Of these, Belkin of course, since I'm a fanboy
But I chose other. The thing I like to do the most is 'lower league management'. Building up a small CT team, develop their talents, and long-term, getting into the WT.
This can be any CT team, just teams that have some talent and aren't too overpowered in CT.
At this moment, I'm doing that with LKT.
Feyenoord(football) and Kelderman fanboy

When the DailyDB comes out it will be back to my staples.
Chevrolet-Telmex (mostly North American custom PCT team)
Team Sky
Italia (Italian PCT team)
Node4-Rexona (Adaptation of Node4-Giordana)
I mostly use Sky an Europcar from the real teams. Sky is the uk team and i love Europcar. But i always like to switch things up so i stay motivated and interested

Any small French team usually not a big fan of starting with the best teams. |

Movistar of course! Earlier was allways Caisse d'Epargne. Why? Now, because there is Valverde, Costa and Quintana. Earlier? Valverde and lovely black shirts. |

i really like this team, too. since 2004 i was a huge valverde fan so i played with this team since then. but the doping case got me a little away from him.
i think the team is too strong for me right now with costa and quintana and all the good domestiques. |

When final patch and Daily DB finally are released, I'm thinking of Garmin career. The team seems interesting as you have good riders for each type of race (Farrar for sprints, Dennis for TTs, Hesjedal and Talansky for stage races, Martin for hills, Nuyens and Vansummeren for cobbles).

When the patch comes out I'll go back to my yorkshire team. I think following through a custom team is the way to go, especially as I've got the main one (for all the big races and riders) and the development squad (for the UK races like the critereums).
I did use to play Sky before hand (well it's the UK one), or Endura as was. But I think the custom teams cover both now.

Only played custom team so far. Prefer working my way up. But if I was to pick one of the WT or top Continental Pro teams it would have to be Euskatel. Always been a fan of the underdogs (so I guess some of the smaller french teams would work), and keeping the team basque and competetive would be a nice challenge. Best shirts as well
Also a fan of Samuel Sanchez.
And liked Iban Mayo before the doping thing

I votet for Saxo-Tinkoff, because there the only real Team i have a career with. The main reason i picked them ahead of others was pretty much just Nicolas Roche. It's more fun really with a custom Team though.

Will start a career with Movistar I think. Never played with Quintana before. Signed him once in a Colombia career for pcm12 but never started the 2nd season. Should be a lot of fun trying to challenge Froome with him.
Other option is making a costum team but haven't done that since Pcm 09

sometimes a custom team, but I love being a manager in Europcar. I never choose the best teams |

I used Sky for my 1st season in PCM 13. But when my jersey is done, Ill go custom. I like custom more, as I look at it as a challenge to get into races like the Tour. And while my sponsors want this and that, I also try to place very well in every race...to end the season as a wt team. And if I do well even if I dont become a wt team. My second goal is to sign a top rider due to my results. The AI makes this harder than you think. If your not doing well come time for signing riders many top guys will refuse your offer. If your doing well you can get a big name, at times 2.
So just because I like Froome, Ill say Sky till my jersey is finished. Then it will be all custom.
Pain,Agony,Suffering...Thats why I love cycling!
