Of course. Another story bites the dust.
For Christ's sake. Do you really expect a full PCM and a full expansion pack the day it's released? End another good story. Fine. I guess it's your decision, but what's the point of a story if after the game year ends so is it. Look at Monster Energy. Did he care about the new game to end it?
Well, you may be right.
I guess it's just part of me that thinks people will get bored of this because 1) Stijn's now 26 so his glory years await and 2) this is an older game. The combination of that might make people bored, I think.
But in the end, I guess I'm gonna have to trust my followers. You're right baseball, I'll try to continue this much longer
I just say wait until PCM 13 is actually a coomplete game before starting to think about stopping this one.
RIP Exxon Duke, David Veilleux, Double Feature, and Monster Energy

baseballlover312 - I see what you mean Though I probably won't download any big database. Just the patches and a realname database.
krisa - Thanks again
Jesleyh - A perfect season so far!
PCM rulezz - The competition will be shitting their pants, I think
Miguel98 - Thanks!
sutty68 - It looked easier than it was, probably That final sprint was a tough one, with Boasson Hagen getting close! |

Kuurne - Bruxelles - Kuurne
Belgian Opening Weekend: Part 2/2.
Stijn: Should end in a mass sprint. Cavendish is here, I don't want to take any risks: we need to lose him before the sprint.
Stijn Van Gent
Once again, we had a team mate in the attack, so BMC controlled the pack. Van Keirsbulck must feel good.
They feared Cavendish as much as I do, since they made quite a pace! I stayed at the front, you never know...
And a complete split as we picked up the breakaway. Both BMC and Schoonbroodt did a lot of work!
And then super Phinney did amazing work!
Three of us broke loose. Phinney, Van Keirsbulck and myself. There were 33 kilometers left to go.
Phinney in second position, me in lead position. He slowed down a bit, I upped the tempo a bit. It was up to Van Keirsbulck to correct the situation! With 25 km to go, I had the lead.
The peloton was coming closer at top speed, but there was no way back for me. All or nothing. A smaller group between me and the peloton came dangerously close, too!
Devolder with an enormous attack in the final kilometers!
But he didn't make it, I made it! A 25 km solo, unbelievable!

2/2 in the Belgian opening weekend. This truly is unbelievable. Maybe I'm dreaming! Oh, no, I'm not David Veilleux, I forgot.
Some reactions to the Belgian opening weekend:
Tom Boonen: I'm afraid this is the year. You know, every sportsman has that cruel year where he realizes it's only downhill from here. I've had a great career and I can look back happy. All I want now is to enjoy every race.
Guillaume Van Keirsbulck: It's so impressive the way Van Gent's riding around. Sprinting, going solo, he can do it all. I can't see anyone stopping him if he keeps this up.
Stijn Van Gent: I'm very happy with my latest results. It seems this jersey is giving me magic legs, my confidence has grown enormously since I've been wearing this around my shoulders. I'm not afraid I'm peaking too early, I have everything under control. In Oudenaarde, I'll be on the front lines!
Edvald Boasson Hagen: A second place and a fifth. I'm feeling pretty good. These really are races that suit me fine. I hope to win a classic this year!
Next up, Paris - Nice. Stay tuned!
Stijn |

I think extreme might be a good idea. Of course maybe it's just Stijn being a boss.

I think Stijn listens to one Queen song during the races: Don't stop me now
