Chavanel withdrew earlier? Hmm... missed that. Shame, could've done nice on Champs.
It was a nice story thingy The Rider, thanks! I learned my lesson, won't choose Rujano anymore 
because the KOM jersey is useless?
Well, okay, can say I'm happy with the KoM jersey. Very happy. But he disappointed me on the GC. And not just by a bit
Also, Rujano tends to use strange masks which scare me

My sprinters were like "oh, so this is the Champs-Élysées! It's so beautiful! Oh wow, look there, it's the Arc de Triomphe!"
D.S.: "GUYS! COME ON! PAY ATTENTION! THE SPRINT IS STARTING!!!
...nevermind."

Now a serious reply: Great victory for Spilak, he totally deserved it!
David Blanco did very well, not only helping Spilak, but also finishing 20th himself.
I had hoped Kenny could have gone for white. He came very close, but 1 stage cost him too much. He did win a great stage.
Tomas Vaitkus really let me down, didnt do anything but leading the pack, while he should have gone sprinting.
Klaas Lodewyck did sprint, but a few podiums would have been nice.
Ignatas Konovalovas did his duty: working.
Fabio Aru: Everyone had high expspectations of him for white. However, Kenny was ahead of him in the hierarchy. He did a great job for Spilak nonetheless.
Thomas Peterson: Quite invisible, stil worked well for Simon.
Oliver Zaugg: He obviously worked for Spilak as well, but we have also seen him doing well attacking.
Overall: 1 stage win, the final GC, 3rd in -25, 2nd in Team Classification. Nokia-Ekspla had a brilliant tour

Congratulations to Quilmes and Kentaurus, who win the inaugural Tour of the Chosen.
He picked a team capable of finishing highly on all terrain, which lead to a huge margin of victory.
For possible future tours, from this tour people should have a good understanding of which riders will score big points and consistently finish well.

Possible future tours might be with other rules, no?
(Other AVG, maybe Age limit etc.)
Otherwise, it might become a little bit too predictable 
And 8th isn't that bad.

Great race, thanks Rider!
Happy with how my team did overall, not happy with the sprinter, my team was built around that, and couldn't win a sprint. But they made up for it, 5th in the GC was always near the top in the TTs and really did well in the mountains.

Nice top 10 from Bazayev on the champs 
Also 9th on the Ultra Classification is pretty good, considering my riders were on the tarmac more often than riding their bikes
Would be interested in future tours |

Yeah I would be foolish not to have at least one more, now that everyone has a better understanding and knows what type of riders to pick.
You would definitely be one of the first guys I hope would join, as your comments are numerous/ hilarious.
@TMR ----yep to leave with a jersey is brilliant!, you probably have the singular rider which contributed must points to the Ultra classification.
@All---thanks for comments
@IanButler et al------Can everyone leave Coca Cola Lime alone...... |

You are richer for the experience.
@Jesleyh----Ofcourse. Any recommendations for future rules/stipulations?
I was thinking putting together 21 stages from Asia (Qatari/Chinese stages) mainly sprinter stages , and having a stipulation where riders have to be over 30 or something (to be different)....we could call it NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN? (ironic)
Please suggest more ideas if you have any. |

Restrictions did someone say? My kind of teritory!
Simple ones:
100% Nation based teams
Max Stat 70
Max AVG 69
Max Age 21
Min Age 30
More Complex ones:
1 xMO rider per team for a GT
50% Nation based + only 1 rider per continent after that
1 xSP rider per team
Total team AVG below x
Total team points below x
Average age over x
Average age below x
Region specific entire races
Really evil way to mess things up:
Slight adjustment of the final draft round from the UCPCL (hey look, evil and an advert) i.e. stealing another teams rider
I'm full of ideas as i had to come up with a few for the UCPCL draft (there it is again) and for the up coming Tour Series in the UCPCPL (third times a charm).
And if you need a route i'm happy to offer up my Grand Tour of Central Europe (albeit most of it currently is without graphics, but the roads and sprints are good)
