Apple - Highroad Cycling Team
Story Details
Wlcome to my new story. The basis of this story is that I'm a rich, yet under developed cycling team striving for the top. We have some good riders, but most are upcoming stars. We will start just below the World Tour and most likely make it there within 2 season (the point at the very earliest I want to stop). At this point I'm not sure what direction the team will head.
My team is an American team, and therefore will be targeting the races in the American/Other region of the calender.
The riders are real riders, with stats taken from the Man Game, giving this story an element of uniqueness.
DateBase: RealNames Powered by Pack ITA V.04
Rider Evolution: 0.8
Finance Difficulty: Normal
Race Difficulty: Hard (Possibly Extreme. It shouldn't make a difference because its all simmed, but still, i may get bored and do a proper, full report one day).

The Races
The team will have a focus on American races and races falling under the 'Other Regions' category (e.g Australia, Asia and The America's) as well as Strade Bianchi (because i love that race)

Good News!
Spoiler [img]https://www.google.com.au/search?q=the+dacia+sandero&hl=en&safe=off&client=safari&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ei=LUU4Ua3RCcrLmgXo4oCADw&ved=0CAkQ_AUoAQ&biw=1024&bih=672#biv=i%7C0%3Bd%7Cb26i7AZyCHfChM%3A[/img]
The Dacia Sandero is in this thread
I kid, I kid. The good news is progress. We have progress on this story. I am only waiting now on a jersey to be finished (thanks bwiggans) and then I have to implement it into the game, then we're good to go. I'm estimating the first report will be within the next 2 weeks cause of exams.
Please be patient, it will come. |

Ok, further progression is happening. This story is now officially splitting. Jak is unsure of where he wants to take this and he has other story commitments. For the moment, he's started Turkcell, but doesn't know whether he'll be continueing or not. I'm still very much hoping I can do this story because I really like what I've done. I'm still waiting on a jersey and then I should be right. My reporting style will most likely not change i.e. More detailed writing with no pictures and simmed results, unless something changes. |

Further Progress... I have now received the team shirt, and am implementing it into the game. Although it will ensure things are all but ready to go, reports will not start immediately because of a tonne of schoolwork and essays, assignments and such. A short press release from the team is to follow |

Have to say the jersey looks very smart indeed, it won't be long before we see it winning races |

Team Apple - Highroad Release Jersey
Team Apple - Highroad have just released their jersey for their debut season. Sticking very much to their roots from the good old Highroad days, the jersey has changed little, albeit with different sponsors. The team is out riding with their new team kits this morning as we speak, and more official photos will come at a later time.
