Well, as I'm sure some of you are aware, I have a brilliant career with Madison going. In March 2015 atm, battling like hell through the worst Paris-Nice variant I have ever seen! Every stage is the same, no decisive stages at all! I've had back to back promotions and am now World Tour somehow (definitely the smallest budget by some way!) Of the original ten riders that Madison have at the start of the game, I have only kept Bibby (obviously ) and Tennant. The team is led by Fenn, Phinney and a Slovenian puncher called Horvat (Talent thread).
This season, the goal is to stay in the WT, should be easy enough with a good classics season. Phinney, Stannard and Haussler on the cobbles and Horvat in the Ardennes. Hopefully Fenn can go well at MSR aswell. As for the GT's, Preidler will lead at the Giro as there are tons of summit finishes, I have a British newgen who is already immense and will lead at the TDF, while Fenn will go for green. The Vuelta will be a bit different with Horvat and Boily joint leaders but we'll probably just be going for stage wins. Phinney is the World ITT champion aswell.
Best results so far this season are a stage win for Haussler Down Under and a win for Fenn at Paris-Nice. Might post a few screenshots of the team later if anyone's interested. Well done if you read this far |

As promised, here's my squad:
Some of the names won't be familiar of course but Horvat, Birtles and Thomas are all going to be absolute gods of cycling in a few years. I have a lot of TT/rouleurs and not as many climbers as I would like but that will hopefully change at the end of the season. |

Awesome squad Brewers. Here's mine, season 2015 with Novo Nordisk, now sponsored by HTC.
Staying at PT is the main-goal. Still, I think is achievable. |

Both great squads.
That MGT team is so awesome! Should have no trouble staying in the WT.
Novo is good, and should probably be pushing for WT, or at least top5 in the PCT

Well, sometimes I love PCM. No sooner do I tell you about my plans for the season, than I get one of the best wins I've ever had on the game.
Yep, that's neo-pro Horvat winning Milan San Remo. The first ever result in his palmares! He literally has nothing else but 1st at Milan San Remo!! Countered Cancellara on the Poggio, then just carried on and won by 25 seconds. Even better, Fenn won the bunch sprint for a 1-2.
Over £50,000 in the bank, and now there's no pressure on the classics team. This guy is already a legend! |

I have question
can I see full stages results from beginning of my season?
in Archives I can see only GC results without timing
is this information avaliable anywhere?
Was the last message on the previous page and nobody answer, so I thought to up his message.
Btw, nice teams of brewers and Miguel . |

@RafaMarcos
You can't see the full stage results from a result of 6 months ago, but there is a 'latest results' tab in career. You can see the full results of up to a month ago.
You can't look back further, at least not if you want the full results(with GC timing too)

Apparently there has been a diabetes-epidemic in the peloton

I am enjoying a save with Omega Pharma QuickStep.
The season started with 4 wins for Cavendish at the STU, before headed to Qatar where we won the ITT and Cavendish took 4 stage wins and the overall, onto Oman where Cavendish yet again took 3 stage wins. Cav's winning streak continued as he somehow won Gent Wevelgem aswell as taking a stage win the Tirreno Adriatico.
Tom Boonen took a stage win in Paris Nice before winning Milan San Remo ahead of Chavanel, then he won E3 before fiishing 2nd at Gent Wevelgem. Boonen won the Tour of Flanders to continue our classics supremecy.
Gianluca Brambilla also finished 2nd in Tirreno Adriatico.
Peter Velits finished 8th overall at the Tour of Catalunya where Peter Serry took a stage win.
Gert Steegmans got in on the winning act as he won Nokere Keorse.

For some reason, I lost the motivation for my Ag2r career and started over with BMC. Tour Down Under ended with 10 podium places including 4 stage wins and a 1-2 overall for Gilbert and Goss. Oh, and the Points and KoM, of course. Not sure if I'll keep this up, but for the moment, it was kinda fun
