Bank Statement -
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Basic%20Management/BankStatement-1.jpg
Note: Changed over from US Dollars to Euros. For the sake of Rider Contracts at the end of the season. Better due it now than later in the season.

Other than that everything is still on the rise. And at a good clip.

Scouting -
We are sad to report we had to let our scout go due keep the Bank Statement looking good as it is. Reason for the the departure given to the scout is as followed: 1) He is stuck in Southern France, 2) He was stopped giving reports, and 3) He is taking up our money. He thanked he for his service and located our top prospect Jimmy Licina, who signed during April, and sent him on his way. No more scouts for the rest of the season.

Awards -

Best Rider - Gustav Erik Larsson
Best Young Rider - Richard Ackerman

May Preview -
Szlakiem Grodow Piastowskich - 4 Stages
Amgen Tour of California - 9 Stages - Team Goal Race
Bayern-Rundfahrt - 5 Stages - Team Goal Race

April was full of surprises, achievements and a few disappointments. May is going to either make or break this new team with 2 goal races ahead. I wish the riders the best of luck in the next month.

Szlakiem Grodow Piastowskich Stage 1 Report

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Profile.jpg

Our Riders -
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Riders.jpg

A very short 40km city curcuit is in place to start the 4 stage tour. Talansky will look to put up some good sprints to erase his early season failures, and prepare for the second half of the season.

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Breakaway.jpg
The early breakaway, which contains Ackerman ...
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Breakaway2.jpg
Ackerman keeps out front for a little longer than the other breakaway riders ...
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/AckermanCaught.jpg
But eventually is caught by the peloton (One of my epic fails in writing the story, I have been mispelling peloton for almost all the reports, I just noticed. No more doing that.)

With 8km to go, the sprint trains started to for but the first stage brings along nerves. And in the middle of the peloton the quick burst of speed from the front creates chaos in back.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Crash1.jpg
Lovkvist is right in the middle of it ...
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Crash2.jpg
But magically avoids the crash, and so did all the other of our riders. Now back at the front Talansky is trying to put his past behind with a great sprint.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/1kmtogo.jpg
With no lead-out for Talansky, he does manage to catch a train but when it comes to the sprint he still is not in form.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Finish.jpg
And crosses in 14th Place. Top 3 gain time bonuses (+10, +6, +4)

Interview - Andrew Talansky
Q: 14th Today, any comments?
A: Yeah, just that I know that I'm not in form yet and you guys, the media, can stop bashing me about it. My training program is set to for me to shine at the end of the season. And last time I checked it is the start of May.

Szlakiem Grodow Piastowskich Stage 2 Report

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Profile-1.jpg

Classified as a hilly stage, Lovkvist comes in as the favorite. But in my eyes it looks more flat so I would not be surprised if the stage is won in a bunch sprint.

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/SprintPoint1.jpg
5km into the race Lovkvist gets out in front of the peloton to take second and a 2 second time bonus, think that today might end in a bunch sprint as well.

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/AckermanAttack.jpg
Lovkvist drops back to the peloton and Ackerman jumps into the breakaway.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Chase.jpg
The breakaway contains a lot of riders, and the peloton is watching them very closely.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/TopofClimb.jpg
Over the last climb Ackerman takes second after skipping out on the other climbs today, and shortly after is reeled into the peloton.

Once the mourning breakaway was brought back to the peloton, their was another attack, and Lovkvist had to counter with strong GC contenders in the group.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/LovkvistAttack.jpg
And shortly after they crossed over the other sprint point on today's route and Lovkvist takes 3rd and 1 second bonus.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/SprintPoint2.jpg
After crossing the line the riders quickly slow down, ... Lovkvist use quick thinking and realizes there is only 15km left in the stage and the peloton 45 seconds back, he attacks again.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/LovkvistAttack2.jpg
At first there is no counter, but as soon as Lovkvist slows up, the other riders notice that they too could possible take the stage win and try and catch-up with Lovkvist.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/10kmtogo.jpg
And they do.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/5kmtogo.jpg
Just keeping their noses in front of the peloton.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Finish-1.jpg
And at the finish they come in ahead of the peloton, but Lovkvist comes in as the last rider of the group not having enough energy to sprint since he used it all up at the sprint points. But does sit 5th in GC just 10 seconds back.

