Thank you all for the comments! And glad you like Ten Dam's arrival Actually, he's one of my favourites, especially because of fotos like that, cunego59 I was quite surprised that he was still available, but he needs to ride for a better team than his current one (TT1)..
@LilParka: Nice to see a new (?) reader here! Duarte's fitness is quite good after the Vuelta (85, I think), so this may be a small advantage here!
I will post the report soon! (Means: Most probably at football's half-time..)

Great way to end your season! Too bad Ricco was in front of Duarte but he will be testing positive and the victory will be given to you for sure. You will have to wait a year though.

@all: Thank you very much! It was indeed a great 2nd for Duarte. Dark Dog isn't a classics-team, but this race was pretty awesome Thank you all for following, commenting and contributing! This kept my motivation for 3 seasons now!
@laidbackmarc: Or maybe Ricco will go into hospital in off-season
@FreitasPCM: Top-4... hmmm.. maybe all of them got caught/banned irl? Or at least, got tested positive (as far as I know, Duarte was, right)? Anyway, as the DS of Team Dark Dog I have to say: "Fabio is clean!"
I will now post some results, summaries, rankings of the season 2012! First: October-results:

Thanks, cunego59! Yeah, Bobridge had a great season with the Academy. He had a couple of timetrial-wins and also some overall win thanks to that stage-wins!

Good job keeping Dark Dog in the Pro Tour! With the new signings, it won't be difficult to do the same in 2013.
Too bad Euskaltel got relegated, I think it'll be very difficult for them to promote again. And Topsport Vlaanderen always does great in collecting many points in races in Holland, belgium and France. I like that team (just as Landbouwkrediet), with some good riders.

Cant wait for the new season now... I really want to see what you did for the merger between Omega Pharma and Quicksep. And are you also making team Lotto-Ridley?

Thank you, guys!
@dienblad: Yeah, I guess 2013 will be easier for Dark Dog We won't only focus on the GT's like we did this year.
Euskatel relegating is definitely a shame, especially as it was so close in the end. If Antón hadn't failed in Vuelta, they would have overtake Farnese in final rankings.. Topsport is quite a surprise, but it's a nice team, just like you said!
@miggi133: Thanks! I'm still not sure which team will replace Omega Pharma in 2013 Lotto is an option, yes, but as Topsport made it into World Tour, there may be also a chance for another countrie's team
Here's a short overview of most important results in 2012. Stay tuned for a final summary of Dark Dog's best results this season!
