Mh. Expected more from my Kazakh duo tbh... Khalmuratov quite strong, perhaps shouldn't have released him.

On the bright side, we can only improve from here on

Great stuff with 1-2-4 for Oz and our former rider Cheung going strong as 6th. Would have rated Durbridge as the bigger favorite, but Ford is simply the more experienced specialist. We are expected/allowed to xcreate a special shirt now? Any idea how to make them look like?

Not sure if there are special shirts for this. Just a fun event I think. |

Hussein on the podium is great. Surprised he beat Craven but maybe he just had a bad day. Hopefully he can contend for the win next year when he's maxed. |

Not a lot of surprises here, which bodes well for Coppels season. Now I just have to hope he can beat Fiedler, although I don't really mind Fiedler winning here, as he has no jersey. Coppel already have the french TT jersey.

Ford is a beast and Pluchkin just ripped away all the other guys in the Bs strong performances from both of them.
Not a surprise winner in the African TT but quite a shake on the expected order of the guys below him.

Well, I have asked Aidan to create a template jersey that would allow other jersey makers then to create a champion jersey, as they would know what type of jersey they should create. So I believe if a manager of a rider that wins one of these CC races wants to his rider wear a special jersey and his jersey maker will create a jersey with an inspiration from that Aidan's template, then the rider should be able to wear that jersey for this season.
Only possible problem could be, that your team may have used all slots for special jerseys, as Goss uses _world tag and another rider is already using _aus tag as well. So if _world_itt tag still works in PCM14, then I see no problem with Ford wearing a special jersey.
Oh and 3rd is a decent result for Sergent, nice to get a medal from these races.

Amador always seems to do well in climbing time trials, but catching Uran is something else! It does seem like TT results won't always be so predictable which is good to see, since it often is the most predictable discipline.

I think it'd be great to have one more special jersey in game, but for next year we could leave national and world champions excluded from continental championships.
I'm delighted to have so much racing going around before the season has even started. Kudos everyone.
Pleased as well to see Nascimento taking 5th in America!

Awesome to see Meier 4th and Cataford 9th in the Americas a top start to our Continental championships hopefully the rest of the team can follow suit and give us a kick start to the season. |

Now this is seriously interesting. If Phinney can't expect to take more than 30 seconds away from his major rivals in these semihard TT's then he could well be struggleing to win any Grand Tours this season, or even make the podium. That is very very interesting.