Interview - Thomas Lovkvist
Q: Would you have gone after the sprint points if you knew the stage would not have finished as a bunch sprint?
A: I was going after the first sprint point no matter what, since it was just 5km out from the start so it was easy time. The other was just a bonus. So to answer the question, I think I would still have gone after the first one, but instead of racing for the second one I could of saved some energy for the finish.

Szlakiem Grodow Piastowskich Stage 3 Report

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Profile-2.jpg

The crucial stage for Lovkvist to jump up into the podium, or even to yellow. With only one flat stage left after today, the race GC winner will be crowned today.

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Breakaway-1.jpg
Ackerman gets into the early breakaway looking for KoM points, but the breakaway splits up often in the wind and Ackerman is left in the second group no earning any points.

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Leaders.jpg
Eventually everyone was brought back, and all that was left were these 86 riders. But with 20km to go, the first move was made.

And Caruso was riding away from the other 4 GC contendors including Lovkvist.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/10kmtogo-1.jpg
Now just behind Caruso was the yellow jersey and Lovkvist chasing.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/1kmtogo-1.jpg
With 1km to go the yellow jersey makes his kick which Lovkvist can't match.

And steals the win, Lovkvist rolls under the finish taking 3rd.

Interview - Thomas Lovkvist
Q: Were you surprised by Waele kick coming down towards the finish?
A: Yeah, I though I could take second, but out off nowhere he takes off. Then I just had to settle for 3rd because there was no need to counter because he was already gone.

Szlakiem Grodow Piastowskich Stage 4 Report

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Szlakiem%20Grodow%20Piastowskich/Profile-3.jpg

The last of the tour, Talansky will look for his first stage win of the year with the help of a Peraud leadout. Ackerman was no need to try and catch the breakaway today since he was no hope of winning the KoM after his bad luck on stage 3.

The early breakaway is held in check by the sprinter teams and never got more that 3 minutes on the peloton. And were caught with 20km to go. With 15km to go a small hill caused Talansky some trouble.

And he is dropped off the back ... The sprint is now in the hands of Peraud.

With 5km to go, Peraud is on the back of a sprint train, but then he gets greedy and tries to jump ship to another train. But is caught out of possition, and sent back to the middle of the peloton.

At the finish the second place rider, Vona is the real surprised as he was 4th in GC and with time bonus for 2nd he jumps over Lovkvist to take 3rd overall.

Interview - Andrew Talansky
Q: You had a pretty bad today, is that how you would discribe it?
A: More like awful, I'm just surprised I'm not getting bashed again by the reporters today, when considering this is the one day if I was reporter I would be bashing myself. I was just out of it today, and would like to say that I'm sorry to Peraud for changing his day today.

Update: I have been home for a few days after the cancelling of the vacation after receiving word that a family member had passed away. So I will still be taking the rest of the week off from the story after what was happened earlier this week. The next report might not come till the middle of next week just to be clear. I just hope to move on after a very rough week.

Interview - Gustav Erik Larsson
Q: Nice win today and jumped on top of the GC. Who do you consider as riders that could take away yellow from you?
A: I would have to give any other riders in the top 10 as of now I good chance, but especially the other 4 riders in the top 5 ... Vande Velde, Anton, Wiggins, and Cobo.

Amgen Tour of California Stage 2 Report

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Profile-1.jpg
With Larsson in yellow after his great ITT, today will be a recovery day for him, and hopefully the sprint teams will take control of the peloton since what looks to be an easy flat stage could turn into disaster with the unexpected rain.

At the first sprint point a breakaway tries to get away ...
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/SprintPoint.jpg
But the peloton brings back the large group of riders.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/UranAttack.jpg
Uran makes the next move on the road, and Thomas Peterson counters.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/TopofClimb1.jpg
Uran wins the mountain points, Peterson keeps up for 2nd. But they too are not aloud to get in front. A few other attempts were made, but ...
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/BreakawayCaught.jpg
Each time they were brought back after a few kilometers.

