Another idea: Would it be possible to move Euskal Bizikleta to another time of the season as with the Vuelta moved in reality it would have probably moved to in order to attract the big cyclists.

Here's my proposal. You adapt the Uzbek Sharktooth to PCM 09, and then use it as a .HC race at the end of the season. It could create a crazy race near the end for promotion if some teams are close, plus having small teams and all the CT teams would make the race unpredictable, fun, and exciting. |

Sorry, missed one point, you have ever CT team enter with a small 4-5 rider team |

Would be cool - however I seem to have lost the Uzbekh Sharktooth file, which makes it hard to do.
Also there is a 22/23 team limit on races, so not all CT teams could ride.

How about the inclusion of more criteriums. Due to the shortness of the the races you could do half the number of race days for half the points and only 4-5 man teams.

I'm sure somebody on the forum has it lying around somewhere. Maybe then, if you could find it, could use it as just a normal .HC race, or as the PT v. CT thing you were talking about last year.
Basically, I just want to see the Sharktooth in the man-game, it would be awesome |

That could work - all flat criteriums, or a mixture of terrain?

mixture, what is that spanish race you always did with DFL at the end of the season, with the time-trial and crazy crit. Thats the sort of hilly crit that could work.
Maybe, just throwing this out there, the crits count not only as normal CT races but as there own side series as well (whether the side series would actually count for real CT points or shits and giggles I don't know). Hell, i'll run it. |

The Montjuic race? I think we had that in the management game aswell last season
It could work in CT easily - like how we have it now so the separate British Isles Tour, Europe Tour, Asia Tour, America Tour, Africa Tour, that will have their own mini rankings

Definitely a mixture of terrain.

How well does the AI do crits? never tried any but if they always end in sprints then there isn't much point, also you would need to give people more race days, which would probably end up meaning that all the mountain riders would be at all the stage races, unless of course we found some cool mountain crits, starting at the top of Alp du Huez and going up and down 3 times would actually be pretty cool.

maybe you could run it as a side series, no counting for overall race days and what not, and with a small impact on the CT standings. |

Or no impact on rankings but some sort of monetary reward.

as noted, I'd be happy to run it, I'm sure I could get rjc or some other stage makers to make some fun fantasy crits (we could also use some real ones), and then figure out someway to find a meaningful reward (but not one that is so important that crit riders would be overvalued) |

Another advantage is that it means all those track riders might find themselves in with a chance of winning some races.

I don't know if you have finished the db or not but if not Reinardt Janse Van Rensburg just won the SA U23 TT comfortably and came 2nd in the elite African Championships TT as well as a top 10 in the road race, he seems to have a couple of other strong results and has only just turned 21.

I really like the idea of CT tour crits. It will make some very exciting results.
But what is very important to me is that Ted King will be included in the DB for next season. Such a nice rider have to be in the Man-Game.

I would like to see some CT criteriums too.
And - I'd like to see in Man-Game some new hills/mountains classics (I have in mind mainly Classique des Alpes or some race where can be used Mendrisio's WC profile) and and in not least some races in Eastern Europe
And there are some riders who could be included in the DB for next season:
Peter Sagan, Michal Kwiatkowski, Jan Barta, Jakub Novak, Richie Porte, Jaroslaw Marycz, Artem Ovechkin, Davide Cimolai, Jonathan Castroviejo, Davide Apollonio, Yevgeni Nepomnyachsniy
