Big thanks to jdog for making this AMAZING userbar!
@547984, yep. The pace is just so high in Taiwan on the flat, and with the crosswinds, we're just not strong enough.
@mvhoogdalem, how can I be racist when Bekele is white?! The main reason he didn't get a point is that he has only just been given one and I had to scale the points down as I said. He was close to getting one though.
@knockout and ryant, thanks. Oh the hills in Stresa....
@Jesleyh, why Handzame? Because of the thrilling route?!
BTW, as you can probably tell from the thread heading, some people will be getting kicked out today but I'll tell you more later on. If you want to become part of this story, stay on the forum this evening .

Well, Ntanga's jersey, isn't that obvious?
But I was a bit confused there, I meant the race before that with the impossible name Edited by Jesleyh on 02-09-2013 16:19
Well done Bekele and Yamada! Good rides from both, shame they couldn't get 1st and Top 3 respectively but think both had good results.
Congratulations to Varga as well, another fine victory. With Kelly adding to the team's continued impressive form.
I do fear we may end up with some unhappy riders, it seems to be the same old names getting the wins and the lead out's...although of course I am sure our DS will ensure their time will come
Oh and also well done to Rodriguez and Kamano showing their talent with 2nd and 3rd in young riders.
I know what stats I shall be improving next time! Flat's killed me..that's embarrassing...clearly I have never seen a flat piece of road before taking up pro cycling lol!
So....1 Flat please Brewer!

Firstly, to owen10ozzy, thanks. +1 FL for Meek's next race. And I know what you mean about the same riders always getting preference. I don't try to do it and I'm certainly not biased, but it's usually the same riders who have the best chance of winning, so I have to go with them. But as you say, the idea is that everyone will get a chance somewhere. It's still only March .
Secondly, regarding the inactive members. As unlikely as it is (let's face it, if they were here they would have said something by now!) AndySchleck, bajbar, emre99 and francopell have 1 hour to say something or their riders, Ivanov, Rakovec, Goudelock and Gochnauer are gone. This means there will be four slots opening up. There are two other inactive members, mresuperstar and Spilak23, who are Smith and Cassidy respectively, but I want to keep them both as domestiques. Obviously, I will just take control of their points unless they start following in which case they can have their riders back. Mujagic is the same, as admirschleck is not on the forum at the moment.

Would it be a brand new rider, or would we take over one of the inactive member's riders?
Let The Hoyle join, the more the merrier!
Also the team seem to be dwarfing the other continental teams, I lost track of the number of wins a long time ago! Anyone know how many stages the team has won?

thanks rider
I noticed that with the high number of wins? Plan to increase the difficulty now that the WT bug has struck?
I'm here, its just I really have no reason to comment because Smith doesn't do much being so average. I thought that would have been appearant since it got a story of the month nomination.