With 20km to go, the status on the road looked like this ...
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/20kmtogo4.jpg
Uran had made another move and is now leading over,
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/20kmtogo3.jpg
Teammate Sanchez.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/20kmtogo2.jpg
Then a lone rider, Calzati.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/20kmtogo1.jpg
Then the charging peloton.

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/10kmtogo2.jpg
With 10km to go Sanchez caught Uran and Calzati was back in the peloton.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/10kmtogo1.jpg
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/5kmtogo.jpg
The chase was on ...
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/1kmtogo.jpg
Sanchez goes off on his own, looking for glory.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Finish.jpg
And glory he gets after his solo win. And rips yellow off of Larsson's back.

Interview - Thomas Peterson
Q: Team didn't do much today, what can we expect for the rest of the tour?
A: Larsson mixing it up with the climbers with Daniel Martin and my help, but on these flat stage there is much we can do. So I'm kind of glad the leader's jersey is off the team shoulders as for now because this is a long tour to carry the pace making.

Amgen Tour of California Stage 3 Report

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Profile-2.jpg

With Larsson losing yellow in stage 2, today he will have to bounce back in order to keep hopes up for a top 3 in GC.

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/PetersonAttack.jpg
At the sight of the flag Peterson tries to create the morning breakaway.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/PetersonCaught.jpg
But the peloton shuts down Peterson's attempt. A breakaway did manage to escape but Peterson could not catch them. But the peloton eventually did anyways right before the finally climb.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/AntonAttack.jpg
Igor Anton makes the first move, and Larsson makes a counter ...
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Anton1.jpg
But Anton is to fast, Larsson pulls back to the peloton.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/CoboAttack.jpg
Cobo sees Anton's gap and knows he was to make a move if Larsson doesn't have the energy.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Gaps.jpg
Over top the peloton was split into 3 groups with Anton the leader in Cobo riding in 2nd. And Larsson was caught in the middle group now even behind teammate Daniel Martin.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Anton2.jpg
Anton is riding away from everyone including Cobo.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/10kmtogo.jpg
With 10km to go Larsson was in sight of Martin's group and Bradley Wiggins decide it was time for his move.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Finish1.jpg
At the finish Anton has a solo victory, with Cobo riding home in 2nd, 3rd Luis Leon Sanchez.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Finish2.jpg
Martin crosses in 15th 1'07'' back, and Larsson in 19th but he just miss the 1'07'' group and gets put back 2'04''.

Interview - Daniel Martin
Q: Are you the new leader of EA-Sony Ericsson Cycling for the rest of the tour since you jumped Larsson by almost a minute?
A: I have not spoked yet to the team manager but looking at the GC I'm going to try and get the approval to be the leader. Also if you would ask Larsson he would agree that I can climb better than him as well.

Amgen Tour of California Stage 4 Report

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Profile-3.jpg

A flat stage today will be a relief for the team after 3 hard stages to start the tour. Hopefully Peraud can put together another good sprint for the team with some help from G.E. Larsson. Who has also given great leadouts to Talansky earlier in the season.

Many breakaways formed throughout the first 50kms but when everything was settled after the sprint and mountain points, 15 riders stood alone out front.

But all the real favourites were still in the peloton chasing down the breakaway with a time gap of 2'30''.

15km to go and the majority of the breakaway was almost back in the pack.

With 10km to go the chase was still on.

Larsson had Peraud on his wheel ...

And started a huge leadout!

With 5km to go the duo passed the two leaders, and were steaming towards the finish line.

Peraud makes his move around Larsson and into the final sprint.

Larsson looks back and realizes he was a shot at 2nd.

The 1 - 2 Punch. Peraud brings home 1st, and Larsson follows in 2nd. What a result for the team.

Interview - Jean-Christophe Peraud
Q: Huge win for the team, what does this win mean to you?
A: That this team is here to race and contend every stage, not just the ITT or mountain stages. Even though we don't have a pure sprinter we find ways to win. I would like to send a message out to Larsson for the leadout he gave me, but also for letting me take the stage win, a true teamate and leader.

With many riders looking at the hills ahead two breakaway groups form looking for that solo victory, Peterson trys to get in one of the two groups but is unsuccessful. So we are forced to put in the effort to bring back the two breakaways.

