Damn - one of the few nations Cavendish Fan missed out in his mega Red Bull pack of jerseys!
Now, that's ironic

A couple of national champs would be nice. I think my best chance will be Uran in Colombia and perhaps Intxausti in Spain. Ulissi might surprise again in Italy, although he's in the disadvantage on a flat course. Let's hope some other of my riders can get a surprise result aswell .

To whoever wins the German RR: You're welcome!
Sucks to miss these, but that means more time to prepare for renewals etc. and less frustration to end the season with (although the Worlds already sucked enough).

Hope we win France - Gautier must surely be favourite on a hilly course I'd think? And then I already have the double win in Sri Lanka sewn up which is nice.
Am going to try to do odds for some of the bigger nations tonight, but I'm not going to have time to do many. So if anyone can help out, great  |

Read the last sentence of the first post again. 
Spoiler For exactly the same reason, I am not sure if bets will work. Except for having Another Rider on 1.1 maximum.

Oh I know, SN told me as much yesterday. Putting another rider as favourite in every race though  |

And even if it`s a favourite win, it`s gonna be Roux. |

That's fine, I plan on signing him anyway. See Gautier last season |

It's not going to be a favorite win. Koretzky will take it. He has more PT stagewins than any of the hilly frenchies this season

Yeah! Flat NC for Italy! As always my biggest hope is to get the Japanese champion. Congrats to all the "winners" so far

Yay an NC!
Was debating whether to keep Navarro or not, but I think after that highly impressive ride he deserves a contract for next year.

Outside of Bulgaria i don't think we've got a real winning quality rider. But hopefully that will lead to some breakaway attempts that could bring in one or two more jerseys to the team.
Can't wait to get started on the real final part of the 2014 season!

Unless Peeters starts working his magic, our chances to win an NC will only come from a breakaway.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Which isn't exactly a bad thing in those NCs
No spoiler, of course!

To all the guys who've never witnessed MG NCs: Remember the shitty AI we get all season long? NC's AI is like a psychotic breakdown of regular season's AI.
If you think you don't have the slightest chance, then your chances are probably as good as they could ever be. Seriously!
"Man-Game Madness" gets a much more literal meaning this time of the year.
