2nd season with my Iranian Azad fellows. Completed almost all sponsor goals in season 1 so the goals are a bit more difficult now. But so far we're doing them.
Most they want is stage wins, and my best sprinter Khalili has 70 SP/71ACC now. Which is hard against most CT sprinters that have 73/74 and much better flat/hill stats. But even on hard level i pick up my wins anyway 
Also scouted some good potential 5 iranians for next season.. no pot 6/7/8 yet. So the dominance of Iran has to wait |

Khalili(khosroshani)?... 
Great rider for my MG team this season if that is him, hopefully he does well for you. Azad is certainly an interesting challenge.. will be good to see if ou can get them up into Pro Continental soon. |

Yes!! Khosroshani indeed! He is my main sprinter now.
I have Godarzi for the more difficult races and then Saaeidi Tanha and Jannat for hilly stages.. but that's about it.
Maleki for sprints too if Khalili Khosroshani is out.. |

Decided to start a new career, alongside OGE and Projob. This one is from the FCD though.
Pretty much every race in South America, so a brilliant calendar here. Initial calendar consists of 15 races, of which 4 are European.

The third ING update. The next three races were the hilly classics, so I've done them all! Each one was remarkably similar, and much easier than I remember from pcm12. Remember this is my only WT career from 13. Or it may be the horrendously overpowered squad.
Every time there were a series of attacks, which Cervero dotted up to/responded to. Until the final km of AGR, I was still doubting his fitness, so I sent him up front to work for Oleg Shatskikh. He blew everyone to shreds on the Cauberg, and started his sprint, and continued on, winning the first hilly classic.
In F-W the race was much the same. A small, though larger, group approached the final climb, Cervero hits the front, Cervero sprints, no one follows, Cervero wins. He gained a 1:00 gap in 1km!
L-B-L. I'd been here before in PCM 12. Could he take the triple. Last time he couldn't (Shatskikh won  ) this time the race was pretty mediocre, AGR by far the best race (for once  ) Cervero hit the front on the penultimate climb, and broke off. He held it on the descent, and took L-B-L by storm, see photo.
I've also started a conti (slightly less OP) Origin Energy team, screen below

Then why is Cervero so bad in EPIC?
I'd happily switch the two |

Willier
Quick update. Re-signed with Willier as a sponsor until 2018. They are happy, we are happy so it just made sense. Allowed us to move forward with transfers.
Highlights: Caleb Ewan (79SP) and Geraint Thomas (78 CB/TT/PL 76Mo/HL) and some others to take us up to 30 total riders
Why 30? Because going into August was had a 700point lead in the rankings and all but securing promotion. Giro helped but we finished 1-3 in Osterreich and had 3 riders in the top10 in Quinghai as well as our largest ever number of wins and a plethora of jersey wins

Not just that.
85 > 80
77 > 72
65 > 55
They all help as well

Wellllllllllll
Originally, Cervero was 85 hill. Before Ollfardh created a special rule just to sabotage him 
Then, I made him 77 spr, 78 acc. Ollfardh also created a rule to disallow this
And I'm not sure what the 65-55 thing is anyway
Soooooo, Ollfardh is a cruel dictator who dicriminates against overpowered unrealistic imaginary Costa Rican people.
I rest my travel case.

He didn't create a rule, the rule was already there I think.
And meant FTR. Cervero is a rider supposed to attack, but he won't
And cruel dictator. Fits with his custom rider I guess

For african, asian and south american careers, this db is great!
I'm also playing one with a fantasy colombian team, only new generated riders and 3 or 4"elite-2" riders... it took me 2 seasons to be PCT (2013-14), 1 to get WT(2015), in my first WT season I got quite good results (2016), and now in my 2nd WT year my target is a GT (That's why I signed Urán and some other good colombians from other teams in these years)
Good luck! you should report vuelta a Colombia, Táchira and more...

I'll probably update after season 1, as it shouldn't take too long, even though I'll probably play every single stage in 3D

Just a quick question: Do rider goals and thus the fitness curve carry over from one season to another or does the game change it to something different at the start of the new season? Also, do the training groups stay the same when you begin a new season with the team?

You have to change them in the new season.

Thanks Jesleyh. Now I know what to expect. Cyanide really don't want for us to have fun planning a season it seems.
