I want to control my riders with a joystick.
I want RPG cycling.
I want MMORPG cycling. (with the ability to use a headset)
I want spikes, oil pits (and guns and bombs of course).
I want warp points.
I want to be able to ride cows and wallabies.

I think it would be great, if it was possible to watch some of the races you don't control yourself.
I would love, if I could talk with some of my riders
and if it was posible to play a carere where you only control one rider
it will be nice, if you get interwieved by the press
If the negosiation with the secondary sponsers, included nigosiations about where on the Jersey the loge shoul be, and then increase the payment
If the training can become more realistic, and maybe be able to follow the riders, or something |

In pcm''10 the cobblestone classics has to become more realistic.
ect by having more rides crashing, and braking arms and legs and stuff.
it will also be fun, if there will be added more to the riders stats - like team spirit or technic, maybe? |

I agree there is too little crashes on cobblestones, but i prefer the current system compared to PCM1 where most of the pack crashed on the first cobblesection. leaving 20-30 riders in front for the rest of the race.

I have another suggestion, which I think would be relatively easy to implement.
When creating a custom team, you ought to be able to scout young riders from any nation, or at least all those in your scouting region. Creating a British team, you only get to scout (I think) 4 riders. That's annoying. |

The amount you can scout from your region depends on the budget you choose - the lower the budget, the more you can scout. But I agree that it would be good if you select 2 nationalities for the team, then you can scout from both countries.

One thing they should do is fix the simulation part....it´s a little bit annoying that sometimes loose a race because a guy with 60 AVG win the last stage with 8 min. gap when my riders are 93 form and 77 AVG. and i choose one of them to escape and fight for the win. |

I did know that about the budget - I had ten scout attempts. For some reason the game was malfunctioning that time and would only let me scout British riders. I just tried again and I managed to scout a Swede and two Americans too. So I take back what I said before. |

If your captain is leading the race you need to use the option to "protect yellow jersey" (I don't know how it is called in english). If you only select one rider to escape he might miss the break away and nobody will catch them (because you did not told your riders to do so).
Conclusion: It is your own fault if you loose a race like that, it is NOT a bug in the game. |

-Track cycling season, where you can be manager who picks riders from road cycling to World and Euro champs and other starts.
-In your road cycling season you can pick riders from track cycling as i real life
-You can change from road cycling manager to track
-Track cycling scouting
-Stripes of former world champs and national champs
-accesories like helmets and sleeves (only for one rider not all team) for national champs and world champs
-realistic km and time and x1x2x4 or x8 last 3 km in real motion
-you can change main sponsor, team name and jersey after season like in real life
-more realistic graphs of famous cities and famous climbs or famous cobble sections
-faces of riders
-riders are opening they shirt in warms days or wearing jackets in cold and rainy
-riders going and talking with manager and you can hear it or radio tour
at this moment thats all, but later maybe some more ideas

So many times i have done that and in the end i lost it....i´ve even tried to have 4 in break away and nothing happened.Always choose to defend yellow jersey and to enter on pursuit of escapes. |

Be A Pro mode. 
Or if you could control one rider as you do in track mode.
Or a cheaper price on the game |

-Let your riders disrupt a chase. or "block"
-Incorporate Track / 'Cross into road career
-Different sized riders, both height and build (I think this may be in 09 a bit but hard to tell)
-Riders looking leaner as they get closer to peaking
-Have a "back" button for the career page (The drop down menu is annoying and a stupid fix, I hate clicking on a rider and then not having a quick way to get back to the last screen I was at.)
-Be A Pro Mode
-Team stats (Lead Out for Columbia / Mountain Control for Astana / GT Losing for Silence  / I think you get the gist.)
-Flat TT bars 
-Pedals instead of spindles
-"Mini Careers" where you can pick certain races to play.
-"Lead Out" stat for guys like Renshaw and Sutton
-"Workhorse" type stats so you can relay within the pack with slightly less effort, I know that would be hard to make it exclusive to just while they're with the big pack and not so they could have a stronger relay in breaks etc. but it's a rough idea.
-Better scaled sprints / lead outs.
-Allow for the "Follow" command at any point of the race (It's not like in real life you are only allowed to hold a certain wheel in the last 12k)
-Track mechanics allowing for better breaks and going for a lap in points race
-Track mode allowing you to zoom out and see the whole track so you could know how close to lapping they were.
-Practice races with your career team.
-Possibly make a track like sprint ((Hate getting boxed in (going 4kmh faster than those in front of you but not going around them) because the AI is bad))
-More realistic speeds, particularly in TTs. See riders doing 45k/h the whole time when they average 50+
-Realtime TT clock so you aren't wondering how you'll finish till the end.
-Collaborate with other teams.
That's my list for now anyway, I've been compiling a mental list as long as I've been playing but I forgot most of them (obviously) because I didn't write it down or anything, I'm sure I'll be back with more.

You cannot use to much commands. You ONLY have to defend the jersey. If you also order them to pursuit every escapees your riders might use to much energy to protect the jersey. Also use all riders to protect the jersey, never sent any rider in break away. The most important thing is the fitness and skills of the helpers, they cannot protect the jersey if the have low fitness or skills. Finally, I just don't believe you that you always lose the jersey if you simulate. You can try it easily:
1. Go to the main menu just before the last stage of the race
2. Copy the save
3. Continue your career
4. Set all helpers to protect the jersey
5. Simulate
6. Write down result
7. Go back to main menu
8. Overwrite your save with the copy
9. Redo steps 3 to 9 10 times
Just that you know, PCM is a game, therefore there is a possibility to lose. If you do not want to take the risk of losing by simulating you have to option to lose by playing 3D. |

It would be fun, if it was possible to chose between the usual sprint(with the new suggestions) and a sprint like on the track, where the camera changes, and you control where on the road your rider is, and speed/energi |

Yes, it is the most annoying thing in whole game!
