Okay I'd like to make a last addition to the calendar: An WT individual time trial. I haven't decided on where it will be so I'm listening to your suggestions on that. You can basically pick a TT out of any race and post it here to be considered. |

I'd go for the Monterrey TTT route from the Man Game:
https://pcmdaily.c...d_id=32945
Has checkpoints and the hilly terrain could through up some surprises.
Bikex - I'd rather we start season 2 than wait for the likes of the Congo NC, which probably won't even turn up in a screenshot. I respect your attention to detail, but personally I don't really see the point if it means off-seasons last longer than actual seasons do. |

Like the idea of a WT TT, Monterrey seems fun.

SOme nice jerseys there Joe. You are missing Congo though for Velosure.
Other than that I still need Estonian and Danish NC of Fiskars + Danish NC of Air Baltic (I don't think I'll get this one) + maybe Czech and French jersey of Eurosport
All the others can be handled by me.
Sorry to say my graphics skills are non-existent so Czech and Netherlands NC jerseys for Eurosport will have to be the default ones.

Why should one get more points for winning the Tour compared to Giro/Vuelta?

Can someone please link me to a non TTT version of the Monterrey TT?

That's for sure not the reason why we didn't get to racing so far.

Because it is the Tour and is the pinnacle of the sport, need more reason be given?

I'm sorry to tell you that the start of the next season will be further delayed as I have a very stressful time at the moment, with uni exams coming up and no internet during the week as I just moved in my new appartment.
I think in the next off season I'll need someone to help me with some stuff so we can process quicker.
For now I need your ideas on how the GT routes should look like. Please post your ideas in this thread so we can pick a variant until next Sunday.
My plan at the moment is: Race Profiles will be posted until next Saturday/Sunday along with a race selections file
You get until the Saturday after to finish that file and send it back so that on that Sunday you can start with your race planners, for which you will get another week. Then the racing will start on the weekend after, which is February 7th/8th. |

Most importantly I'd like a TT-mountain-balanced Tour. Vuelta will be featuring many mountains I suppose, because that's how it looks every year IRL. And for the Giro I'd maybe like some chances for guys strong on the hills as I feel puncheurs are always kinda underrepresented in GTs.

I prefer mountain heavy GT's but that's should be obvious looking at my team

I'd prefer it if you could mix up the variants a bit and select different stages from various variants again this year. That was pretty nice last time. But of course it's also ok if you just take a complete variant too.
I thought both Giro and especially Tour were pretty balanced and offered a nice mix of flat, hill, TT & mountaineous stages in some good amount, whilst Vuelta was the race for the punchy stages (Purito 7 stage wins, f yeah!). It's ok if it stays that way, but you can of course mix up a bit too. For example, Tour is more mountaineous and almost Vuelta-esque this year than the Vuelta itself.
With the reemergence and stronger focus on so many flat races and classics, I prefer it if not too many flat stages are included. I'm biased in that but I liked the ICL GTs last year very much due to each of them being a bit of a great, giant variant for tough riders. More than ~5 to max. 6-7 flat stages sorta diminshes that impact for me.
As for particular wishes, I do not really have (m)any. I don't need to see any
cobblestones this year, though I don't mind if they re-appear again. There are some great stages with cbs available, so they surely won't be a waste if they are included, especially in Tour variants. At least one TTT would be nice again, but it doesn't need to be in the Tour. No CBS-TTT please. A Tour mix with some rather not so legendary climbs would be kinda cool but since we don't get too see any of the race anyway, it won't matter that much anyway. If you could get stage 16 of this year's Vuelta that would be a blast but I guess PCM13 stage makers won't do that.
@Silvio: Tour last season had 2 TTs, a Prologue and Team Time Trial. It was really TT-MT balanced to begin with. If anything, I'd like to less TT in Tour - for obvious reasons 
Nice Lombardia variant btw.

I updated the rankings file and if there are no mistakes I think it'll look like this: https://www.mediafire.com/?x9y920xry2...0xry2ru72z
Please check it and tell me if it's allright. |
