On the right? Nothing there Pfft But its different on pcm12, max time one rider can be in front is only 25 sec.. Should I use 99 on everyone? And how long should the best and worst TT riders on my team stay in front?Rolling Eyes

Have you tried the tips and tricks section in PCM Tools to the left of the screen Wink
 
Alakagom
Same principals from previous games apply here mostly. Check the Tips and Tricks corner too.

Most TTT's have 2 check points. The key I use is that each rider does:
68 TT = 8 seconds
69 TT = 9 seconds
etc.
85 TT = 25 sec
All riders under 68 drop unless they are GC

For power I go 80 all to first time check. Then 90 all to second, and 99 all out to the finish. That usually gets you the win or close depending on your team on Hard. Of course, anything without two checkpoints I'm clueless.

Fitness of riders matter too what are your riders fitness?

Put the effort up to 99 in a small TT i guess.


On the Giro one (30km I think), il was at like 90-95 and I won it by far (with a good team, Garmin). My crappy riders took the first relays at the very beginning at 99, so they did approximatively as my best riders did at 90-95 (don't remember exactly). After a few kilometers, you must go to your best TT riders, your weak riders shouldn't stay too long ahead. You set long relays to the strongest, and shorter relays to the weaker ones (the weakest are not taking relays anymore at this time, they were just used for beginning to save a bit of energy to your leaders). The theorical objective to achieve is that your fifth rider must turn out of energy at 1-2kms before the end... It should be ok to stay with the four best riders.


I hope it's not too badly explained... Good luck Wink




Edit : Just tested it with a weaker team (FDJ) and finished second for 7 seconds Wink 2 weak riders took first relays (Geslin and Vaugrenard at 99). My other bad riders Démare and Soupe was at the very end of the train so i didn't use them at all. After 2 relays of 25" from Geslin and Vaugrenard, i used my 5 best riders (with TT stat from 68 to 74) with a 95 effort which was a bit too high though. For the relay times, i use TTstat -55. (ex 68 -> 13s, 74 ->19s) At the end, my best rider Roy (74TT) had still good energy so he totally finished the job on last kilometers. I just had to adjust his effort so that it does not loose my fifth runner. And it worked great Grin

Try to train on the Giro TTT, and don't worry if your first intermediate time is bad if you use my strategy, it's obviously normal...

I'll be interested with your feedback, especially if you play in hard difficulty Smile (I play in normal for the moment)
