I feel like this isn't said enough in this thread, but you're doing an absolutely outstanding job reporting these races. You make it tense from the beginning until the end, and you deserve many credits for that

+1 to Selwink!
And Lipawsky had a good race considering the sand, hopefully it'll get better later though.

Frankly i think you're doing a horrible job.... but only because you canceled one of my races and wouldn't let Max use needles. It feels like a crusade against me and i don't like it! Plus you probably altered someones stats to 85, even thought we use a 1-5 scale.

My plans went out the window.
24/02/21 - kandesbunzler said “I don't drink famous people."
15/08/22 - SotD said "Your [jandal's] humour is overrated"
11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant."

Absolutely, and I really appreciate how you give people the liberty to go so far away from your plans! (or at least I think you didn't plan most of the stuff riders do )
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

I am disappointed for my protest wasn't mentioned. May as well have ridden normally.

He has a problem with opposition against the UCI and Bakari winning...

@selwink: Thanks a lot, it's always nice to hear!
@TMM: Sure did, you know me!
@Ollfardh: No, contrary to popular belief I'm not that good a puppet master
@LLS: Yes, this was done on purpose. The reporting, too, is role-playing. And I figured the commentators for the Superprestige cross wouldn't mention the protest (which is part of the Coca-Cola Trophy). Their protest didn't go unnoticed, but I don't think it'll matter much, either. In the end, the season continues, can't stay still with a canceled race

Magnificient, this puts Vague into attacking position, carnage incoming (hey, I try to look on the bright side of things)

Just a half an hour later, I was in the hospital. Only there, I heard which rider won. Cornelis 3rd win - or isn't it already his 4th win of the season? Looks like I'm better at keeping track of the season in my antibiotica-fueled state of delirium than the CX experts out there.
Woops
The fight for the Superprsetige will be interesting in the next few races |

Especially with the collarbone that Vague Definetly broke. *nudge nudge*

Riders potentially interesting in Icorda Racing (check the game thread), contact me thought PM or just below. I will reserve at least 4 spots for new riders joining next season. Other 4 spots are open to young talents already in the game.
Their budget is limited, so guys like Vague, Carlisle or other prodigies are too much wage for the new team. Icorda is looking for young riders who have potential but still have to grow a lot. |

Check the Bristol preview here.
Ice riders should be happy with the current developments. With the next three races in Great Britain, there's a chance of at least 3 ice parcours. Team Odfjell will be glad to see that! |

I'm sensing the Timi/Kimi rivalry should come right to the fore here.

Anyway, hope to bring you the race tonight or tomorrow |

Bristol turned out to be one hell of a race. Only 32 finishers. The race also keeps up with its tradition of bringing forth surprising winners! |

Rumour has it that the New Zealand team has bought a supply of 100 dry-blowers. Wonder what they're up to for the next race... |
