You're really on a stage making spree at the moment - will be nice to have a 'traditional' Tour of California variant option (i.e. no mountain stage).
how is that traditional? |

 The Texas Revolution
The Texas Revolution is a fantasy criterium series. There are 8 crit races across Texas, and 1 in Mexicao, spread out over two weeks. All the races are super flat and designed for bunch sprints, but that doesn't mean a break won't make it. The races are around 50-55km in length so they will be fast and aggressive. A few rounds have dirt road sections, just in case the speed and tight turns weren't enough.
Round 1: Gonzales 8/4
The Revolution begins in the town of Gonzales. The race departs in the Independence Park. It heads north into the town, where the race runs laps around the edge of the town. 53km it will all finish in the wide open road next to the Texas Heroes Park.
Round 2: Goliad 9/4
The Revolution heads south to the town of Goliad. The race departs in the Goliad State Park, before entering the town to the north. Then its a series of laps around the town to decide the winner. The race ends after 56km on the straight open E Fannin Street, which is perfect for a sprint.
Round 3: Refugio 10/4
The Revolution keeps going south down to the town of Refugio. The race starts on Swift Street. It then runs laps around the edge of the town, before coming to a conclusion 55km later. The final sprint is on N Alamo Street.
Round 4: Matamoros 11/4
The Revolution technically crosses the border into Mexico and Matamoros. The race begins on the Rigo Tovar. It then runs a set of laps around the northern part of the city, right close to the border. 59km later the race will come to a conclusion on the wide straight Calle Gonzalez.
Round 5: Bexar 13/4
The Revolution returns after a day off, all the way back up in Bexar, San Antonio. The race starts on Old U.S. 90 and proceeds to run laps around this part of the suburbs. After 57.5km the race finishes on Eldridge Avenue.
Round 6: Alamo 14/4
The Revolution moves across the city to the downtown area. The race starts on 3rd street, then runs a tight twisty circuit around downtown. Each lap the race passes The Alamo (it would irl). The race ends in Hemisfair 57km later.
Round 7: Concepcion 16/4
The Revolution heads south, with a day rest, to the small community at Concepcion. The race begins by Perez Cemetery before running a tough course around the farms. The majority of the race takes place on dirt roads in the fields. It all comes to a finish 48km later in Main Street.
Round 8: Coleto 19/4
The Revolution heads north, with a day rest, to the area of Coleto Creek. The race starts in the Coleto Creek Regional Park. It then runs a long loop around the creek area, much of which is on dirt roads. It finishes almost where it starts in the Regional Park 60km later.
Round 9: San Jacinto 21/4
The Revolution concludes, after a rest, further north on the anniversary of the Battle of San Jacinto. The race beings in Independence Parkway. It then runs laps of the Historic Park, some of which is on dirt roads. 55km later the race finishes in a sprint just before the San Jacinto monument to conclude the series.
Notes: Goliad may have 2 odd junctions. Alamo is very twisty. San Jacinto monument is actually a water tower. Some of it may look boring, but these are hardly the most interesting places.

I've developed Crit fever apparently. Well that and i can't do Mt stages which has put a stop on the GToCE and USPCC for the moment.
So expect more crit series to come thick and fast!
Thus if you have a request or idea for a one off crit or a series of races, then please let me know

@roturn
4 hilly and 1 cobbled crit coming today. Then probably more mixed series. But Texas is rather flat.
@sutty

Ok, so here is a look at the Ronde, Roubaix and Liege crits. San Remo and Lombarida are incredibly annoying but will be made over the weekend. I'll only do an upload when i've finished all the races. I've tried to make the landscapes as realistic as possible, but its not all accurate.
Ronde Kwaremont
The Ronde Kwaremont begins in Kwaremont. Then every lap it tackles both the Oude Kwaremont and the Paterberg. The race finishes atop the Oude Kwaremont.
The Crit version is 57km.
The Monument version is 254km.
Grand Prix de Roubaix
Begins outside the Velodrome. It heads out on the roads of the main race. It runs a couple of laps around Willems taking in two separate cobbled sections. The race finishes inside the famous Velodrome.
The Crit race is 62km.
The Monument version is 261km.
Liege Challenge
The Liege Challenge starts down by the river. Each lap it tackles the Cote de Saint-Nicolas (well its the same hill but up a different road). The race finishes just off of the summit of the climb.
The Crit race is 55km.
The Monument version is 257km and finishes slightly further off the top of the climb.

Mid season? Single Race? Only race 1?

Fancy doing a bit of cooperation on the Tour of Britain? Ive effectively already made some of the 2013 stages based on the zcts files that I already have. I had in mind to make some of the 2013 ones aswell, but no point having 2 versions of them
