Yeah, i noticed that went i took the shot, and the initial thought to take another was replaced by "it just looks so brutal, keep it!"  |

Allright guys here's the outlook for the next few weeks.
Today i'm finishing up what needs to be done before vacation, and maybe playing a bit of PCM on gamecenter in the breaks.
Tomorrow it's the end of season party at work, and saturday i'm traveling to the place i grew up in to spend the summer. I will play a stage or 2 every once in a while over the summer. But don't expect too much. I'll try and see if i can finish the Vuelte in the coming week tho', so season 1 is more or less over. But expect a very slow pace for a while. It will get back up to speed sometime medio/ultimo August |

Apparently fatigue is a major problem (will be fixed by patch), but jsut how much does it impact the fitness? If you have full fatigue, what's your max training fitness?
Some of the cpu riders in your story do 2 GTs (can't remember names now) in high form, surely the will max out their fatigue. Still they appear fresh as daisys. isso implied in one post that the effect of fatigue is very small. What's your experience on this? |

I had Nibali on full fatigue in the Giro, and he still had 98 fitness and i got a top 5, so it doesn't matter at all.
Btw. Mads, great story. |

Then you could just create a schedule where you have your riders peaked through out the season? |

The fatigue bar only goes to the 6000 that it was last year, but this year it's 8- or 9000 that is max fatigue so riders can have much more fatigue than the bar shows before their max traning form hits 60.

I've only -2 reductions so far i think. The rider fatigue just as fast, maybe even faster than last year. But now, the fatique doesn't hit you that hard as usual.
Let's see what i find when i get my PC out. |

norwegian nubies comentators said that samuel sanchez isnt basque. is that true? because if so then you more or less have a valid reason to take spanish riders in general, or? |

Yes, he was born in the Asturias (spelling) region, so he isn't basque. |

He rides for them because he grew up in the Basque region though doesn't he?
I know he rode for a Basque team as a junior
