I've played pcm since 2007, but this is my first story so please be kind
I'll play with a realname db, but i will change some stats.
I'll play on hard.
Our team leaders and staff where picked from the top of the shelter.
We worked to make a new test team for Team Specialized Test Team.
We would try to fight for the green jersey in tdf and try to make some victories out over the year.
So far we only had one signing, and that man was hard to get, we had to guaranty him full support and we used alot of our money on him.
Robbie McEwen
Description:
He is a former top sprinter, but he can still sprint, maybe give us some fun in tdf.
Som History:
Robbie have won 12 stages in tdf, last one in 2007.
The green jersey is won 3 times in 2002, 2004 and 2006.
He also have 12 stage wins in Giro d' Italia.

After hard work the team could announce 3 new riders.
Michael Matthews.
This is a very young talented sprinter that can maybe get some chances, but primarily a lead out man. This man have for an example won the u23 world championship. That says alot about the rider.
Paul Voss.
We managed to get a german rider called Paul Voss. Yet a sprinter have signed, he is a former rider at Milram.
Philip Deignan.
This is a talented all-round rider, that can hold quite long in steep hills.
He is a formet Cervélo rider, so this means a class rider at our team. Good signing. |

The team had a low cut of money and we where struggling to sign riders.
We haven't signed any rider in 1 1/2 month.
The team didn't know what to do, it wasn't just the money, it was finding a free cyclist and convincing them to come to our team.
But 25th. of August we had made an break through with the money and made 1 big signing, and 3 minor signings. |

Here is on of a 2 minor signings:
Hayden Roulston.
This is a very good lead out man who can have som real long lead out's.
George Henderson.
This is a fast sprinter that only works on flat stage's, so he will have a hard way into the Tour if he want's to join our team.
With the big signing will just be 100 % sure of him so, stay put.
How do you like the signings so far? |

Im not very good in explaining that, sorry
But you use primarily photoshop, i guess you can use other program aswell, but it won't be that good. I started with paint.net and moved on to photoshop and was playing myself up on the rank. |

John Gadret.
Yes, this is a good signing for the TDF. He is a very good climber and a good helper for our big signing that we will reveal soon.
Kurt Asle Arvesen.
We picked this man beacause he is a strong, and is very good on tactic's during a race.
Not long before our big signing is revealed |

And once again were haveing a signing round.
The team is now 11/25 cyclist's.
Chris Froome.
This is a british all-round rider.
He is a strong rider that will be capable of helping on both cobbles and hills.
Francesco Gavazzi.
Yet another lead out sprinter. But this man can climb just as good.
So this is a good all-round rider.
Alessandro Velo.(Fiction)
A young talented 19 year old. We are very happy for this guy, it is a beg climbing talent. He have already been top 10 in u23 WC.
So we are signing riders just as fast the lightning.
After som help from the sponsors we got some more money, even if where getting less and less. And the big signing took some of the money.
