Spoiler Hey guys, I just recently purchased PCM 2014, and have been working hard on downloading basically everything that I have been missing out on. After playing around a little, I have decided that I need to give it another go at a story. Ever since Big Brother, I have felt like I have what it takes to do a solid story like others have been doing. The keyword being "STORY". This will be a slow progressing story, and I will be taking my time. I already have alot of other things going on around here. I hope that you all like the story and have fun reading about yourself!
DISCLAIMER: Everything said and reported in this story is 100% fictional and only used for entertainment and story purposes.
For years, members around the world have coincided, argued, and communicated with each other with the central focus being on cycling. It has since branched out into a variety of other topics.
It was a normal day for the forum until members began a discussion about personal cycling lives.
- "I am better!"
- "Are you kidding me? You couldn't pedal that bike 5 miles without stopping for a break."
- "You wish, you are too young to even get on a bike without falling over."
Conversation like this continued all day, and tensions were rising on PCM.Daily. Before long, it was obvious that certain countries were teaming with others making allies and enemies. This needed to be settled soon before the whole damn forum was gone.
"ENOUGH OF THIS! We are going to settle this once and for all. We are going to create our own teams, and we are going to race!"
Of course, this needed to be organized. and PCM>Daily reached out to Gerald Forbes, cycling league manager and CEO for a league in western Europe.
This was really going to happen. Gerald set up the leagues, getting sponsors for races, locations for races, and even league personnel complete with a logo.
There was going to be 18 teams. They were going to do a full season. The 18 captains were selected by Gerald, and they were based on PCM.Daily activity and contributions since it opened.
issoisso, SportingNonsense, valverde221, admirschleck, Crommy, Ian Butler, ruben, Alakagom, TheManxMissile, Jesleyh, sutty68, CrueTrue, tshoma, Pellizotti2, roturn, Lachi, Deadpool, Aquarius
They were all chosen as captains. First they selected a jersey and sponsor. They would then hold a draft, and not surprisingly, it turned out that nationality was heavily favorited in the selection process. All of the members have strengths and weaknesses, and in the end the teams came out fairly even.
Leaders and top riders came out like this:
The strategic planning and training was now underway. The schedules were being finalized. This was a chance for teams to compete against each other, while individuals are also competing against each other at their respective countries national championships.
Who will come out as the best rider of PCM.Daily!!?

I guess you could call me President Forbes. It is with great honor that I lead this cycling league at the start. I am hoping for a clean season both physically and verbally. May the best rider and team win.
I would like to begin the season with a few points of interest that the fans and riders should know of.
- We are going to be mocking the names of real life races for the most part, but for special races we will be using our own names!
- I will use this point system to determine the best team all year:
| ACHIEVEMENT | POINTS | | Stage Win | 2 | | Race Win (0-5) | 3 | | Race Win (6-10) | 5 | | Race Win (10-21) | 10 | | Points Jersey | 4 | | Mountain Jersey | 3 | | Best Team | 3 | | 2nd podium | 1 | | 3rd podium | 0.5 |
- Keep in mind only the 18 teams and riders of those teams are eligible for prizes.
- The schedule is cut down for the first season, just to see how everything goes. I am hoping to turn this into a very big league.
- I will do the best job that I can at getting reporters to all of our races and giving all teams an equal chance at winning.
This pretty much sums up most of the information that needs to be covered.
I will have my reporters post from here on out unless I need to make a special announcement. Otherwise, the start of the season should be coming soon!

To be completely honest, this isn't even a creative story idea, c'mon at least add some twist into it
Nonetheless, I am looking forward to using jdog as my water carrier, good stuff

Big thanks to jdog for making this AMAZING userbar! |
