Yeah When you send a rider down to get water do you need to do so he gives to the whole team? And where do he get water from?

He will give water to the rest of the team automatically. He gets the water from the back of the peloton - no cars, though. |

So the others who is not in the peloton have to get them self right? And how many times can you do it? Know you cant do it when it is less than 20km left

Yes.
You can do it an unlimited amount of times.
Yes, after passing the 20 km mark, you can't do it anymore. |

So you have a better chance to win the stage on a long breakaway (100 km +) than you had in PCM07 ?? |

Sorry guys, got caught up in the game
I'm on a DELL XPS M1730, 2,2 Dual Core, 2Gigs of Ram, 2x8700M GT in SLI.
Here's my first close sprint finish, It's O'Grady, Steegmans and Napolitano in the tour down under. O'Grady won it by a whisker.

IMO yes, cause your green bar probably wont run out. However, preserving the yellow bar in a breakaway now is difficult. (yellow bar roughly equals the blue bar in 07) |

Hey guys.
Just throwing an update your way. So far, i absolutely LOVE it.
Only bug i've had was starting the Milano-SanRemo the announcer said "They're now rolling onto the Vila Roma" bit early for that... Other than that. Gameplay is great. And learning the new system takes a little effort. Flat/light hills is fairly easy at the moment. I've only played a little bit of mountains but it seems like you have more options now.
The graphics are good. The new training chedule program is great.
The way it works is that you have different variations for each goal.
There are 6 different ways to peak in the tour, all with good form in different parts of the season. So let's say you're Fränk Schleck. Then you'd want to peak for the ardennes classics and the tour. Simple, just select the appropriate program. It actually seems to work like a charm... so far anyways. Have yet to witness the effects of fatigue.
I peaked Cancellera and O'Grady for the cobbles of course. And they were both the 90's for the Milano Sanremo (which i dominated, 1st and 2nd )
Goals are a bit harsh actually.
Top5 - Milano SanRemo
Win - Paris Roubaix
Win - Tour de France
Win - Vuelta Espana
Win - Giro de Lombardia
I can deal with the GT objectives. But the oneday races are always hard to predict.
Anyhoo. Just letting everyone know that it's very enjoyable. And if you aren't playing yet..get!
