Are there always attacks within the first 20 km, regardless of stage, as in PCM 07? |

Hello, two questions about training since there are no more progress in percentage how can you find out when your rider will progress next level (more stars higher progress but how fast and when)? Any chance to check it out any way else than just guessing?
And what is the best training regime for stage races specialisation? Climber should be mountain, Puncher hills, Sprinter sprint etc just no idea what training would be best for stage races specialisation.
Thx for answers. |

Biggest bug so far: mountain stage on a very steep descent, I set my leader to 99%, he doesn't tire all that much and blows past all the other favorites at lightning speed. they descent cautiously.
Stupid and extremely easy to exploit...

mountain, stamina, time trial, resistance and recovery
stage racer training insists heavily in all these, but mostly recovery.
Why do you want to know? it's not like you can set training to just one attribute

Because before (07) there was "Stage race" training program which isnt there anymore... i know which attributes are best to have for stage racer BUT there is NO program especially for stage racers anymore... i hope you understand me now. |

It isn't there? that's strange. oh well. go alternatively for climber of time trial, whatever you feel is more important at a given time.

Does everyone not have a stage race specialized training thing.
I have a question about the db editor. It only has custom db in it when i open it. How can i take a look at my official one (aka Dankan's one).
Last question, I was playing it last night and wanted to drink one of my bottles, but i couldn't figure out how, is there a way to drink one of you bottles.

1: what CrueTrue said
2: he decides when to drink. you just make sure he has water left, otherwise his energy will decrease VERY fast (AKA: "the bonk"

the final climb of a mountain stage is usually attacks, attacks and more attacks, and slowly those who can't follow are left behind one by one.

I saved 25 dollars on buying it online.. if i would buy it in norway, it will cost either 399 kroner or 499 kroner..
49 dollars is aprox 250 kroner atm... cause the dollars is so weak.. so that just suit me perfectly fine=)
They have this great beer here in England, I really love it. Its called Pint.
