Cool. I lost mountain jersey by one point in Giro del Trentino, because my team-mate outsprinted me for one of the KOM sprints on the last stage. He had 0 KOM points and I had been KOM competition leader before the stage.
Poor man.
I lost the tour de France by less than 1 second to nairo quintana once. My attack on alp d'huez gained me exactly the gap between quintana and myself...so he went to Paris with the leaders jersey, because in the event of a tie, the holder is still the leader.
Gutted. |

Gutted. I was 3 minutes in front of Quintana before the last stage of Tour de France (Champs Elysées). I fell at 30km from the line and lost 5 minutes in the end! |

Hi Guys,
A quick question:
How do I view the course of the coming World Champs in advance? I'm playing as a heavy sprinter, so if the course is Valkenburg or Firenze, I will not prioritize - but if we are talking Doha/Copenhagen, then I might build my entire season around it.
I know I can see it in the Training screen when I get to the month of September, but at that time it is hard to correct the entire season planning... |

Try the Schedule menu option in the Team tab (or the Rider tab itself, not sure)...

Open your game in an editor. Go to STA_stage and find row with WC. I think it is the last column which holds the information about the stage file that will be used. |

It doesn't show up there. Perhaps because I'm still at a ProConti-team - but since I'm racing the WC it should still show up.
@togo95 - thanks, I will try my luck with the editor. |

I signed new sponsor after second season. I was French continental team and now my sponsor is from USA (Big Boy). Yet my new sponsor objectives are mostly based in France. I was assuming that my sponsor would like to concentrate on american based races but no. Tour of California, Utah Tour etc no interest at all. Slight interest on USA national championship though. Is this because I still have quite a lot of French riders? Can I expect a change during the next few seasons?
meant to post this on geneeal career discussion obv.

I noticed that the World Tour team have EXTREMELY large rosters. Most teams have more than 30 riders - plenty of them 35-40.
Gazprom bought Team Tinkoff and they now have a team of 42 riders, of which 20 are 76 or above. That's just ridicolous - its like the teams are hoarding riders. It leads to many good riders never riding enough to get into top shape as well as many top riders being pure domestiques (Nibali, Bouhanni, van Avermaet etc.).
I am playing Be A Pro, so it's not that big a problem - but is it just as bad in career mode? |

It's a general bug of PCM 15, whereas the limit is supposed to be 30, it really is infinite. Potentially, you could experience even larger teams just because of this. No kidding, it's just is this bad.

One World Government right in PCM 15. It's the year of the NWO! |

Does anyone play on extreme difficulty? I am considering whether I should do that after I won MSR with my young climber with poor fitness, freshness and rhythm. Tbh I have probably decided already, I just want to hear how realistic do you guys find the extreme difficulty in this version of PCM. |

Is there a way to change the rider you're controlling in Be a Pro? |

What decides which pro teams offer you a be a pro contract. Am I able to edit this? I was trying to figure out how to have team Wiggins offer me a contract as an american. |

Below the list of teams that offer you a contract, press the yellow button (I think yellow). It gives you all teams and you can offer a contract yourself, so choose any team  |

Sorry I meant when starting a pro career. It doesn't seem to be based on the nationality of the teams because if it is changed they still offer contracts. |

Click 'go back' and then advance again, there will be 3 other teams. But not all teams will offer you. Depending on your age (avg), PCT or mainly CT teams. |

You could increase your change of having a British team choose you by taking a British nationality and then edit the save when you've started the career and change to American citizenship.
But I don't know if that has any consequences concerning NC, WC... |

I got the flu in february, sprained my wrist in march, and broke my hand in june.
I think the game hates me.
