Taking a break from Karl for little bit.
This will start in a week or so.
But i want people opinion as to what i should do...
1) Like my 2011 Europcar story but for 2012 and with FDJ
So thats - 3 Stage wins, Top9 GC, 1st Youth
2) Like my 2011 Europcar story but for 2012
So thats - 4 Stage wins, Top7 GC, 1st KoM
3) 50 wins in a season with either Cavendish, Greipel or Gilbert
Please say which you would like out of those 3
4) Win Giro 2012 with Hesjedal or Vuelta 2012 with Valverde
5) 3 GT KoM Jerseys in 1 Season
Please say a rider
Other ideas welcome

Dont go for 50 Cav wins. I was planning to do that soon XD
3 GT KoM seems like a freaking awesome goal to go for though. No idea which rider you'd want to use though, because KoM is odd. |

The KoM one is odd
It would have to be a WT rider...
I was thinking of Kessiakoff or Pinot type rider
Someone who actually could compete for the KoM in real life
Must have decent, but not great, MO and HL and Rec stats

KoM with Pate
No, maybe Gesink? or Titi? Oh wait, Voeckler isn't WT.
Make it Gesink then

Yeah, I remember I got KoM on a TdF playthrough with Porte (Sky). Originally I was gonna have Froome go for it but ofc, that doesnt work cos obviously he wont be allowed into breaks. |

I tried to do it on PCM 2011, got to 49 wins with 2 races left (which were suited to Cavendish), but finished 2nd to Greipel both times. Only problem is the fatigue level towards the end of the season. |

I'd say Voeckler, Rolland, Taaramae or Van Garderen would be best for teh 3 KOM's but only Tjay is world tour and I'm not sure whether he would be allowed to try it by whoever he's battaling for the young rider's jersey. apart from that i'd imagine someone like szmyd would be a good choice if he's not having to work for either nibali or basso and de gendt could probably do it but again you might run into problems with GC guys not letting him go. |

50 wins in 1 season with a rider like Haussler/Degenkolb/Kittel, Haussler because he's a good Classic rider and can sprint aswell and Degenkolb or Kittel because they are simple the best duo in sprints |

@sammy
Yeah only VG is WT, and hes too much of a GC rider to be allowed free
@yves
Degenkolb and Kittel are not WT, and thus its too easy
If i used both Langkwai and Quinghai i could grab 15 wins with no competition
If i added Oman and Qatar that goes up to 25 in 4 races...
I like the idea of Haussler though...
I know with anyone i would do some conti races but as a WT rider i would race lots of WT races for more of a challenge/realism

That's sure (Andy is one of my favourite rider)
So my vote goes to 3 KOM jersey, though you must decide a not so strong cyclist in mountain...Yeah i don't like the easy thing |
