Can`t you just open the PCM Daily with Excel?
Full Editor or so.
Then go the RES stat and make the whole coloumn 5 lower or so. Shouldn`t be that hard.
Well thats what I'm saying, I dont know how Can you do it with the Full Editor, or Excel Editor? Can't seem to do it, in Lachis.

First stage is up, and small note, my riders were on 99 energy and didn't run out until the final 500m.
Giro del Trentino: TTT Stage 1
Squad for Trentino
The first big team out of the start ramp was Radioshack! They ripped through the course and took the top time at the half way time check! They were riding very fast and finished off the day in 2nd place!
Next was Argos Shimano who rode below expectations, but still managed to save the time loss, losing only 34 seconds to the eventual winners.
Now it was our turn to ride! We had practised this a few times already this year, in preperation for the Giro and we were one of the favourites going into the stage! However when we made it to the time time check we were already down. We tried getting our specialists to the front more, and hopefully limit the loss.
Then Sky another big favourite for the day, however they could only get within 34 seconds of the eventual race winners too. Still not much time lost with 3 mountain stages after this!
And now BMC! They just blazed through the city and took the top spot. Van Garderen was a big help to the team as well as Pinotti and Cummings! Its a great start for Tejay too, so lets hope he's in good form!
And then we finally finished off the stage. We lost over 1 minute to BMC and it was a big disappointment. It must have been the conditions we rode in, that gave us this disadvantage, theres no other explanation.

Seeing as you were at 99 energy for that long I don't see how you got such a bad position 
Funny seeing Tejay dropped by 7 seconds from BMC at the end, does that have anything to do with the PCM TTT glitch? |

Not a good start here but TTT are always difficult.
Also nice to see Stybar on the team 
Dario has to attack now, good luck

Can only presume you set 1 rider to 99 and left the others at 80 - done that myself a few times - can't believe it gave you that shit a performance if you were at full gas. |

That didn't go quite well there, but team time trials have always been an issue on PCM. |
