1 a transfer season where it's possible to buy riders who still got a contract with another team.
2 more races. It would be much better if there is more races to pick between when you make your calender for the season in the career.
3 The world championship is in the game. What about the olympic games. It would be great to have tthat race in the game. But with variating routes so it isn't only climbers who can win or only sprinters who can win. |

I'm interested in why someones only post in the entire forum is here, but either way:
1) it is possible to buy riders who have a contract with another team. That's the definition of a Transfer. And we've covered "stealing" riders off other teams before, and we're not going back there.
2) there are more races.
3) the olympics do take place. Every 4 seasons strangely enough. |

Some suggestions on swedish riders if you haven´t added them.
Alexander Wetterhall:https://www.cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/rider.asp?riderid=10488 as you may have noticed a good TT´er.
Patrik Moren https://www.cqrank...derid=8312
adn Patrik Stenberg https://cqranking....erid=14314
As I said it´s just suggestions, I saw that you needed more then just name but don´t what more to give then name and theirs results. |

Results out of context mean nothing to me. What type of riders are Moren and Stenberg?

Patrik Moren is more an allrounder who can survive smaller hills and don´t afraid of attacking with a okey sprint.
Patrik Stenberg is an young rider with a good sprint.
And also Jonas Ahlstrand https://www.cqrank...erid=13382 also him good at sprints as Stenberg also potential, but have a hard time in the mountains. |

Andrew Talansky: https://velobios.com/riders.garmin2011...lansky.htm
I figure he has already been added, but just in case
Ian Boswell: https://velobios.com/riders.bissell201...oswell.htm
3rd at the tour of Utah, winner of the Nevada City classic, ahead of Landis.

This might be a late idea to through around but here it goes:
- In those races where the field is really small (ex: Tour of America) why not add some national teams with some FAs to enlarge the number of riders. It might make those races more realistic at some point. On the other hand it'll bring more work and it may make the results more chaotic.
I don't know if someone has already suggested something similar but think it's an idea worth considering.

Can I make a suggestion about the screenshots. Why not saving them all as PNG instead of JPG? Quality will be much better and the file size will be almost the same. All programs accept PNG so it's just as easy to save as JPG.

The file size is doubled, and the quality is the same. Therefore, jpg is preferred |

I just checked, and often it is much more than doubled.
JPGs are a similar enough quality and vastly improve firstly the image upload times, and secondly the race report loading times.
Id prefer it if every reporter in the game used JPGs.

A standard size for screens might be nice - some reports when you click the screen don't load up a bigger picture. Some do. I prefer the bigger ones. |

And don't forget: Every time you use PNG when we deal with such low resolutions as the man game, and indeed the forum, uses, instead of JPG, I need another hour in therapy.

Definately an option to be considered in case of small fields

In my Garmin story I made the best experience with resolutions around 1113x626, what`s nothing else than 58% of 1920x1080.
Then converting the PNG`s to 80% quality JPG`s.
On the screens you don`t even see a difference between 100% and 80% quality but the file size is halfed.
Something around ~110kb/picture. And the converting and working stuff lasts just 2min for for all pictures together with the right programs. |

Please can we have some more Eritreans added to the database? Here are a few:
Natnael Berhane - https://www.cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/...erid=16175
He's an all rounder, a Jalabert sort of rider. He beat Jerome Pineau in a Sprint, to give you an idea of his abilities, and is reckoned to be as good or better than Telekhaymanot.
Daniel Abraham - https://www.cqranking.com/men/asp/gen/...erid=16861
Currently riding for Marco Polo, he's a rider in the mould of someone like Gilbert, with a good hill ability, but not a rider like Boonen who can then win sprints.
