Snowdonia. A mountain stage? You'd have to get right to the top of Mount Snowdon to make it into a mountain stage, and then only just

I may exaggerate Mount Snowdon. As I will exaggerate other stages. |

6/10 British Stages done, and it has been revealed that Zoncolan will be climbed twice - up both sides, in the Italian tour. |

have you tested these?
before you posted this I was 100% sure the game crashed if you put cobbles on a TT

Theyve all been tested - the cobbled TT has no issues whatsoever. The only problem I found was that Stage 3 had no cobbles for some reason, if cobbles dont come its a shame, but wont matter too much. |

I like this idea looks very good congrats, hope im still in it , would like to help Contador. If you do something like this again i have an awsome hill circuit you could involve with climbs about 1km long at average at 40% anyway. Do you think i might see some simulated guys wondering round Brimingham |

Smoothie you will be racing in the British round for sure - theres only brits in this round though for Rapha - so no Contador, the Birmingham stage is one of the most exciting! Its a twisty downhill circuit - 47 crashes in my test run!

Not really donkey work in such short stages!
Finally, theres 1 change to the teams list posted earlier. Air NewZealand have replaced Eurosport.local as Eurosport's local riders are in the Eurosport.co.uk team.
Ranking Points
Each stage: 15pts for first, 14 for 2nd, 13 for 3rd ... 1 for 15th.
Overall Classification at end: 30 for first down to 1 for 30th.
Mountain/Sprints Classification: Same as Stage
Also theres a bonus point for leading a classification after each stage (Young rider not included)
