Concentrate on your future first and then worry about PCM |

Yep, but not too long for us addicts
As said before: work/family/school/university/real life are more important than PCM!
+1
Take the time you need! |

Hey tsmoha, have you played the opening TTT yet? If not then I have some tips for you.
1. Since the TTT is only 10K long, put the effort at at least 95, probably even higher.
2. Use only your 4-5 best TTers and put them on three-four min long relays and send them back when their yellow bar is empty. Also, move those that you won't be using back as soon as your team starts.
With this you only need to make sure your leader and at least four others crosses the line together.
And then, good luck with the Giro and hopefully dark dogs first grand tour podium |

I'm quite sure tsmoha knows how to do in TTT's himself.
And don't worry about the break, tsmoha. You deserve it, after all the great work. Really looking forward to the Giro, whenever it comes.

Well, he haven't had the best result in TTT before if I'm not mistaken. So I thought I might as well tell him how I do it, usually I get a good result by following those steps. |

You deserved the break indeed, tsmoha!
And hemsedal: In an earlier post tsmoha said he already played the first stages, but hasn't got the time to make reports of it |

If tsmoha doesn't know how to ride a TTT by now he never will |

@all: Thanks again for the support, even though there are no updates atm
@hemsedal: Thanks for the try to help me I'm really bad in TTTs, but I know the "basics".. it's more up to our lack of good TT-riders that we do so bad in TTT's.. and, like vangerner said: I already played the opening stage!
@sutty68: I agree - I will never become good at TTTs..
@Pelli2/tmobile: Thanks for the kind words, guys! It feels a bit weird to have such a long break for the first time in "years".. but with christmas nearing, there will be some free time

All I can say is that about 10% of PCM players are reasonably good at TTTs.
Hope you come back with lots of motivation for the Giro!!! |

@FreitasPCM: Agree about the PCM Players and their TTT-skills!
