Well, maybe early but since I'm going to a wedding later today I think I'll sleep tomorrow, so definately no report until Saturday
Well, I think this will need to be posted after NZCC is finished with lots of riders in both races.
If that is the case then we have 2 weeks or so based on the current pace of the NZCC right now.

Calm down folks, just a wee bit of patience surely! We are less than a week into reporting, and already 9 calendar days complete + Qatar and Tachira well in progress (equivalent to 15 calendar days elapsed!). The pace is excellent, hopefully can be maintained through the season, although it is a big ask. Perhaps might catch up somewhat on the irl calendar  .
Looking forward to more of the NZCC as it appears.

As I agree that its not time to go crazy about new Zealand, I do agree with kentarus that if your gonna wait for new Zealand to finish then it might take some time considering the current pace |

The last stage of NZ was only two days ago... it's not like it's been a week or anything. Perhaps the very fast pace of other reports make not having a stage for a day slow, but it's hardly grounds on which one can complain.

New Zealand will be finished soon, cio has been busy but I'm sure he has things under control. Don't see what the problem is, although certain managers seem to believe things revolve around them at times. It'll get done. |

After watching Armindo Fonseca sprint in New Zealand I'm optimistic that he can score here. Top 15 is anticipated, top 10 desiderated.

Report is up, waited for cio to finish the NZCC, but since I'm left without access to my pc until Wednesday from now basically, couldn't wait any longer, or I would've slowed the game.
Anyway, odd AI again...

Well. Not much to say here. Bad January for TomTom, up to now.

2nd! What a great result! Even though it was the only race we didn't need anything 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Not stupendous, but at least Mayho got sixth. Still upset that Haddou got caught out...

Edmondson`s 2nd good result today.
He should be a beast when he continues like this as he is level 1 only. |

In a race like this it is naff that a breakaway takes it. I mean not too bad if a strong lat race move does it but it us difficult to believe that a break would have the strength to stay away there.
As soon as sprinters started being dropped it looked like conditions were tough were they? No mention of wind in report? In general I think it was reported well just that one detail I would have liked.
Miserable start to the season for sprinters in general really for C2.

We had everyone in the front that we needed to, but yet, We put Rasmussen on the front? Not really sure what happened there, absolutely horrible race. Niki 15th is the only spot of any possible hope.

Welcome to Australia, and this isn’t the weather you’d expect this time a year here. It’s cold, windy, and there might fall some rain during this race. But that shouldn’t stop the riders from making a nice race to watch!

Thanks roturn for this loanee. He already deserved the spot in our roster just after january has (nearly) finished.
Let's hope he continues to be that aggressive.
Also a  to Yannick Stoltz. 11th in the sprint despite of 60SP
A great race for black and yellow!
A Big Thank You To All MG Reporters! |

Safe to say that didn't go well with our best rider finishing 44th, I'm disappointed both our sprinters dropped together, I thought if one dropped we could still rely on the other to at least try a sprint.

Truly disappointing stuff here. Not talking bout the report, of course, but those are the wrong names for a pure flat sprinters classic Congrats to those scoring unexpected points. At least Drapac did fairly well, but still to less to call it a success. Hoping for better pursuits in HC/C1 classics
