wow good I backuped my save, applied for a loan but just when I had enough the money for Calzati went off and sent me bankrupt
time to activate the backup (which was made after 16 october )
Ignatiev=correct
Benatti=correct
however who is my Spanish Climber?
btw I forgot to mention that I also signed Kanstantin Sioutsou

why can't you do it with Japes Save Game Editor 1.1
1.1 version works for me absolutley fine
and does that mean, it's either Gil or Vila

I know I mailed you (Domoman) but on my last try I solved the problem without cheating
I had 6.000 in December but now the sponsors granted me 5.500.000 --8)
next: Our 3 biggest signings and 1 guy that we signed at the last moment. Also I will let you know what the other Pro Tour teams/riders did and at last our new team for the season!

Not cheating was the better option I guess...
(I think I'll have to if I want to win anything in my story...)

haha, but I did had to fire all the trainers, doctors and scouts
ok, our last 4 signings to fill up and complete our squad which will have 30 riders
Samoilev the 2nd, only a bit older and experienced
And another guy who speaks Russian, Russian might become the main language among the riders next year :
And now our 2 leaders, we negotiated with Napolitano for the 30th spot but why take him when you can have:
Daniele will be our guy for MSR, Giro and Le Tour!
And our last one, its not David Lopez, not Mayo nor Garate its:
Our leader for many races such as Fleche Wallone, pais Vasco and Le Tour!
So that completes our transfers, what did the ai do?
CONTINENTAL TRANSFERS:
The 'realistic' ones
 Domenico Pozzovivo -> Miche
 Pedro Arreitunandia -> Miche
 Evgeni Petrov -> Ceramica Flaminia
 Felix Cardenas -> Volksbank
 Staf Scheirlinckx -> Jartazi
 Sylvain Chavanel -> Jartazi
Dario David Cioni -> Slipstream
Jelle Vanendert -> RaboCT (kinda realistic and also funny how he backstabs his own team lol!)

AG2R Prevoyance:
Juan Jose Cobo
David Boucher
Francaise Des Jeux:
Rafael Rodriguez
Fredy Piamonte
Gerolsteiner:
Pablo Urtasun

 Paul van Schalen
Bram Schmitz
Marco Bos
 Ruslan Grychenko
 Gregor Gazvoda
Ludovic Bret
 Alejandro Borrajo
Tinkoff Credit Systems:
Saw all their stars go...but boy did those Russians buy alot, looking at this team it might not be so difficult for them to survive in the Pro Toyr
Emanuelle Sella
 Julio Alberto Perez Cuapio
 Chris Horner
Ivan Parra Pinto
Jose Castelblanco
Benat Intxausti
Luis Perez Rodriguez
Santi Perez

thanks, and I think Pro Tour survival should be possible because of Benatti and Gil
Now back to business, we changed our schedule a bit, making this our only race of the month
The first race of our season and we took it easy today, however 5 others decided to attack and so we had a strong group up front in this nasty stage
Giraldo leads Bichot, Van Hecke, Thijs and Power over the hill, he would take the mountain jersey today
Giraldo was however the first to get dropped, the remaining 4 were caught with 12 kms to go and now it was time to see who has the best legs this early in the season, Docker shows form by ending 6th after coming from a bad position. Aulas ends 12th but our own Takashi was closest to victory today!
Pedersen wins in front of Van Loocke and Miyazawa!
Result:
1. Martin Pedersen TEAM CSC 4h01'57
2. Jurgen Van Loocke AGRITUBEL s.t.
3.  Takashi Miyazawa NIPPO CORPORATION - MEITAN HOMPO CO. LTD - ASADA s.t.
4. Gabriele Balducci CHOCOLADE JACQUES - TOPSPORT VLAANDEREN s.t.
5. Jean-Patrick Nazon AG2R PRÉVOYANCE s.t.

Not a very tough stage but perhaps a perfect stage for a break, today either Stundzia or Mironov would attack and even though Stundzia would have been a better decision Mironov was the one who attacked after km 1, he was accompanied by 5 others and the 6 started to build up a nice lead but I was already worried because Mironov was perhaps the weakest climber in the group...
Mironov up front with Norris, Leys, Hinault, Ljungblad and Jurco behind him
Then on the toughest climb of the day Leys has to go and Mironov soon joins him. Then a climb later its down to 2 as Ljungblad and Hinault can't keep anymore. The 2 up front look to be safe and then Norris slowly breaks Jurco and gets rid of the Slovakian who is a better sprinter then Norris. Jurco gets close on the flat part which isnt exactly Norris' terrain (59FL) but he still takes the win after a great performance. Mironov gets taken in while going for the 5th place and is our best rider today ending 10th. So Norris wins but he doesnt take the lead after he had already lost time today, the lead goes to Jurco.
Norris surprises friend and foe by winning today, however Jurco takes the lead!
Result:
1. Lachlan Norris DRAPAC PORSCHE DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM 3h53'35
2.  Matej Jurco TEAM MILRAM s.t.
3. Sébastien Hinault CRÉDIT AGRICOLE + 2'29
