2 places away from my Goal. And a couple podium finished too! This isn't looking too bad!

Damn, Krasnoperov was a foolish rider to allow clear I can only hope he is knackered after the breakaway.
Difficult to see how the last stage will go I would like to think after a number of stages of fairly lazy racing my guys can get their asses on the front in the final climb.
The last Calzati and Gadret move is a saving grace from stage 9 however, those two will be looking to try and pick off a few more GC places on stage 10.

What a strange and unpredictable race. Nice reporting roturn! Your style clearly improved over the course of the race.

Nice one I didn't expect Ford to hang on podium here, but he's a decent fighter and today he proved this skills. Nice race for Oz, indeed.. even though our climbers all crashed out of GC-competition and we missed a stage-win.. we can't complain... well deserved win for Emu and also Jayco did very well with 4 (?) riders in Final Top-10!

Thanks all for the positive feedback for my first man game race.
Was a pretty interesting race to report. Also interesting to read your after stage opinions when knowing what happens later. |

Some of the riders the game generated after the first season of the ManGame are really starting to come good now. First Di Maggio wins a CT race, then Krasnoperov follows suit,

First; great reports roturn, very nice "pacing" aswell!
That race turned out pretty disappointing for our team. Haedo being our best rider overall, in 19th, pretty much sums it up, when the race included 2 mountain stages. But at least we got a stage win, and Haedo was great, fighting for the green jersey.
Huge congratulations to Emu Export, they were simply dominant as the race progressed, and Krasnoperov deserved the win after picking one of many right breakaways. |

Don't know whether to be happy about that or miffed at what might have been on the overall..... |

Great race, never thought I would see one of my riders inside the top 10 after the race was done, Kinney has really performed well, like the rest of the team and that Bazajev won the point jersey summed up the race for us!
Congratulations to Emu Export, they were really good but I can't wait for Trentino... VDB will hopefully complete our top 5 goal there, though I expect some great challengers.

Thanks for the reports roturn.
There has to be some regret from us that Veloso being in such a great position to win the race allowed it to slip away on stage 9. But still the guys battled hard on this last climb to do some damage and despite no stage wins the team, it was quite a lucrative race.
Congrats to Emu export though this race could be turning their season around.

Haven't been following this race very closely, but I've of course been reading the reports.
Thumbs up for the great reports roturn. Really nicely presented. And congrats to Emu Export. Krasnoperov proving his strength here.
Now bring on Trentino.

A very pleasant race for Puma. Kelderman snatching a stage win exceeded our expectations by far, and being in another 4 successful breakaways adds some nice results and unexpected points as well.
Thanks for the reporting roturn, and congratulations to Emu Export for a deserved GC win.
