We might as well save time from reports and just have a random draw for each country. That way the person with the most riders from a specific country has the best chance and it's not just the AI who decides.

Interested to see the 'standardised' courses when races start to emerge. Would be nice to pick up a jersey or too, but don't want to create too much work for the intrepid aidanvn13 on jersey updates - h's a busy enough chap as it is! .

I get the feeling that I'll just get the Belgium TT again (it helps to have most of the field in your team). I'm pissed off the Belgium RR isn't on cobbles though.

Hopes:
-Arredondo, Infantino or Parra Bustamante to win COL from the breakaway.
-Ruben Fernandez or Duenas or Orbe to take ESP from the breakaway.
-Moinard to surprise win in FRA after a mid stage breakaway.
-CYP to be won by Adamou cause he is awesome.
-Menchov to outdo the sprinters in RUS.
-Sabido to pull one out of the bag to take a miraculous win in Portugal.

Cool to see last races with PCM13 coming soon, i am ready for the break fest.
Our east european attacking spirit riders could snatch some jerseys, after Stefan Petrovski being already crowned the double champ of Macedonia.
Ignatiev will have a very hard time against Tinkoff in Russia, should be one of their or others breakaway riders. In TT, it should be nice battle.
In Ukraine, i am looking for a revenge against Privatbank, but if we are not the winners, i hope it is them.

So, here we go. Hoping to take the RR in Ireland, will need a break for that even whilst having the biggest team there.
TT is for Downey if he's in, and possibly Mullen if not. In GB, I'll have a fairly well rounded team - could a surprise victory be on the cards? Probably not. But still not giving up hope just yet. Depending on the course, Mendes could win in Portugal. No hopes for Drapac - if it's a sprint, he's up against the world chsmpion. If it isn't, he'll be dropped after 10km. Beyond them, breakaways from Hamilton, Sobal and Gudsell would be nice.

May I ask to post Germany, Espana, Netherlands, Italy and Belgium first?
Winners then:
GER: Krieger/Schädlich
NED: Boom/Keizer
ESP: LLS/LLS
ITA: Nizzolo/...
BEL: Vanmarcke/...
If you don`t mind Grand for Suisse and Edmondson for Australia.
Thanks |

It's noted, roturn
Thought we could kick off the action early today: whoever requests a random (small) NC, which I have played, will be the lucky one to have one of his target NCs being online as the first! Good luck with your pick(s)

Swiss.
Won`t stand a chance there but should be an interesting one with a mountain profile.

I didn't check the list of those you've taken as that would be cheating. So I hope you've done Costa Rica! I want to request a nice jersey for Brenes

Except of Switzerland, there's no NC I've done so far! Won't start with SUI though, since it's one of the mid-sized fields. But maybe later today

And I did odds for Russia, so back off
Erm, how about Japan for another great Meiji vs Meiji race? |
