Creating Groups (Schedule)

Hi all

I am almost there setting up my new team on PCM2014 and have a question regarding the 'Group' tab within the schedule screen. Could some kind person shed some light on what this feature is for ?

It seems like you can create a group (some icons such as mountains etc) but no explanation of what this means. The groups then appear on the left of the screen and you can drag and drop them against a rider under either Group 1, 2 or 3. Again what does this actually do?

Does this have any bearing on race fitness/readiness ?

If there is an e-manual anyway that someone could link to (or attach) that would be well received.

Cheers

Rob

I don't think it has any affect on fitness, moral or anything similar, it probably just sorts your rider in groups (f.e. climbers), so you'd be able to easily pick them up before the race, when planning, when adjusting trainers or simply when you want to sort it for some thing (for attributes, for race days etc.).

Not 100% sure, so it would be nice if someone confirms this.

When (if) you plan your season, then instead of assigning individual riders to the races, you can just select a group.

ok, thanks both.

So to ask a slight more pointed question now then. How do I adjust the training schedule (by which I mean the peaks and troughs) for each rider?

In PCM2012 it used to be possible to create custom training/fitness regimes which you can then assign to each rider. Is this possible in PCM2014?

Cheers

You can do that by setting objectives to each rider. You can set up to 5 races that will be his, either primary or secondary, goal in that season and his form will be focused on those races.

To train someone (developement), buy (or use the ones you already have) trainer/s in Staff tab and just choose the type of rider you want them to adjust to (f.e. sprinting trainer to Kittel, stage racers trainer to Froome etc).
