Stannard is the new Swift. Absolutely useless. So I guess that means Sutty will sign him at the end of the season.

Also last stage posted.
My team's results:
Spoiler It was the best race of the season for us so far with 2 stage wins and 3rd place in GC as well as many other decent stuff. A shame all of this happened in a CT.2 race... Cataldo basically is a complete mess in WT but fucking world beater in CT... Should have known before meh

We are so high in those cobble rankings we are getting dizzy. And I thought if we sell Gilb. we can make our cobble team 'better'. Turns out he is the key!
Well he does it again. Gilb. really takes these hilly cobble races like a duck to water: this time on a traditional breakaway classic.
Very excited for the Giro, Bikex, very fitting to see some of the Italian teams getting some stage wins on the brink. |

My guys did pretty well in Romandie. 1 Stage win + several top tens and a top 8 in GC |

LBL: You're supposed to be in the first group when the action happens, Kwiatkowski  That way, it's only 13th.
Rankings: We even gained one spot in the WT rankings though I'm raging all the time. Maybe I'll have to come down a bit and just hope we survive in that position - doesn't look so bad after all.
UNICEF DT is in third, which is pretty nice on a side note.
May Preview: Porte isn't really among the top favourites in the Giro, that's why our goal is Top 5. He's our only leader, so it's supporting him and breakaways for the other guys.
Copenhagen-Malmö ITT will be a funny battle between Fiskars and us.
Finanzplatz U23: I really don't get why our U23 sprinters can't win those flat classics - now Ackermann finishs in 10th 
Lincoln GP: Just again, both Devenyns (11th) and Pibernik (31st) beat our designated leader Vandenbergh (71st!) - Now flatten those cobbles profiles

Moving back up to 2nd in the CT Rankings is way above expectations to be honest. I expected a lower half placement. How many teams will promote?

It's all in the first post of the rankings thread, sotd
Depending on the WT rankings, the worst 3 world tour teams will relegate. The best CT teams in the prestige ranking will fill those spots in the coming season.

Gilbert having an awesome season!
LBL nowhere near as good as AGR for us and Lincoln a wash out as expected.
Hung on to our 12th spot in the WT rankings, is it possible we could still be there at the end of the season?
Giro
Good news for Eurosport that Cav is the best sprinter, if he can get our first WT win in our first GT it will have been worth the wait.
Not so good for Bardet as the competition is a bit hot, with his rubbish recovery expecting a few bad days so top 10 looks like a realistic goal.
P.S. Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas

Giro prologue and first stage of the small Giro posted.
Sorry for the delay, i only now got to start those races, thanks matt for doing Romandie in the meantime.
I could need some more help with reporting this month, so please PM me if you have some time and PCM15 and want to help out. |

I was about to complain about the outrage of not having a race in two days
Holy crap the Dev Team won something, it's a Christmas miracle!
Then again, I somehow did not assign Tim Wellens to the Giro, a huge mistake on my part 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Well not a bad start by Cataldo fortunately, now he just needs to perform like he did in Romandie because he obviously 100% peaked for this one and we're safe.

Another great TT performance by Kennaugh, who's having a pretty good season so far. It's not hard to embarrass Dennis, who is a complete waste of money, but he has done anyway.
Now, give me stage wins please.
