Knowing PCM, they will give the award to Cavendish. But my vote goes for Cancellara. |

Cancellara for me. He has a great palmares, just like Boonen and some others. But the Tour KoM and in especially Top5 GC makes it more special.

Thanks everyone who voted!
No doubt that Boonen is the big favourite here. You'll find out who the real prize goes to in just a few days' time. I'm almost done updating all the WT teams, so just a little finetuning of the PCT and CT teams and we're good to go!
@ valv321 - Glad to hear that from you! I'm rather happy with how some of them (Boonen, Cavendish) turned out, whilst I messed up Cancellara for example. Well, I don't consider myself a graphics designer anyway.

Just a question if I may: what exactly do you do when you say you're updating the WT, PCT and CT teams? Transfers or...?
Anyway, can't wait for the story to start up again!! |

Yeah, mainly transfers.
The main cause is to prevent ridiculous moves, like an 80+ rider going to a CT team, but I'm also updating the rosters to look similar to real life. A bit more fun that way I think.
