Stage3
Team Meeting: We will definitely be using all of our energy to bring Rojas over the line first.
A break got away but was caught with 17 km to go then the trains took over and lots of our riders started dropping back.
With 3kn to go heres what the trains looked like Rojas was in a good position since the rider he was following was a decent sprinter.
As the announcer in the game said He brings home the bacon for his team with a win here today. We are very happy with Rojas after a powerful sprint ot go around everyone like that.

Stage 4
Team Meeting: We will get Sanchez to attack and get back the time that he lost yesterday. It will be a relaatively easy day and Sanchez has a very good chance of winning the stage today let's hope he does.
Here is today's break. The rider with the nost chance of victory if the break succeds today would be Trent Lowe of Garmin.
On the final climb of the day and the break having just over 1 minute over the peloton Dani moreno decided to attack to surprise everyone.
It didn't work to well and about 3km up the road Luis Leon sanchez attacked and passed Moreno. The only riders ahead of sanchez was Lowe and the other remnants of the break.
But Surprisingly Moreno had a lot of energy left and caught up to sanchez and protected him to save Sanchez's legs for the later part of the climb.
With 2km to go sanchez passed the final escapee from the mornings break and sanchez was all alone in front. sanchez could win but M. Rogers was catching up fast.
But with 1km sanchez had the win for sure and he could start enjoying it.
We are very pleased with the results of this stage and hope to hold on to the 1st in the Gc.

Stage 5:
Team Meeting: Don't lose time and try not to get break to win.
This was the only man in the brea ktoday he was at about 5 minutes ahead when the pack decided to put up the pace.
He was still the only man ahead of the peloton and with 20km to go our rider joined the chase to bring him back. Our riders worked their hardest and with 10km to go the trains formed and rojas followed sanchez.
This was a great sight for us the first time we had sen this rider in about 4 hours and we now had a chance of victory.
And sure enough rojas won. It was a really good stage for us and we are happy throughout the whole tour.

I just want to thank everyone who has been folowing my story so far. Sarcasm No noe has been following my story.
But if there is actually anyone following my story culd you let me know if you want me to stop or chose 1 of the races to do. The choices are Ronde Al pais vaisc or Paris roubaix. Or should I do all three.

I like Paris-Roubaix and Tour of Flanders the most, but your team will have better results and probably more intrest in Al Pais Vasco! I quite my story about Vacansoleil too, I still play it, but just because of the lack of interest for stories which are not from "09...
Succes! I read yours...

ok I think that I have decided to quit this story since nobody has been following. The only reason I'd continue writing is if I get enough convincing posts saying please don't stop or something.
Or I might give it another go with a new team way later.

It's not because of you, youre writing style or pictures. It just because it's not the newest game! I think you did a great job, but for one person you don't have to put so much effort in it 
Good luck...

After quite some time thinking about it I will continue writing this story with Caisse. I do need help with who should ride in the Giro and I will skip Al Pais Vaisco since theyr'e not very fun stages and want to do Roubaix. So can you giver me some ideas on who should ride the Giro. Hopefully this is the right decision and hopefully you are happy abou this.
Next Report is on- Paris Roubaix

Paris Roubaix
Team Meeting: We will try t osurprise everyone with Coyot. He can get a top 20 and his goal is to beat a Cobbles star. Someone like Burghardt maybe. We will get a rider in the break if possible too.
The stage started slow but the attacks finally came.
Ervitri got in the break and was in the leading group.
The break got nowhere and the peloton reeled them back in.
With exactly 100km to go Coyot was still in the peloton and actually doing very well.
Coyot was still in the brea kwith about 60km to go and he was feeling very good. Maybe a top 3 was possible with none of the favourites yet to attack. The pace was vey high so maybe some riders near the front were struggling.
With 30 km to go Flecha put out a massive attack leaving the rest of us behind. The max he had ahead was about 2 minutes and he was looking very strong.
Flechawas doing very well and was just unbeatavle today as he rounded the last corner and went onto the track he could start to celbrate this because in his mind he was probably thinking "I just won the Hell of the North"
Here he is he has won it Paris Roubaix. And at the same time......
Spartacus turns onto the track but it's already too late.
And here is Coyot he finished quite well but outside of his goals so maybe his goals were too high. He finished 31st.

Amstel Gold Race
Team meeting: Of course our team goal for today's race is to win. We have 2 very strong riders in this race with Joaquim Rodriquez and Alejandro Valverde.
Today started off bad for our team as Joaquim had a puncture and he had to work very hard to get back into the pac k but made it before the pace was really high.
On the last climb of the day Rodriquez attacked after Menhcov and many of the favourites had attacked already.
He got to the lead group and was sitting at the back to get some energy since it looked as though it was going to be a sprint win by someone in this group. Some notables are F.Schleck, Kirchen Menchov and S Sanchez.
Now Valverde attacked to try and get to the lead group but it was too late and che could not catch them.
Now with 1km to go the sprint had started and Schleck was in the lead could he win......
Yes He does win.
Stage:
1 F Schleck
2 S Sanchez
3 Rodriquez
4 Wegmann
5 Kirchen.
Ps Sorry about the results I forgot to export.

Le Fleche Wallone
Team Meeting: We will again try t owin just like in Amstel. We have the capabilities so lets get out there and try to win.
This is today's break. One big name and one of my personal favourites is Thor Hushovd.
With 15 km to go LL Sanchez attacks and he caught up to the breakaway group and then accelearted past them.
Then he was all alone with just 6km to go.
On the last climb sanchez was slowing down slightly and the group behind could see him.
With 500 metres left Sanchez was neck and neck with Wegmann and some others.
But luckily Sanchez just held them off to get the win.
I am very ecstatic about this win. It our biggest victory of the year
