The idea is simple. A story everyone on PCMDaily can help create.

It can literally be about anything... that's cycling related.
It's an open canvas, a story that changes and has no defined direction.

Obviously, it could go crazy and people could troll for their amusement.
But, in my memory, I ask that you all work together to create something great. Something memorable. Something that represent the community.

I can say I've lost all hope for the site if that can't be achieved.
And I have told the Admins to lock this thread forever if it gets out of hand.

In a perfect world this wouldn't need any rules but to just get everything
started in the right direction here are the 3 basics rules to always follow.

That's it. This isn't meant to be a place to spam and get your post count up (none of that matters), it's to showcase your writing ability and
display what this community is capable of creating and imagining.

I might come back in time to read the progress or see if it's closed down.
But, other then that, it's your story. Have fun and create something memorable.

I wouldn't leave you all hanging and struggling for a starting point, so:

Okay, maybe I would. Good Luck! I wish you all the best of luck!

Sometimes a story has a vague beginning. This is one of them.
A peloton full of cyclists, each with their own agenda and thoughts.
Tales are told and dreams are unfolded. The ones that left untold...

Only takes a person's imagination to tell their story to the world.

There are winners, there are losers. There are superstars, who get all the glory, and their teammates, who work harder than anyone else, but get little if any recognition come the finish line. Then, there are the stragglers; the riders who are there to make up the numbers, the ones who hang out at the back of the peloton, when that is even possible.



I am one of those. We watch as the stars take victory, and as they step up onto the podium. We dream of being like them one day, but the harsh reality is, we won't be.

Of course the allure of drugs and doping crosses one's mind. As much as the purist wants to believe, that sort of culture is still rife in our sport. But I vowed when I was young, to never be that sort of person. No matter where I was in the world, I would get to the top on my own merits.

This, is my story

I am a person living in a different world as most of you know it. I am a cyclist!

The world of cycling has had enough downs now and I believe we can change things for the better, doping tests have improved in quality and quantity over the past few years, and abusers have been caught more and more. This is the time to show people this sport is becoming trustworthy.



With the open roads ahead, the wind blowing and the nerves starting to come, our journey begins here. Our journey will lead us to great moments, moments we will have to share with everyone we know. But there will also be moments of pain and suffering, the two things that make this sport heroic, but also the two things who have made people taking bad decisions. Our quest is to show people the new generation of cyclists is ready for a fresh start. Let’s just hope the fans are too…

I am a cyclist, a sportsman ready to take on the biggest races, and I will take you with me on my quest.

I finished off my glass and rose from my bed. I didn't want to read the messages. I don't know what came over me, but I was more determined than ever to make it work. I wanted to pick up where I left off, but I knew CCC wouldn't take me back after what happened, but I didn't know what else to do. The transfer season was almost over, and I wasn't exactly a household name. I wanted to go off looking for a new team, but I was in no shape to do so. I didn't know exactly what to do, but I knew that I had to get better... And fast.
