Were there full results for the Giro?
The day when bike gears turn automatic. = Why not now? They did it with cars.

sutty68 - It sure was Of course, the field was quite weak, but nice wins nonetheless.
5hadows - I'd have to look that up. Next time I'm on my laptop, I'll try to post them |

Wow, that's a bit harsh on his family, and interesting tactics from EBH, focusing on the KOM. Hopefully it will improve his performance to move house and not disrupt him too much. |

Shame that Lars had to make such a hard choice of Family or Career
On the plus side he should enjoy working alongside Mr Cancellara |

Just letting you know that I'm still an eager follower. The style still needs a little getting-used-to, but I think it has great potential. It's probably not necessary to say, but I do it anyway: Keep it up

The Hobbit - EBH probably getting most points dragging the Sky train over the HC mountains
sutty68 - Cancellara will be a great addition to the team! BMC to go for all cobbled classics, spring classics now! All we need is a world stage racer and we'll conquer the world.
cunego59 - Thanks for letting me know I need to get used to it, too
This will go quiet for a little while now.
Still have that family member in the hospital (hospital is far away, too), have to do several shows with my band tomorrow, also have a show the week after. And, yeah, I also have an exam in 8 days.
I'll do my best, but those things all have higher priority than this. |

Let's hope Lars doesn't turn his back on his family only to regret this decision forty years later!
I think I remember Ian Butler saying that he likes the idea of a cycling graphic novel, instead of looking for one he is creating one. |

The Rider - Let's hope he won't regret it though he doesn't turn his back, he just moves away to a different country
In the end I did decide to make the graphic novel myself
On previous request, here are two screens illustrating the Giro's outcome:
Also, the game is acting weird at the World Championships. So I'm stuck, it seems, hope someone can help me soon (posted in technical issues)

Sagan 2nd in KOM, 1st in Points and 17th in GC? Did he pay the Db maker?
The day when bike gears turn automatic. = Why not now? They did it with cars.

welker3257 - He sure is a beast And Brajkovic surprisingly strong in support of Nibali!
5hadows - Could be though is stats are all right, 72 MO, 79 HILL, 79 SP, nothing unreal...
Meanwhile, I'm still stuck at the WC because of the bug. It seems like a rare problem and so far nobody's been able to help me so far. I still can test a few things, but I'm not sure if it'll do anything |

It seems my savegame is corrupted or something. Upon reachin the WC ITT, I was unable to 3D race, I only got the option Quikc Simulation. When I clicked it, nothing happened.
I advanced by clicking further ahead on the calendar.
Same problem for the Road Race.
I advance up until 02/10. The game won't advance any further, any way.
Here is the savegame, please tell me someone can help me:

I had the same problem with the WC. But when i just skipped the day, i didn't have any more problems. Did you do any DB editing with national teams and/or selection?

Yes, I edited the career so I had control of Norway. But I've done that before and it never was any problem.
Also, the game freezes past the WC now, so I don't think it's WC related, unless the WC corrupted the savegame further? |