Eventually only 5 riders where left, ...

And then there was none ... We did our job. Now it was time for Larsson & Peraud.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/10kmtogo-2.jpg
With 10km to go Peraud was on Larsson's back wheel ...

Larsson makes his move to the front.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/5kmtogo-2.jpg
With 5km Peraud looks back and they where pulling away again!
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Leadout2.jpg
Peraud launchs with no pressure from behind, now Larsson peaks back and knows he was a great shot at a time gap, what a leadout.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/1kmtogo-1.jpg
Peraud was home free, Larsson close behind.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Finish-1.jpg
They had did it again! But this time created a 35 second gap.

And yes I'm still playing on hard, I checked if I accidently changed it to normal or easy after the stage, but nope it was still on hard.

Interview - Gustav Erik Larsson
Q: Great win for the team today, plus for an added bonus you gain 35 seconds back, are you now back as the new team leader for the rest of the tour?
A: Looking over the rest of the stages in the tour I would say that I have the best shot still at getting the top 3 in GC with a ITT still remaining. So I guess that would make me the team leader, wouldn't it.

Amgen Tour of California Stage 6 Report

Another easy flat stage faces the riders today before heading into tomorrow's ITT which will separate the contendors from the pretendors. Larsson and Peraud will look to hook-up again for a third win in a row.

And with no further adieu, lets get right to the sprint finish ...

Interview - Jean-Christophe Peraud
Q: Couldn't get number three today, what is your goal for the rest of the tour?
A: Well stage 8 is a nice flat stage for me and Larsson to get the third stage win but tomorrow I want to put up a great time in the ITT, I'm think a top 15 would be an achievement for me with a great goup of TT's in the field.

Interview - Gustav Erik Larsson
Q: Not only did you get the stage win today you gain enough time to put yellow back on, and extend your lead in the points classification. Now if only two stages left, one flat and one a little hilly, do you have what it takes to bring home both the yellow and green jersey?
A: Why not, sure a hilly stage 9 is going to be my biggest challenge to keep yellow away from Anton since I only have a 2 second lead but I'm in great form and anything is possible, as for the points I think I have this one in the bag with a leadout for Peraud in stage 8.

Amgen Tour of California Stage 8 Report

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Profile-7.jpg
Stage 8 looks like a good day for the breakaway or another mass sprint finish. Stage 7 ITT put Larsson back in yellow and with just two stages left can he hold on to it?

i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/PetersonBreakaway.jpg
Peterson gets away with a few other riders, and takes 1st over top of the only climb on today's route.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/Breakaway-2.jpg
By the sprint point Peterson is in large group of 19 riders, 2'30'' in front of the peloton.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/PetersonAttack-1.jpg
With the peloton catching the group makes a last ditch effort.

But it fails.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/MartinAttack.jpg
With the kms tick down the Irishman Daniel Martin sees a chance to make an impression. But can't get away.
i898.photobucket.com/albums/ac189/Mresuperstar/Amgen%20Tour%20of%20California/1kmtogo-3.jpg
With 1km to go Larsson is ahead of the field, without Peraud who couldn't stick to his wheel. With the finish line right ahead, it was going to be a fight between Larsson and Team Sky Sprinter Greg Henderson.

Interview - Gustav Erik Larsson
Q: One stage left, how are you feeling? Oh, and great win.
A: Amazing, the training program for this team is crazy good. They know your needs and get you ready and in perfect form for every race. I'm glad I signed here for this season and hopefully for years to come. I'm having fun.

Manager - Mresuperstar
(Sorry about the long delay, School started backup and have been really busy, I at least want to push through this season, and hopefully in a second season using PCM10) Oh, and Post #300!
THANKS FOR READING, COMMENTS ALWAYS WELCOME

No problem. Quite an enjoyable read. Any chance of you being able to play online in PCM 10 yet, or is it still not working?

Nope my cpu has all sort of problems, it is start to lag bad even now just playing career mode. If I make it to a 2nd season I'm think of moving the story over to my laptop which has the best graphics for PCM10, but even that can handle gamecenter. It's weird and I think it is best to leave it alone.
