. Finland--1000 lakes,immense woods,narrow roads,dirt roads,gravel roads..no wonder they specialize in mountain bikes.
Again a flat race,with two rather steep hills.

Trofeo Porec (Croatia) one of the most popular races in the 1.2 calender, Made aa new and better version of this,has cobble and some minnow roads. For reasons I don't understand the editor has declared this a flat race and that is not the case.But who am I to question Cyanide's wisdom..
Took a few days for this one as I tried to stop the riders from taking an extra round in the beginning of the race,did not succeed,but it doesn't do anything for gameplay or race...just annoys me
