Well, after 48 pages of fun with SpiderTech, I decided to put up a poll, to decide what kind of story should I do next. I have plenty of ideas, so let's go!
Important: I won't necessarily choose the one that gets the most votes, I'll go after my feelings! However I'd like to know your opinions, hear your comments etc.
Option 1: A CT team filled up with young guns, created by you, competing in bunch of fun little races, watching the development of your riders. (Will need active team members for that!!!)
Option 2: A team based on young stage-racers, competing with the creme of the PCT right away. Bunch of fun guys like, Henao or Talansky.
Option 3: A bit less strong than SpiderTech was, but still quite good. Alternative: Same Team, but surviving in the PT.
Option 4: A fun custom team with asian riders, a middle-PCT level.
Option 5: Pretty please, no!
Option 6: Talks for itself, please specify which and why!
Option 7: Collecting the talents of the North of Europe, Hushovd, EBH, and the other guys
Option 8: Bringing together the goods of the Middle, should be fun with wide variety of riders! Basically, if we have Sagan PT, if not PCT or low status PT.
Option 9: Trying to go through the hard periods of Andy, finally winning something big now! Or not.
Option 10:...
No deadline, until I feel like starting it, the voting is open!
So, voice your opinion, try to convince me!
Feel free to use any of my ideas, have fun!

I like the sound of option two, with all the young guns in one team |

Revive an old team!
The '06 DB would be perfect, or if with the 2012 DB...
some ideas:
Rebuild US Postal without the doping. But dont start with Van Garderen or Talansky or Phinney.
Revive T-Mobile. So much choice and Jensie!
Re-create Highroad. Take the squad as it was in 2011 and just have fun winning.
or go a bit off the wall eg.
Barloworld. Some africans, some brits and some older fading stars
What ever you choose, make sure you will enjoy it. Even if that means you win everything thats fine as long as you enjoy it.
You write great reports so no-one cares

I would like a Central European Team... You've got some nice, talented riders there, none of them are big beasts (except for Sagan ) and should be quite fun. But I think someone else has done something similar, not sure though. |

What about a PCT with non-North American, Oceanian or European custom riders (so Asia, Africa, South America)?

@SSJ2Luigi -
@TMM - Thanks, will be considering your suggestions.
@FreitasPCM - I think it was brewers90, who made the Ian Bibby story. But it was quite long time ago, I believe.
@fcancellara - I don't really want to mesh it that much, I'd stick with one (maybe two continents.) |

As a hungarian , I obviously vote for Team Central Europe!
Also, ignore the option 5 , people must have been trolling... |

You should try to do an African team. With Teklhemainot (sorry If I spelt it wrong), the Van Rensburgs and many others! Try to keeP your team African the whole time on your road to glory! I've done the same with Scandinavians, I reached 2025, it really works and it is good fun!

+1 Would be awesome to see Mapei again, or Mercatone Uno with Pantani... |

@maxime86 - Sorry maxime, but it surely won't be a Joe Dombrowski story.
@juszta - As a fellow hungarian, I like the Central Europe idea too, and will surely ignore option 5, as I really want to start something new.
@lokytrew - I was considering to make an african team, but I decided against it, because I like MTN too much, and don't want to ruin their team.
@Ian Butler - Good idea, although my cobbles skills aren't really good yet, but this should be a good chance to improve it.
@ste_18 - Hmm... Mercatone Uno seems interesting, however I don't know about Pantani. Would it be realistic to implement him into the team? |

Well, i'm talking like a fan of Pantani so... but you are right probably wouldn't be so realistic... |
