This seems very strange to me. Why are people getting naked for Mardi Gras. I've heard of a lot of Mardi Gras customs, but not stripping.
If you Google it, you get alot of "those" sites show up where you can watch if you really want too.

Well, I just got the schedule through March finalized. I couldn't believe how easy it was to get accepted into a wild card spot. I am guessing its the number of teams? Well here it is:
DATES | RACE NAME | STAGES | COUNTRY | CLASS | January 22 - 27 | Mardi Gras Benefit Race | 6 | | USACL | February 3 - 8 | West Branch Challenge | 6 | | USACL | February 16-17 | Race For Rookies | 2 | | USACL | February 21 - March 2 | Pennsylvania Tour | 10 | | USACL | February 27 | Carolian Challenge | 1 | | USACL | March 3 - March 10 | Hershey Cup | 8 | | USACL | March 6 - 12 | States Race | 7 | | USACL | March 15 | Wooster Open | 1 | | USACL | March 17 | San Francisco - Sacramento | 1 | | USACL | March 22 | North Dakota Race | 1 | | USACL | March 25 - March 28 | NFL Challenge | 4 | | USACL |
I also got a list of how the points schedule will work this year! Team wise that is:
ACHIEVEMENT | POINTS | Stage Win | 2 | Race Win (Only Stage Races, x2 by each stage) | 3 | Winning Points Jersey | 4 | Winning Mountain Jersey | 3 | Best Team In Race | 3 |
Last but not least, here are the PRE-SEASON BEST TEAM RANKINGS:
POSITION | TEAM | POINTS | 1 | Team Target - AT&T Cycling | 0 | 2 | Team Walmart Cycling | 0 | 3 | IBM Diabetes Cycling | 0 | 4 | Specialized Cycling | 0 | 5 | Renfe Cycling | 0 | 6 | BP Cycling Team | 0 | 7 | Team TomTom Cycling | 0 | 8 | Lukoil Cycling | 0 | 9 | Team Discovery Channel | 0 | 10 | Team Dodge - Coke Cycling | 0 | 11 | Team Sunkist | 0 | 12 | Team Crankbrothers | 0 | 13 | T-Mobile Cycling Team | 0 | 14 | Team Craft | 0 | 15 | Citigroup - Cannondale Cycling | 0 | 16 | Hummel Cycling Team | 0 | 17 | Philips Cycling | 0 | 18 | FIAT - Pearl iZumi Cycling | 0 | 19 | Lamborghini Cycling Team | 0 | 20 | Giant Cycling | 0 | 21 | Mobistar Cycling Team | 0 |

Today we had a practice 180km race in Alaska, where they hold a race later in the year. We raced with these teams:
Early in the race the worst team in the league, Mobistar, must have felt like they had something to prove, so they sent out there group to the front.
Sunkist was content riding right in the middle of the main group.
Here is an overhead shot of the race:
The race was pretty much a joke, let me be honest with you. A race this early in the season just proves who was working hard over the winter, and the peleton obviously didn't care what the breakaway did, because it was just like a normal ride. With that being said, 2 riders broke away and stayed away, until I had enough, and I told Tommy Griffin of Sunkist to go.
After Griffin set out, he took about 50km, but he did catch the break, who was now 21 minutes ahead of the peleton.
Towards the end of the race, they pulled away from Griffin, we had not much more rest than the other two had being ahead so long, and they sprinted it out amongst themselves to the end.
Well guess, what when all the mini breakaways settled, the peleton had their chance to sprint to the finish, and Roosevelt Grant showed why he belongs, as he demolished the field in the sprint.
Here are the results, season is starting VERY soon!!!
Spoiler Rank | Name | Team | Time | 1 | Ricardo Robertson | Team Crankbrothers | 4h31'27 | 2 | Steve Fletcher | FIAT - Pearl iZumi Cycling | + 22 | 3 | Tommy Griffin | Team Sunkist | + 4'07 | 4 | Jesse Frazier | FIAT - Pearl iZumi Cycling | + 22'17 | 5 | Adam Casey | Team Sunkist | s.t. | 6 | Otis Pierce | Renfe Cycling | + 22'46 | 7 | Roosevelt Grant | Team Sunkist | + 23'00 | 8 | Ramiro French | Team Sunkist | s.t. | 9 | Jim Wheeler | Lukoil Cycling | s.t. | 10 | Terrence McLaughlin | Team Sunkist | s.t. | 11 | Francis Sanchez | Renfe Cycling | s.t. | 12 | Tony Hoffman | Team Crankbrothers | s.t. | 13 | Benny Underwood | Team Crankbrothers | s.t. | 14 | Ernie Hubbard | Mobistar Cycling Team | s.t. | 15 | Paul Alfonso | Team Crankbrothers | s.t. | 16 | Lonnie Nichole | Team Crankbrothers | s.t. | 17 | Peter Erdun | Mobistar Cycling Team | s.t. | 18 | David Fowler | Team Crankbrothers | s.t. | 19 | Tracy Grant | Lukoil Cycling | s.t. | 20 | Jonathan Segers | FIAT - Pearl iZumi Cycling | s.t. | 21 | Patrick Clausen | Mobistar Cycling Team | s.t. |
That is just the top 21.
In all seriousness, was this just a flaw finish, or is their something wrong with the game, or is it just my database? The breakaway gained ground every single second during the race

There is a breakaway bug in the game. And a small peloton like that doesn't make it better, but much worse |

Well everything is ready for this to start!
I am going to have to postpone this though because the breakaways are winning to easily, that problem will have to be addressed!

Me too because I wanted to kick things off tomorrow, but now I have to hope that the bug gets fixed! I did 3 stages so far on single mode and each time the break wins by 20+ minutes no matter what the database or the size of the peleton/break.

Make sure Passive AI is turned off, and that you don't play on Easy.

HEY GUYS! FIRST RACE COMING
Hey guys, our bus just pulled in to New Orleans, I am BEYOND excited to finally get this season underway. I do have a bit of shame news though.. Roosevelt Grant, our best guy, will be sitting out the season opener will the flu. He just came down with it 2 days ago, and is not quite ready for this race.
The place is beautiful, the parties are in full swing, this is supposedly one of the Top 5 races of the year!! All the teams are here for the season opener, but we don't know if they brought there best, but we are pretty sure they did.
Anyway, I gotta check my email soon for the race route and map, so I will definitely post that tomorrow! We are here to celebrate the season opener for a few days before we kick off the cycling! 3 months ago I never would have seen myself in this position, but now that I am here, I couldn't be more excited!
See you guys tomorrow!
