admirschleck: No worries, the story had quite a lot of "down-time" as well...
I might at some point continue the story on PCM13, but I won't be bying the game until all the major bugs have been solved and there's a proper DB with lots of races and variants.
Miguel: And he will chase that chance!

Tour de San Luis
Stage 5: Capital del Marmol Onix - Merlo
Time to try and win back some time…
Jeppe Lykke Hartvig Nielsen gets in the big break of the day with a total of 14 riders. Too many for it to be allowed away.
To be honest nothing more really happened until the climb began.
Disappointed by his effort in the TT Jesper Hansen attacks right at the bottom of the mountain.
He gets a small gap, but is caught again when Tschopp and Popovych starts attacking.
All my guys do their very best, but today that just doesn’t quite cut it…
A strong effort by Tschopp to take the stage, while Popovych is new in the leaders jersey.

Stage 6: La Huertita – La Carolina
Last important day for the GC, though it will probably be hard to make much of a difference today.
Johann takes another day in the break. Closing in on the first KOM he tries to take the points, but is faced with some very tough opposition today.
On the mountain it’s Seeldreyers and Tschopp, who set the pace and with great problems for a lot of riders as a result. With them 6 km from the top are Jesper Hansen, Popovych and the three Shimano-riders Geschke, Gerdemann and Schumacher.
Three km from the top Jesper tries to see how much damage he can do on a good day – despite not being in excellent form. And he gets a good gap.
Across the summit he is in front with Tschopp and Seeldrayers.
Unfortunately the trio is caught by seven riders from behind and with 4 km to the line the front group has 1’22’’ to another 10-rider group containing Veikkanen and Sterebo.
Jesper tries to get away on the descent before the final climb, but he can’t get past the others and instead things will be decided in a sprint.
Once again Tschopp is the strongest, but Jesper puts in a very good effort as well. Now we can just hope he gains enough time to steal the youth jersey.
Tschopp takes the GC and points lead while Jesper Hansen retains the mountain jersey and takes the young riders jersey.

Stage 7: San Luis - Trapiche
Final stage looks to be one for the sprinters.
As usual a break gets going early on. In spite of Jens Erik trying a lot we fail to get anyone in there today.
Most of the day it’s Colombia, who lead the peloton, but they are only interested in protecting the GC, so with 70 km to go we start chasing a bunch sprint for Kristoff, who says he has great legs today.
With 3 km to the line three breakers still has 21 seconds, but that won’t last long!
The break still hold on to a small gap with 1,5 km left but the sprinetrs lead by van Poppel are coming fast from behind.
Kristoff was looking good, but juas as he opens his sprint he gets boxed in behind Biondo and Trussov.
That ends up completely destroying his sprint to great joy for Cardoso.

Two riders in top 10, two jerseys and a stage win has to be considered a good success for a race that was mainly a warm-up race.
Jesper will ahve to do some work on his TT-skills though...

In the end it came out all right, but it wasn't the strongest tour for the team, though;
Jesper is doing well |

Miguel98: Certainly a good win for Cardoso and his team
ThVoets Yeah, I don't like swelling too much on the less important races.
Ian: It wasn't - mainly because I hadn't brought someone who could both climb and TT...
sutty: In deed quite good results here in the early season.

Rider of the Month: Edvald Boasson Hagen, Volvo – SAS. Winning the only WT-race of the month pretty much bags this one…
Nordic Rider of the month: Edvald Boasson Hagen, Volvo – SAS. Well…
We have managed to secure you all an interview with the rider on everybody’s lips at the moment: Edvald Boasson Hagen.
Thanks for coming Edvald, first of all congratulations on your win Down Under. It must be a special feeling to win the first race for your new team…
It certainly is. Especially considering that Vodafone wouldn’t let me ride my last chance in any WT-race last year. It’s really a pleasure to be at a team, who really wants everyone to achieve the most their talent allows.
The first couple of bunch sprint looked quite chaotic though…
I know. You have to realize that this team has never made a sprint train before, so they still have a lot to learn in that way. At the same time I haven’t been allowed to chase a sprint win in a WT-race for more than a year, so I’m a bit rusty as well. I feel confident that we will do great things together though!
What kind of big things?
Well, this season I have to main goals: Winning Milano – Sanremo again and taking the green jersey in the Tour de France. If I have anything left in the bag I might go for the Worlds Championships, but it’s hard to top three times over the course of a season.
A green jersey and Milano – Sanremo should spell a great season anyway! All of us at the Rear Wheel wish you the best of luck to you and the rest of the team!

On the other hand Lotto have announced that they will stop sponsoring the successful Belgian Team.

Spoiler Some of the less important races will only be reported very briefly. Everything reported like this has been raced, but are just not important enough to take up a lot of space/time in the story...
Generally these races will be races chasing success for some of the smaller riders and/or form-builders for the captains.
Vuelta a Mallorca
For a large part this race was a Movistar-show. All of the hilly stages finished flat, so the terrain didn’t give us much chance to make big time differences – even though the guys did their very best.
Movistar took a 1-2-3 on stage 3 and then just defended the win safely for the rest of the race...
For us the absolute highlight has to be the last stage where Nicki Sørensen went in a break. On the first hill found out that his two breakaway companions were worthless and then went solo for 110 km to take the mountain jersey and the stage. Brilliantly done!
On that stage Jesper Hansen finished 5th in a final try to gain some time in the GC. Still finishing 10th in the same time as riders like Nibali, Rui Costa and Fränk Schleck is a very good effort…
Stage Results Stage 1: J.J. Rojas (Endura) / T. Bos / A. Kristoff
