First of all, I'd like to thank you all very much once more! I couldn't have done this without you!
Let's start with the answers!
Question n°1
Stijn Van Gent is a true Flandrien. 2016 was the year when he first won the Ronde Van Vlaanderen. How many Ronde Van Vlaanderen victories did Stijn Van Gent have when he retired?
Stijn won a stunning amount of 5 Rondes Van Vlaanderen. He is still sole record holder!
Question n°2
Stijn Van Gent was a multi-talented rider. In 2017 he entered the Amstel Gold Race and finished 6th. In 2019, he got his highest result ever in the Amstel Gold Race, which was that?
In 2019, Stijn Van Gent finished 2nd in the Amstel Gold Race, after winner Boasson Hagen.
Question n°3
Willy Wouters is not the greatest GT contender ever, but he's solid and talented. During his career, he slowly developed a love/hate relationship with Italy. When did he finally win his first Giro d'Italia?
Willy won his first Giro in 2018. After that, he stranded on the 2nd place three times, and two more times on the third place.
Question n°4
Willy Wouters started his career with an early World Championship Title in Time Trialing. He reclaimed that title one more time, in what year was that?
Willy reclaimed his title as oldest World Champion ever, in 2028. The following year, he won the prologue of the Tour in this jersey and kept the yellow jersey for 12 days.
Question n°5
The friendship between Stijn Van Gent and Willy Wouters is famous and forever in the history books. However, they didn't spend their entire career in the same team. In what year did the two part and both went to separate teams?
At the end of season 2017, both went separate ways. Two years later, they rejoined each other at Team BMC.
Question n°6
Stijn Van Gent is a Belgian household name, almost as big as Merckx. In 2015 he became World Champion. How many World Champion titles did he won in total?
As few other legends, Stijn conquered 3 World Titles.
Question n°7
Stijn Van Gent has many records to his name. In 2022 he added another record to his list of achievements: winner of the fastest Paris - Roubaix ever. (46.256 km/h) This was also his final Paris - Roubaix victory. How many did he win in total?
In many attempts, Stijn won Paris - Roubaix a total of 3 times!
Question n°8
Willy Wouters loves cycling, that's for sure. Taking after his example Voigt, he had a long career. At what age did Wouters finally retire?
Willy retired only at the age of 43, as one of the most loved cyclist in the peloton, embraced by friend and foe.
Question n°9
Willy Wouters slowly developed a talent for Classics. Unfortunately he never won Milan - San Remo, but how many Monuments did he win?
Unfortunately, Willy never managed to win a Monument. He won some classics (San Sebastian and Flèche Wallonne), but his best result in Liège is 3rd and in Lombardia is 6th.
Question n°10
Stijn Van Gent and Willy Wouters have scored an amazing amount of National Titles. Only once, however, have they both conquered a National Title in the same year: Willy in the time trial, Stijn on the road. In what year was that?
In 2021, Stijn was national champion on the road while Willy was national champion in time trialing.
BONUS QUESTION (only in the event of a draw, doesn't count for the first ranking)
How many official victories did Stijn Van Gent have when he retired?
Stijn Van Gent won 132 races in his career. He retired at the early age of 31, having had a lightning career.
The award for the worst/highest score (39) goes to...
Spoiler Daggen!
Daggen had a decent quiz but managed to totally destroy his score by guessing 14 monuments. He has the prestige of having the worst score: 39, congratulations!
The award for the most correct answers (4) goes to...
Spoiler JuanMotr!
Both JuanMotr and NTTHRASH had 4 correct answers, but JuanMotr was only 5 wins off in the bonus question, while NTTHRASH was off with 18.
Then we are ready for the main prizes.
Bronze, with a score of 26, goes to...
Spoiler NTTHRASH!
Both him and baseballlover312 had a score of 26, but bronze was won with the bonus question!
Silver, equaling a score of 24, goes to...
Spoiler Jakstar22!
Getting the first three answers correct, there was little to spoil his great score.
And the Winner of this Special Reader's Competition, scoring an all-low with 21, is...
Spoiler MAXIME86!!!
Maxime86 barely made mistakes. He was the first contestant and kept the lead all the way to the end. Congratulations!
Well done to all contestants and thank you for entering,
Ian |

Why did Stijn retire at 31? And how did you make up these numbers? And how does Maxime know the stats?

I can't thank all of you enough  It's been an amazing journey, this story. I'm glad I can end it in this fashion.

Maxime won the award so he received the prize: the database
Stijn retired at 31 because he burned out fast. Willy had a more spread-out career. Stijn is like the old generations, like Merckx. Burn hard, burn fast.

Oh I forgot to say something 
What about downloading the Daily DB for PCM 13 when it comes out? Then we won't have Sforza and all that; and loads of variants instead of having the same ones (eg the 2012 Tour route was the route for 2014/5 iirc)
Well, I would, but my computer can't handle downloading something that size. I've tried it before and it resulted in crashes. So I'm sorry. But I will try to change names of sponsors and maybe jerseys during the next story. I will also implement more variants myself. |

Maxime or Ian, can you PM me the stats? I won't tell them
Edit: I didn't join the contest, but wasn't it just to look at the first post?

What he can do is that he'll start it when a realname db is out and then change the variant sponsor with the real sponsors after downloading pcmdaily's expansion pack. The only thing is that he don't finish the first year in those weeks.

Where did you come up with the answers for the quiz? Obviously you didn't play it, as you just finished 2016. And I am now going to have to hack you to get the db? Well, I guess we have to do this the hard way.
