Ohh right, yes that wast a skeet-shooting disk!  All this losing ain't good for my sense I've got to be a better player, or get some better riders! |

I'm Euskaltel, yes. Last year I also lost the jersey at the last TT, but then to Contador. Need to practice on those. |

Sending a rider to the back of the group to get water on one of those narrow winding descents. Everyone is yearning for water after the hard climb. The guy keeps getting cut and has to start all over again. At the 4th attempt he loses contact with the group and I lose my temper with the game

It's the Interface Update, I think.

I had the target of top 10 in Clasica de almeria. It seems easy but i´m playing with a team of very young riders and it´s difficult for me. After doing a great stage i finished third, one of my best results in the game but when the others riders were passing through the line the game crashes to the desktop and i have to play again. This is really frustrating. |

Deactivate replays if the game crashes in the end. Also lower your graphic a bit. |

Thanks for the advice. I´ve already desactivated the replays, maybe i should lower the graphics but it happens very few times.
when i repeat the race i try the same tactic and i get my first win |

I know it's offtopic but i get the same problem. After i finish a race, when the headline in the newspaper apears the game crashes. It doesn't happen always but it's very annoying. I desactivated the replays, the graphic details are set to low. Does anyone know why? |

Fuck, just lost Milan-San Remo! Attacked on the last climb, but got caught just a 100 meters before the finish line! Fuck Tom Boonen! |

I don't know what happened but I was sprinting to the line in first postition......so I thought I should celebrate. I needed the win in order to take the sprinters jersey and fufill a sponser goal. However, when I got to the line I noticed I hadn;t won and realized there was still 300m left to the finsh. It was some glitch that made the finish line furthur than wear the painted line was. Anways I ended up coming in third, losing the jersey and breaking my mouse. |

Becoming WC with a lesser rider, and your game crashing on the line. Really really not funny.

Last stage of Dauphine Liberé 2010, riding with Saxo bank. Andy Schleck is the leader, 1'30'' of advtange to sammy sanchez, the 3d place is 7minutes behind andy.
A medium-hilly stage, I thought there would be no problems.
Last 5 hills, smal pack, about 50 strong guys. Richie Porte pushing the pace on the front and flugsang protecting Andy.
Theres a break in the pack, near the front. Porte gets in a escape group with other 7 guys, including sanchez. Andy is near the front.
The escape got only 40s. As porte stopped to work. I thougt that wouldnt be a need to attack with andy to chase down the escape. Poor of me.
Put flugsang to push the pack with 85%, escape with 40s;
Then sanchez does a lonely attack, almost 90km to go, so "Crazy guy hum?"
The pack reeled in the E2, porte and flugsang pushing it hard. And sanchez's still gaining time.
50km to go and sanchez has 5'30'' of advantage!!!
then keep on pushing REALLY hard, there were about 3 hills to go. The pack blows. The chase is reduced to 12 guys. Then Porte is out of energy and gets dropped. Just andy and flugsang. Andy is helping to push at 65 and flugsang at 78.
The time is reducing, but slowly. 20km to go and sanchez has 4'30'' on.
Andy needs to drop all the others and keep on a strong pace.
Just one other rider managed to go with him. On the last climb Andy is already out of energy, but he putted 3' of advantage on the chase. He still crosses the line 4 minutes after sanchez. poor of me. Lost the points and yellow jersey.
On Giro, porte was 4th general and 1st on the young riders. Around the 15 stage. He falls and get dropped by the pack. Didnt managed to bring him back, and he lost almost 10 minutes.
He even won the final ITT, but that wasnt enought. 19 place.
but I've kept the maglia rosa with Larsson for around 8 stages. great work! |

That sucks.
I got this shit going whenever I wear the leaders-jersey in Tour down under. Then ugly things start to happen.
With both my latest custom teams I have had the leader jersey I have been involved in crashes causing me loosing by several minutes and even major damage to my riders. For the future I`m boycotting TdU...

have Haussler about 6 bike lengths ahead of everyone in the final 800m of Paris-Roubaix...Boonen comes from way out to clobber him at the line, and the third-place finisher is awarded second for some reason... |
