Still leading the most important ranking: The PR Team ranking. Great!
Also, it seems that my predictions were on target as the teams that I predicted to fight for the top are the teams that are at the top (at both WT and CT)

-because the WT calender has not enough races that suits sprinters well enough to let me Kittel race there.
-because I can / because I have the depth to send a leader to every race
-because I rate the Prestige Ranking the highest and since I could not imagine to fight against relegation I used some CT races as important point earners. (I think some CT races are of a (much) better value than some WT races)
edit: why did I complain about Kittel in the CT, I don't have any sprinters
-because you don't want an unexpected advantage over your more sprinter-based CT rivals ?

you mean the advantage they have because of my less sprinter focus

Looking forward to the Tour.  If the cbs-stages won't work, I won't mind if we cancel them and instead a normal TTT maybe hehe  But I guess other people will care about that though, but maybe you can make it work by working with screenshots?

I got it working, the game crashed after the first cobblestone stage but saved the result so I could get it out of the savegame and the TTT was working without a crash. |

Yeeeaaah! 
What a crowded sprint in stage 3. But hey, fourth and sixth is definitely a good can opener. Hoping for no crashes on cobblestone stage now.

 Fantastic.
Superb win by Wiggo, he really wanted that one. Prorace have the yellow jersey in the Tour, has to be one of the, if not THE, highlights of our season.
With a cobbled stage upcoming, Wiggo will be going for the stage win .. in yellow, but I don't think the stage will be too selective.
In contrast to the Giro it would be good to see some of the race favourites flounder on stage 4. |

Not a bad start but was hoping for better in the prologue. Now it's time for G to do his thing and fuck up Cancellara alongside his mate Wiggo.
Muhammed Muhammed starting well. Which stage will he abandon? The next one?

My only fear is Froome crashing out or weird AI. As I can't do anything against both of it: Fingers crossed that he gets over the cobbles without bigger problems.
By the way: First stages of Thüringen-Rundfahrt will be up today.

Brewers90 - I thought Wiggins would have been a good addition to Bunzl, are you regretting not going after him? ..... YES!
Sounds good Silvio.
Nacho - Well I am doing the Tour of Austria (then Portugal), but the Tour of Vancouver might need someone to do it.
Bikex - Any chance we can have the 'scouting' excell sheet on the horizon? (I reckon everybody who has an interest in the ICL has completed the 'research' one by now.) |

Hmm. I remember doing the research. I can't find anything in the outbox though, so I'll do it again asap.
Or have you recieved it from my side, BikeX?

Stages 4-6 of tdf posted
Spoiler The AI of the cobbles stage really sucked, sorry. 
I tried that stage before some times because to check if I could change that it crashes in the end and the gameplay was always better with some of the favourites attacking mostly. This time it was really weird. |

Nice, Bertie in Top 10 and Ion Izagirre momentarily in white. Some sweet points along the line, though the distance on the first place hurts a bit already here. Well, wait for the mountains and the spanish armada will sink ships - hopefully. Had hoped for more time on Froome & Quintana in the TTT.

PRORACE! Fantastic from the team. Yep, I think it is fair to say our guys have been the team of the first week. The GC makes for some ... pleasant reading!
Great shot of the team in the TTT win, great to see Chavanel in the French NC.
-- Bikex -
Well done on getting around the cobble crash problem. It seems PCM2013 will give us quite a few problems, ie, the results would not export for the fourth stage of the Tour of Austria (tried multiple times). So I had to manually record the results there.
I will upload Austria once Silvio has finished his race. |
