Stage 6
The stage was for some weird reason simulated when I opened the save? Anuways, none of our riders did anything this stage. Cavendish took it.
Miniatas Konovalovas was best of our riders in the GC with a 71st place... Too bad the crash at Willunga ruined everything for Sømme and Rouleur.
GC
1. Petacchi
2. Cavendish
3. Farrar
Summary of the race
Sømmes sprints and Rouleurs late attack were the highlights this race. The crash at Willunga destroyed the hopes for a good GC placement. Miniatas Konovalovas did a great job for Hunter up Willunga, and was our best rider in the GC. Mazlov did not do anything, I did not even see him fetch some bottles of water...

Tour Mediterraneen - Our first succes!
Riders
James Rouleur, AG2R
Bob Bobson, RadioShack
Top results:
Stage 1: Bobson 1st
Stage 2: Bobson 13th
Stage 4: Rouleur 4th
Stage 5: Rouleur 3rd
GC: Rouleur 3rd
Summary: Bobson winning the first stage, after a succesful attack, and outsprinting Finetto, Voeckler and de Waele for the stage and yellow jersey for three days! On the fourth day it was Rouleur's turn to shine as he kept up with Gilbert to the end and got fourth. And on the next stage he could finally step up on the podium as only Sagan and Gilbert was strong enough to outride the britishman! In the end a great race for both of the riders, showing they can compete at top level!

Yeah, you haven't had a single race day yet, but I'm sure it will come soon! As you can see both Bobson and Rouleur had some succes in the latest races so we will see with you!
@Freitas Yeah everybody will have to watch that great talent of a rider. He has no contract for next season so I can see a great amount of offers for him!

I did, because it was the most general name I could think of and it doesn't give my identity away at all.

Paris - Nice, Stage 1
A flat stage today, as the riders set off towards the south and Nice. Favourites for this race are Andy Schleck, Robert Gesink, Denis Menchov, Romain Kreuziger and Levi Leipheimer.
The first part of the stage was chaotic with lots of attacks. With 60 kilometres remaining Aramendia (Euskaltel) and Maes (QuickStep) were at the front with Flecha (Sky) and Maaskant (Garmin) not far behind. Even the peloton was only a bit over a minute behind. Wiles and Arguelyes was in the back of the pack. Here is Wiles, protected by Lighart.
The heavy rain made the pack go slower then expected and with 5 kilometres to go, the break, which now contained Maes, Flecha, Wurf, Burghardt and Maaskant had over a minute to the peloton!
In the final sprint Maaskant crushed the other escapees and took stage one of Paris - Nice 2011!
A dissapointed Flecha and a happy Maaskant after the finish line:
1. Maaskant, Garmin
2. Flecha, Sky
3. Burgardt, BMC
..................
50. Wiles, Vacansoleil +0'42
134. Arguelyes, Katusha + 0'42

Vuelta a la Region de Murcia
Riders
Ørjan Sømme, Sky
Bob Bobson, RadioShack
Miniatas Konovalovas, RadioShack
Evgeniy Mazlov, Movistar
Top results:
Stage 1: Sømme 5th, Bobson 12th
Stage 2: Sømme 5th
Stage 3: Sømme 2nd, Bobson 3rd
GC: Sømme 2nd
Summary: Sømme in great shape, and will most likely ride Tirreno - Adriatico together with his big idol Edvald Boasson Hagen. Only Castroviejo could prevent a 1-2 for Sømme and Bobson on the 12 kilometres long TT in the last stage. Sømme finishes 2nd overall after exceptional riding in the second, hilly stage of the race.

You have some race days, but no results. I must have missed him participating in those races. I'm sorry...
