*kadtagenero - you can choose 1pt for Acevedo yes.. no matter what attribute you choose.
*sutty68 - he has good chances if he wins kom jersey many times..
I´ll give Acevedo 1pt in TT and the rest i´ll make myself as i want to play and start Grand Prix of Sochi .. thanks for the ones who made it along.. i´ll might change this as it takes too long for ppl to comment and i must wait too long to play..

Squad
Some riders attacked for 1st kom sprint but peloton got them back... P. Mooney had more luck and was able to escape .. he reaches 2nd kom sprint alone..
Few kms ahead, M. Cooke attacks from the pack..
P. Mooney reach 3rd kom sprint with 56" to Cooke and 7´37" to peloton.. 114kms to go.
92kms to ride, peloton raises the pace.. Mooney still has 7´21"gap lead..
Peloton rode fast and caught Cooke with 46kms to go.. now with 22kms, it´s time for Mooney to be reeled in..
As predicted, we will have a mass sprint finish..
Only one turn right before the finish line... who comes out first will be the winner..
K. Hanson(OPM) leads the sprint.. the red helmet is our B.J. Maynes..
K. Hanson wins... Maynes with a great finish..

Mooney looking good on the day's podium in that Russian women sandwich.
Also a good start for Jacques-Maynes with a top 10 on the other side of the world. |

Thank you sutty68 and The Rider
This next stage changed things a little bit...
D. Van Baarle(RB3) was the one to set a real best time... 53´41"
J. Sütterlin(TET) won Istrian´s 1st stage but today is way far from that.. +41"
F. Baliani(PPO) looses too much time today.. +1´29"
With already 23 race days, G.C. Veloso(OFM) knows he´s fit enought to make better then Baarle and he does.. NBT in 53´35"
Jamis tt veteran B.J. Maynes rode the 1st and 2nd checkpoint as 2nd best but in the final part he had to change rear wheel and lost some time.. 11th best with 1´31"

*tsmoha - .. yes, didn´t you know about that feature in pcm?..
*sutty68 - shit can happen..
*Ian Butler - How did you know that?
Peloton reach the 1st kom sprint without any breaks... M. Cooke attacks..
5,5kms to 3rd kom sprint, D. Craven(BCP) +2´37" GC, leads the race..
4th kom sprint... those damn tv bikes.. L. Romero shouts to them, he almost crashed there.. Craven has 3´04"gap..
With 4kms to the 5th kom sprint, Romero was brought back and leads the pack now.. Craven with 2´36"gap..
F#*&%§* amazing.. D. Craven wins... B.J. Maynes finishes 8th place.. good result.

G.C. Veloso(OFM) still leads..

Good finish again, I still think you will have a shot at the Top-10!
KoM... yeah, just "copy & paste" this for your next race

*tsmoha - You might like the GC after next stage then..
"copy & paste", that one made me laugh.. , if extreme was so easy, i´m struggling to achieve any good result, doing that kind of stage seems impossible for Jamis.. but we will try of course.
This profile doesn´t really show how unrealistic the stage is.. over 20% slopes, some riders had to carry their bikes on the backs..
1st kom sprint, M. Cooke leads the 5 men breakaway.. 8´11"gap with 135kms to go..
With one men less, the breakaway reaches last kom sprint with 1´47" gap to a 14 riders group where Maynes and Romero are..
Such weak riders with such strong rides.. escapees reach the final km without Mooney.. he tried to drop them at the last climb( Mooney 69mo the others with 60 and 58 mo) but got himself droped instead..
E. Dolfsma wins..
Now you think this is the only strange thing in my game?
The final sprint was just amazing.. i was watching this 2nd group and just saw F. Baliani sprinting (not even 70) overtaking all the riders like a rocket.. incredible 72kms max(close to F.Line 70), while all the others were with 58 max... how?.. how is this possible?

Baliani sounds like a dope-head, so that's an explanation for his rocket
Good job staying in this 2nd group and entering the Top-10!

If he keeps doing this, i´ll kick him out from my save...
Maynes did great, he´s riding well and with one more hilly stage, we will try to "copy & paste"

Better be careful, we don't want to "lose" the next story due to a broken savegame
But he is suspicious indeed...

*tsmoha - No problem mate, i ´ll not do that....... for now
*sutty68 - He´s doing a big effort to stay there, but..............
*welker3257 - yes, he might be..
GC before last stage
C. Pinkham leads the break at the Int. sprint.. 6´57" gap.
With the breakaway reaching the top of the 1st kom sprint, M. Cooke leads the pack behind.. 6´00"gap.
22kms to go, 5kms to 2nd kom sprint, B.J. Maynes( -5 ) struggles to stay with the pack.. top10 riders are attacking..
With a descent from the top until the finish line, R. Sentjens(RIJ) wins out of the break.. Pinkham was caught by the pack.. Maynes does finish with the pack but looses time... we´ll have to wait for official time to see what happens..
