This is great, I believe those would actually be the goals of EBH if Cav wasn't around 
EBH for Eneco tour!  |

Valverde Thx, that's the idea. Of course the team is by far the focus here, should be fun writing those blogs though  I knew you'd like them
Schleck96 Thx for the kind words, Tour will be definitely tough but we have to try. Will do
lluuiiggii Heh Thx, hopefully I'll get this going so it become a sucesss
FreitasPCM Very philosophical there Glad you're ready and waiting for the beginning
Ian, well good you got them spot on. With EBH it was kind obvious what his goals would be I guess, the thing now is to complete them Eneco is probably by far the one that suits him the most and we'll go for the win
Hopefully we'll get the DB soon and all the stories can begin Thanks everyone for commenting, reading and following so far

Once again, more great ideas and initiatives. Well done Alakagom.
You convinced me to play some PCM 12 today with Sky, but it didn't go to well. Paced with Froome, Porte, Sivstov up a whole climb, peloton of 98 riders finished. Cya logic.

I was playing in career in Paris - Nice. It was technically a hilly stage so that might have helped the peloton. But still annoying since I had all those guys gone at the end, only to see Wiggins finish in the P. Gonna play some Giro stages later, see how they go..

That sucks, hopefully at Giro you'll have better experience in mountains. I really hope the last patch will do something to the AI, however doubtful that is.

I don't know for everyone else but AI in my career has been awesome so far.
Mountain stages are really exciting and realistic, so maybe that's just me, but if it's only me then you can have that luck for the story |

I dont think it would hurt to start a Sky story anyway.....
You never know, you can compare results. Plus Alakagom has a slightly different idea with this story.
And he never finishes his Sky stories, who's to say this one gets very far... 
He;s a mod isn't he? I think I'll make the most of my last night on the site...

Haha, well I can do it now
So overall Sky would become overpowered soon in the season. Uran, Henao, Thomas, EBH would develop even greater. If Wiggins, Froome do well at the Tour in 3rd week, stats rise etc. So overall Sky will not be great long term plan.
But this made me think and I choose a new team, after given it bit of thought that should be really fun. It's Saxobank ( without Contador at all later in the season ). It's fight for survival Hopefully this will be my long-term story. Going open new thread with all presentations done when Daily is out and ready to play.

Too bad I was really looking forward to a Sky story now, especially from you But you probably wouldn't have been able to come close to their real life results anyway
Now I'm waiting for the new Story - better luck with that one

Hmm, I just thought Sky might be overpowered and Saxobank will be more interesting for the readers, dunno.
Well with such squad I should replicate their results. I could definitely to better in Ardennes and at Giro

Wait, nos Sky? Shocked, but I have to say good choice. Saxo is a good choice imo, especially without Contador. A fight for survival in the PT, with Nuyens, Chris Anker and co. all attacking for precious points, then having a big party in August as Contador destroys La Vuelta and maybe the worlds.
I love it.

Saxo should be an interesting challenge. Hope you can keep the story running long enough. |

This.
Agree that SaxoTink would be a better challenge.

Glad you like it, I think similar. Saxo should be more interesting. Actually Saxobank in my team will sack Contador. No Contador help at all in August, we have too survive without him and then next season if we did - strengthen. Should be fun
And glad you seem happy about the switch, hopefully it will be fun and challenge. We will really depend on CAS and Nuyens in later season, and try to grab few wins at the start of the season.
Btw, would you rather use Saxobank normal jersey ( as like at the start of season ) or do the sponsorship with Tinkoff ?
