Welcome guys to my new story!The team choice wasn´t very easy for me but after few hours of thinking I was sure to try my luck wth Columbia.
Now many of you know how successful alexkr00 was in his sensational career with this great team.Well it´s not my wish or demand to make it as good as he did because this is almost impossibleBut I think you know that.So after my great carrer with Katusha is overI will continue with this story because I really had a lot of fun writing a story for you,that´s my goal!
So i´m happy with my new team and of course with the new DB!!I will take the PCM.daily 2010 DB and i want to thank all the great people who are responsible for this masterwork
Ok with these new goals and new challenges i´m ready to make the readers happy and of course myself ,too.I really hope you will have fun and enjoyment while reading this story,if notplease tell me what you would improve.
The team presentation will follow!!!

Here´s a screen with the stats of our team in the PCM.daily database:
Important races:
Tour de France
Milan-San Remo
Paris-Roubaix
Philadephia International Championships
Amgen Tour of California
You can see our top goal for this season will be the Tour de France.Because of our great sprinters we are looking forward to the green jersey there and maybe many stage wins by Mark Cavendish.Next key race is an one-day classic in Italia it´s called Milan-San Remo and Mark want to defend his great victory of 2009.Paris-Roubaix will be really difficult for us because except Eisel there´s no rider with good cobblestone skills!
The last 2 races are in America so we have to shine there of course
Season goals:
At least 1 stage win at the Tour de Pologne
Arrive as best sprinter at the Tour de France
Arrive as best sprinter at the Giro d´Italia
Arrive as best sprinter at the Vuela
Top 5 Milan-San Remo
Top 5 Vattenfall Cyclassics
So these goals are not easy to reach in the following season but we will try everything to get as many as we can!!
So let´s go ,hope you will enjoy it |

Ooo, all point jerseys. Good luck.
Is it like Cavendish for Giro (allthough I think it is difficult unless you win all flat stages and also use breakaways for sprints) and Tour, Greipel for Tour and Vuelta.

Cavendish will go to the Giro and to France
Greipel is our main sprinter at the Vuelta |

Well i don´t think so because Mark Renshaw is Mark´s lead-out man
But it´s not sure what happens in the future |
