Thanks mate  .. please don´t get me wrong but i must rectify you.. Selwink said "one of" the best and i agree with him... there are some great shots and that one belongs to them..  I like this one too but i prefer the other.
Enought with this, lets talk about business 
Atapuma finished 2nd last year and he´s in great position to at least repeat that result again... 2nd, 3rd and 4th GC placed riders have similar TT attributes, so expect a big fight for those spots..
Meanwhile, we raced Dwars door Vlaanderen...
The race is going under awfull conditions...
35kms to go, Argos Shimano leads the pack, 9 riders are escaped with almost 2´00"gap, might not be much but with such weather conditions, they can get it until the end..
The rain continued to fall, tunders iluminated the sky,  F.Cancellara attacked...
.. and dominates the race and the storm...
Our Brasilian talent finishes 31th, the best position ever for Jamis here.. he even got personal escort..

Too bad you lost out on the podium eventually. But it's still a decent result overall!
Also nice to see you are still "modding" your graphics with the thunder&lightning in the Dwaars  The race should have been cancelled with weather conditions like that though

*tsmoha - yeah, after i really checked the riders TT attributes, Atapuma is the weakest with 63, so he didn´t so bad. Thanks mate, glad you like the thunders.. .. well, race directors thought about it...
*sutty68 - Thanks mate, it wasn´t bad. Nice that you like the screens, thanks.
*kadtagenero - The God of thunder..
Stage 6 / Last Stage
 B.J.Maynes goes with the break, just in case.. no rider here has kom points, this means Maynes can already celebrate..
We tried to put some pressure on the race, NetApp protected race leader with all their men..
.. our effort payed out some how... J.Barta 8th GC and  J.Mendes 9th GC get droped from our group with one climb to go..
We were riding strong when our group reached last climb, so i thought this attack from D.Caruso 4th GC and E.Chaces 2nd GC would go empty handed but that wouldn´t be the case..
The breakaway brings it until the end... A.Palini wins..
B.J.Maynes is getting old but still manages to win something..

And nice to see Jacques-Maynes bring home the Mountains jersey |

Thanks sutty .. we tried but that TT spoiled our chances..
 Circuit Sarthe - Pays de la Loire
Stage 1
Awfull weather today, the peloton might get wet...
The breakaway was caught with 10kms to go, now the riders get ready for the final sprint...
Argos main sprinter J.Degenkolb takes the lead..
.. and wins 1st stage..  J.J.Haedo makes 3rd.
Stage 2
Some tried to get away but the pack wasn´t in the mood..
It comes to a mass sprint finish..
J.Degenkolb wins again.. Haedo is 11th.

Thanks Faillu & sutty68 ... i agree at one point... Jamis has TTs, we need stage racers, it´s something we are working on with U23 and at the end of the season we might sign 1 or 2..
Stage 4
J.J.Haedo was in the break for some "green" points...
27kms to go, some riders join the break with the pack fighting hard to bring them back..
With all caught, it´s a bunch sprint for the win..
We tried to crack race leader but he managed to stick around..
T.Damuseau takes the win..

Thanks sutty & Faillu..
Paris - Camembert
Breakaway of the day, S.Henao is our bet for today..
54kms to go, peloton reduces the gap to 2´51"..
We reach the last 5kms with Y.Offredo leading after a late attack... many others do the same but Jamis riders completly missed all the action..
Y.Offredo wins but there is one rider from us who closes top10.. it´s S.Henao who survived from the break and finishes with an excellent 10th place..

Well season start is being hard for Jamis, but once our riders are in good shape we'll start winning!

Thanks kadtagenero for your support..
Yeah, season isn´t starting the way we wanted but lets not forgett this is another league, maybe Jamis didn´t roosted themselves as they should... 
Last year´s winner J.Acevedo will not be here, instead we bring J.D.Atapuma as captain..
Wearing our new jersey for American races, S.Henao attacks at the 1st climb..
14kms to go, J.D.Atapuma attacks, surprising all in peloton... Henao is 3´35" ahead..
With 8kms to go, Atapuma sees L.Craddock and  B.Huzarski attacking and decides to step on the gas..
Last km, Atapuma catch up with Henao..
Atapuma seems to accelerate... will he take the win way from Henao???
Spoiler  No he doesn´t.. S.Henao takes the win, his 1st professional win...

Special THANKS to Maximka for the jersey(s)
