Deiá - Lluc


Our sponsor has been more than imaginative about this stage, the goal is a top 5, but with the best riders in the world as competitors, it will be impossible to complete. Nevertheless we urge you to believe that we're doing everything we can in order to get the best result out of this

A Top five in that stage was always going to be a Big ask Frown

Hello sgdanny.

To start, you did what you could, don´t be desperate, results will come

Now a suggestion.

Maybe, to improve the visión, you could put your riders in bold in the exported results as sutty68 does with Novo´s career.

Bye!

Unlucky, but a good try on that type of stage. Now back to Arndt in the sprints Smile

@MARS: Do you give 'tips' to everything you comment on? I've seen you 'now a suggestion' bits in sutty's story, on trvalezmateny's jersey thread and now here! Here is my suggestion - let people do things their own way!

@Hoyle : Yeah I couldn't be more satisfied with the team after this
@Mars : I'm cool like ice Wink I pleased with the team Wink Thanks for tip, may include it Wink
@Both : Just don't start a discussion here, it's fine and in the end I can use feedback, but it's myself that choose how Smile

Volta ao Algarve


www.procyclingstats.com/races/logos/2014-01/thumb/Volta-ao-Algarve.jpg


Welcome to Algarve, Portugal


This is the best place in Portugal to race and what better for our team to get some good early traditions going on? Würth have given us some extra cash in order to make this possible, as we don't want morale to drop after taking several bonuses away from the riders, we've been given some money for better hotels and such


I do have a lot of expectations for this race and I hope that my personal goal of achieving the KoM jersey is well in hand and the most important thing is TV Time and that we'll do our best here in Portugal

Another strong squad in Portugal. Arndt should be in some good form after Mallorca

Let's see what the guys can do in Portugal! Hopefully Arndt and Pop can get some stage wins!
 
sgdanny
@jihardy : Welcome back btw Smile Also you made me double check and turns out my sponsor got a 3 star Stage win goal :3

@Hoyle : Yeah, I think that around 10 riders are in proper racing form, so the choices were easy Smile

@all : Last stage of Mallorca will be out tomorrow around noon, and then Algarve starts the day after tomorrow Wink I'll expect to post 1 stage each day around 6 pm+ Smile

Alcúdia - Playa de Muro


Today is a trigging stage to predict, the climbs in the middle of stage might wipe all the Sprinters out of existence and positioning and good legs are required all day and that will decide whether Arndt does this right or wrong. The big stars are the favorites, but those who lost time yesterday will do sneaky attempts to avoid losing more

The break still have a lot of time. so Buts decides to attack, but fails


i.imgur.com/Me4rSH5.jpg

The Break holds just barely and Eros Cappechi wins the sprint and the stage! Buts, Popovych, Thurau and Rutkiewicz is the only riders left in the pack from our team

i.imgur.com/s8cqnFg.jpg

Arndt was caught behind a slow set of riders on the last climb and he could definitely have done something on this stage

A Good effort from Vitaliy Buts to grab a top ten on the GC Smile and nice to see Rutkiewicz bring home the Mountains jersey Smile

Good job Rutkiewicz Grin
Too bad for Buts and Thurau, though, so close to top 10 Wink
