Sponsor Goal
They say it´s flat...
Squad
 X. Kwan tries to catch up with the 3 men break before 1st kom sprint... 3´02"gap to peloton...
31kms to ride, 2nd kom sprint...Kwan drops his break mates... 2´24"gap to peloton..
20kms mark... peloton is 1´44" behind...
5kms... peloton is still 1´44" behind... 2nd break group is 1´00"... he can do it...
Last km for Kwan... but peloton is right behind him.. Kwan is so tired he can´t even sprint..
Some my riders picked the wrong wheel and our best posicioned rider is also our captain,  G. Koob(+5) follows  E. Rossi´s wheel..
Final sprint starts... Meridiana riders in front..
Koob still behind Rossi...
G. Koob overtakes Rossi and Kwan...
... and takes the win... great start... poor Kwan... he dies on the beach.. but still manages 3rd place...

Shit is what outcame from my 1st TTT in pcm13
Will simulate every TTT for the rest of my life...
Settimana Internazionale Coppi e Bartali
STAGE 2
 Funvic Brasilinvest are considered main favourites,  CCC Polsat are the outsiders and  Once Cycling Team should not be underestimated.... ahahahaha
So we start with the outsiders... CCCPolsat needed to beat  Huon Salmon-Genesys Wealth Advisers best time 14´14" but polish team is 4" slower...2nd place...
Main favourites Funvic Brasilinvest show why they got the title... new best time with 14´09"...
Then we came to the road... WTF was this... +44" with 99% and my best TT riders pulling 20" at the front... no need to say we lost the lead and Koob sits in 36th in GC...

Yes they need... it takes all motivation to play them..
*dienblad
The old bug, yes.. .. next stage is perfect for revenge... 3 or 4 small climbs, many will loose time.... i just hope we aren´t included...
*sutty68
Yes they are, that´s why i´ll never play them again...

Here it goes sutty
Settimana Internazionale Coppi e Bartali
STAGE 3
After the disaster in last stage, this one fits like a glove....
We tooked the lead in peloton right after Int. sprint and started to push agressive.... 51 riders loose contact right away....there are no breaks..
When peloton climbs to 1st kom sprint,  H. Becker gets away and rides solo on top...
Later, at the climb between both kom sprints, 5th in GC N. Earle(HGP) and 7th in GC F. Felline(AND) try to escape from the pack wich got smaller at this point, 56 riders... Becker is 3´39" ahead with 52kms to ride..
We continue to push hard everytime the road goes up....
37kms to go, climbing to 2nd kom sprint, G. Koob comes to the front in peloton... he can see Earle and Felline aren´t so far away...
After kom sprint, Koob catch up with Earle... Felline is some meters ahead... 1´51" to Becker...
Descending to last climb, Koob catch up with Felline.... Earle will regroup again as Koob tooked his foot out from gas...
... last climb, Koob drops Felline and Earle... the small peloton isn´t far...
At that small descent after the top,  R. Diaz 15th GC+9"(SLS), F. Taborre 21th GC+10"(VIN) and R. Chiarini 23th GC+11"(AND) catch up with Koob... Becker is 1´03" away.... and this with 1km to go...
Becker starts to celebrate....
Behind him, Taborre takes the lead for the sprint... Koob is tired...
... but they can´t take away this great win from H. Becker... another amazing solo win...
Taborre makes 2nd with Diaz in 3rd... Koob is 4th.. now the question is.. Do we have the shirt back?
