Just catching up the latest races. Had to laugh about this one 
what else is there to say about the rankings "meh Kiserlovski and Majka lost places but at least Sánchez gained places"
also Pologne is a joke, how the living fuck can Luis León Sánchez win a mass sprint

To be fair, I expected Societe to be waaay lower in rankings, considering we don't really have the strongest team, but guys are really doing a great job now and I'm happy with this so far. French power!

I still could need a reporter for USAPCC, but if noone is volunteering I wouldn't have a big issue with doing that myself.
The first stages of ToNe, Colombia and Utah can already be posted, but don't be too quick as the September races shouldn't be finished before ~15th of September.
For those of you who are interested I worked out a system for QuebecSC.
Spoiler | Round 1 | | | Round of 32 | | | Quarterfinal | | | Semfinal | | | Final | |
| A | | | A | | | A | | | A | | | | | | Pot 3 | | | Pot 1 | | | R32 A 1st | | | QF A 1st | | SF A 1st | | | Pot 4 | | | Pot 2 | | | R32 E 1st | | | QF C 1st | | SF B 1st | | | Pot 5 | | | R1 A 1st | | | R32 C 2nd | | | QF B 2nd | | SF A 2nd | | | Pot 6 | | | R1 B 2nd | | | R32 G 2nd | | | QF D 2nd | | SF B 2nd | | B | | | B | | | B | | | B | | | | | | Pot 3 | | | Pot 1 | | | R32 C 1st | | | QF B 1st | | | | | Pot 4 | | | Pot 2 | | | R32 G 1st | | | QF D 1st | | | | | Pot 5 | | | R1 B 1st | | | R32 A 2nd | | | QF A 2nd | | | | | Pot 6 | | | R1 A 2nd | | | R32 E 2nd | | | QF C 2nd | | | | C | | | C | | | C | | | | | | | | | Pot 3 | | | Pot 1 | | | R32 B 1st | | | | | | | | Pot 4 | | | Pot 2 | | | R32 F 1st | | | | | | | | Pot 5 | | | R1 C 1st | | | R32 D 2nd | | | | | | | | Pot 6 | | | Pot 3 | | | R32 H 2nd | | | | | | | D | | | D | | | D | | | | | | | | | Pot 3 | | | Pot 1 | | | R32 D 1st | | | | | | | | Pot 4 | | | Pot 2 | | | R32 H 1st | | | | | | | | Pot 5 | | | Pot 3 | | | R32 B 2nd | | | | | | | | Pot 6 | | | R1 C 2nd | | | R32 F 2nd | | | | | | | E | | | E | | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 3 | | | Pot 1 | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 4 | | | Pot 2 | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 5 | | | R1 D 1st | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 6 | | | R1 E 2nd | | | | | | | | | | F | | | F | | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 3 | | | Pot 1 | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 4 | | | Pot 2 | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 5 | | | R1 E 1st | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 6 | | | R1 D 2nd | | | | | | | | | | | | | G | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 1 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 2 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | R1 F 1st | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 3 | | | | | | | | | | | | | H | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 1 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 2 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pot 3 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | R 1 F 2nd | | | | | | | | |
Out of each group the first 2 will progress into the next round, in which the two riders that progressed in the previous round out of one group won't race against each other again.
Based on their stats and scored PR points this season the riders are put into 6 pots. A draw will randomly place them in a Round 1 or Round of 32 group.

I regret not sending Sánchez, since he can win mass-sprints now

That Sanchez sprint win was really weird indeed, but he had just the right timing and there were no top sprinters. Basically he won because the trains were kinda bad and he has a good FL stat and ACC so he can maintain a good position and go for a very long sprint. 
I really like this system for Quebec Sprint Challenge. Nice work, bikex, as always. Though I am kinda confused how Kristoff managed to be in Pot 1 - did I miss all of his big results this season?

He is still one of the better sprinters, and it's not like he didn't score at all.
He is listed as seventh, that means he got the seventh highest value and looking at the names that are below him, I think it's allright to say that he deserves the spot in pot 1. |

Some great point scoring in CT Tour of Utah, though apparently there's no beating TVG. Especially Kangert shows what a talent he is.

Yes, the continental stage race marathon will continue with the Vuelta a Colombia. First stages will be up today and the rest will be released over the rest of the week, unless Bikex wants the speed increased.
-- Hoping to do something in the upcoming WT stage race. |

You can't stop TVG!!! His dominance continues with a hard fought and just gutsy strong performance in Utah. Also a good race for Hill Valley boys, partly because of the smaller startlist.

The pace is great like it is at the moment.
With TVG winning in Utah it doesn't seem unlikely that he will challenge the stars of the WT for the win of the Prestige Ranking. |

yeah Golas  the only rider in my team that has a decent sprint (on paper since Sánchez is suddenly a Sagan that can win )

I didn't even know I'd sent such an awful team to this race .
Swift staying in the mix though and Stannard in the KoM jersey so it's alright so far.

Sagan doing very good once again. Too bad that there were time gap issues on stage 2 that prevented Sagan from being closer to the front

It was a big goal for Prorace to finish in the top 3 at the Tour of Northern Europe, looking good at the moment.
- Next 3 stages uploaded of Columbia.

Kristoff still showing that he can't win in ToNE. However, I can't be too disappointed as he brought in some points at least by finishing Top10 usually and even once Top5. Still, that is too less.
@Shonak: Could you do me a favour and tell me how good the sprint preparation was? Because if Kristoff was always positioned bad, I shouldn't blame him but myself for not signing a proper sprint train. Oh, and that goes @Bikex as well in case you remember something. (Yes, I could have come up with this thought earlier )
