CLOSED.
Due to me wanting to pursue a single rider story
and
Not many people were interested
THE NEXT BIG THING
This year, Qantas has decided to widen the outlook of the company by starting a cycling team. Qantas has spent the last year preparing management, doctors and looking for a new sponsor. Qantas, however could not find a sponsor who would give a big enough amount of money.
Qantas then found a American sponsor who agreed to have the team under a international license rather than a Australian.
Today, Qantas are proud to announce to its secondary sponsor.
ABC!
Stay tuned for latest Signings!
Details:Spoiler Database - PCMDaily Public Beta
Evolution of Attributes - 4.0
Orientation of custom team - 80%
Difficulty - Normal
Due to me still waiting on the jersey to be finished by someone, i will not be playing for at least 3 days.
Signings are still being decided.

I have a QANTAS jersey made by tehMalone. It has SANTOS instead of ABC though. And it is QANTAS, not QUANTAS.

Miguel's Blog
All of us at Qantas - ABC are ecstatic today with Cadel Evans recording our first ever win(in our first ever race).
Cadel rode gallantly in the Individual TT and he beat his heir opponent by 3seconds.
Cadel then went on to ride the road race where he finished 2nd and only beaten in a sprint finish.
Cadel did not pull of the double we were hoping for, but a first and a second is great start to the season and we hope he can continue these fantastic results! Go Cadel!
-Miguel

Although I like some of your riders (Evans, Martin, Matthews, Bobridge, Phinney) I think those have to do a lot of work. It seems a bit unbalanced, with 8 riders with an average of 60 and lower.
There is a great risk that, depending on what course you participate in, and what riders you bring, your leaders get isolated very early and have to do too much work (like getting bottles).
I hope I'm wrong, but am curious, so that's why I'm gonna follow you

Yeah, when I made the team, I considered this, the way I see it I will use alot of young riders in pretty decent races, so they get experience.
Also, my trainers are going to be legendary to help train them extremely well.
P.S Nice to know i have my first follower  |

Stage 2 of the 
The Stage is as follows:
Today's Tactic: See if bobridge has the legs to score a few more sprint points and get us into a good position for the sprint.
Bobridge tried to attack, but everytime he was pulled back by Leopard Trek.
Maybe hoping Daniele Bennati could get the win for the jersey?
Danny Pate said he was feeling good today, so we gave him a chance to go for the mountain points which has always been a dream of his.
And Danny won it!
The team decided to let Danny try to stay away from the Peloton, but it failed and he was gobbled up.
A small group that contained 18 rider and many from each team(NOT OURS  ] so we went to the front to chase because Matthews said he had the legs.
Unlucky for Matthews today, he was lead out by Taylor Phinney who was boxed in and Matthews couldn't get through. Matthews still finished very well considering what happened.
Stage Results:
Other Rankings:
GC Ranking:
Sprint Ranking
Mountain Ranking:
Young Rider Ranking:
Team Ranking:
If You liked this, please let me know, I'td make me feel better if someone was enjoying this
