How many riders are presumably still up for grabs after Round1 has finished?
(Belgian teams not bidding for Boonen must be the epic fail of ICL already )
Bids were made on 454 different riders.. But I can't tell on who exactly.
I made an excel sheet with which the rebidding should be easier than now, those of who already got a PM I will send you another one without the [code]
Download here: https://www.mediafire.com/?6zl3k779bz...779bzwn1ys
Just past the table I send you into the red box. Also put your budget left into the cell it belongs into. Also readd your talent focus and research!
You can also do the bidding without that file though.

Really nice indeed to see the different approaches.. Some teames (like me) really focused on their leaders and will be struggling for strong domestiques, while other ones have incredible depth in team, but somehow lack a real leader.
Looking forward to Round 2 already (where I somehow need to get about 20 riders...)

My Swiss CT team is coming together nicely, Matthias Frank is our leader for minimum wage. Tschopp and Morabito. 10 riders in total. |

You really need a lot of cheap riders now, definitely.
I'm sorry, but one of the cheapest riders(Muhammed Muhammed) is already at Shell

So all the PMs are out, if you haven't got one I forgot so Pm me then. This was the most annoying job so far for me, sending everyone a PM.
The deadline is 36 hours from now. I believe it's possible to get everything back within 24 hours, but those 12 hours more should give you enough time.
If you don't meet the deadline, for every four hours you don't send in the file you loose the chance to get the top wage rider on the list I sent you. |

It's mandatory to make a bid, you can just make the minimum bid. |

DAMN missed out on Nibali, was only a really tiny amount away from the 80% cutoff
The two teams (whoever you are, I haven't really kept track of who's what team at the moment) who have Nibali and Froome, and Contador and Rodriguez, seriously???

@ Bikex -- For round 1 part 2 that is a very lenient deadline considering you just have to make a few adjustments.
I am happy to have signed a Belgian/ French NC for my team, will have a go at making some NCs. |

Nibali, Froome => Silvio Herklotz
Rodriguez, Contador => Shonak

I know, but I think it would be to hard for some if I made the deadline earlier. |

And I didn't even had to take a extra loan to sign them both. Quite cheap compared to other riders.
I'm actually very pleased so far. Great leaders, some A-grade lieutnants and some good domestiques. A bit unfortunate with the WT calendar though, there could be some more stage races.

I'm happy
got my team leader: Kiserlovski
got my favorite rider: L.L. Sánchez
got one of my favorites riders: Valls
got some NC from my sponsor regions: Kiserlovski, Zoidl, Lovassy and Kvasina.
only two riders are out of reach: Kwiatkowski (don't really care to be honest) and Kelderman (my incredibly high bid of 340 wasn't enough)
so yeah, a good day

Lucky you
Of course lots depends on how Round 1.2 goes, but at the moment it seems like I'm going to be one of those jack-of-all-trades, leaderless teams
Climbing domestiques: Cataldo, Caruso, Brambilla. Check
Puncheurs: no specialists but 4 at 75 hill
Time-triallists: Malori. Check
Sprinters: Guardini. Check
Leadouts: Trentin. Check
Cobbles: Paolini, Pozzato. Check
Fighters: Pirazzi. Check
Talents: Konrad, Wackermann, Rosa. Check
Out-and-out Leaders: umm...

Not happy with my team so far:
Main guys: Evans, Goss, Matthews Gerrans.
However I'm hopeful with these 1.2 bids.

I just checked the validity of first round bids. The two East European teams made some bids under the Min wage. This results in Luka Pibernik, Jan Hirt and Petr Vakoc going back to free agency and Jan Polanc goes to Allianz - BMW without having to make a second bid. |
