Hi! Some of you can maybe remember my thread with Roubaix Lille Metropole in PCM09 when I finished in 2035 (HERE). 26 years in one team, without changes. Completely new riders fighting for victories. No longer Contadors, Schlecks, Valverdes, etc. Now I decided to do the same with PCM10. After 3 days of downloading PCMDaily2011DB (yep, downloading by torrent; I will play on that DB) I want to start new career and share with you my results with completely new team or from one of the worst in the DB.
I have one question to you guys. How would you like to see this? Special post with results, photos, etc. year, after year, after year... Or in more details. Maybe every two months in game? I will still playing meanwhile my Fantasy Tour de France on PS3.
So any ideas of team to start? Do some sort of national team? Something else?

Cool idea.
Yearly overviews with big results and maybe some photos would be cool
Maybe it'd be nice to start with a CT or PCT team and work it up to the WT over the years! |

So my challenge to do The Longest Career will start with this team. I have made some sort of early transfers thanks to 10 days period at the beginning of each career. That team has only 1 star! If everything will go okey, after few years it could be even eight. I can guarantee that. I hope so. Of course Nielsen is suspended by UCI. Well, I like it. I was surprised that I could sign even Valverde with this team. But they are all suspended. Photo of my team below, also with goals for this season.
Sorry that the photos are not in English, but I have Polish version of the game and I can't change that .
Let the party begin...

I hope this team will reach eight stars! I think sprint jersey in Denmark will be easiest goal |

First season has ended. What was my team results? Very nice!
Oh look! First real mountain stage and 4th place after such a good climber like Rolland!
Surprise 2nd place in a GC? Yes, especially after winning ITT.
Another surpise place. Who would imagine 3rd place in this classic after all day breakaway.
And many more...
Let's see which riders has been winning UCI World Tour races.
Santos Tour Down Under | Tyler Farrar | Paris - Nice | Linus Gerdemann | Tirreno - Adriatico | Alexandre Vinokourov | Milan - San Remo | Juan Antonio Flecha | Volta Ciclista a Catalunya | Fredrik Kessiakoff | Gent - Wevelgem | Fabian Cancellara | Ronde van Vlaanderen | Filippo Pozatto | Vuelta Ciclista al Pais Vasco | Robert Gesink | Paris - Roubaix | Tom Boonen | Amstel Gold Race | Alexandr Kolobnev | La Fleche Wallonne | Danilo Di Luca | Liege-Bastogne-Liege | Joaquim Rodriguez | Tour de Romandie | Tom Danielson | Giro d´Italia | Damiano Cunego | Critérium du Dauphiné | Alberto Contador | Tour de Suisse | Andreas Kloden | Tour de France | Alberto Contador | Clasica Ciclista San Sebastian | Samuel Sanchez | Tour de Pologne | Tom Danielson | Vattenfall Cyclassics | Mark Cavendish | Eneco Tour | Fabian Cancellara | GP Ouest France - Plouay | Damiano Cunego | Vuelta a Espana | Alberto Contador | Grand Prix Cycliste de Quebec | Alexandre Vinokourov | Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal | Egor Silin (what a surprise, isn't it?) | Giro di Lombardia | Danilo Di Luca |
Velo d'Or Rider of the Year:

And another goals:
It's time to make big impact next year. Newly sign Benfatto will be scoring so many points in the early season in a sprints and flat classics. I think he can get about 500 points looking at calendar. Henao, Castroviejo & Lhotterie will be fighting in a stage races or one day classics. Maybe not in this year but I think that in 2 or 3 years my team will be part of UCI World Tour. This time I will try to uploud more photos with results.
Other news:
A. Contador made Tour-Vuelta double
T. Boonen has won his 4th Paris-Roubaix |

First months weren't even good. But when it was June...
First of many good results in a GC.
June was a good month when it comes to my team results.
July looks even better.
August and another top 10 results.
Oh look! My sprinter has won a one day classic race!
And at the end of season my team leader gets third place in another one day classic. Take a look which riders were after him!

Other info:
- Tom Boonen has won his 5th Paris-Roubaix, that is an absolute record
- Nibali made Tour-Vuelta double this time, also he won Tour de Suisse
- Tyler Farrar won his second Tour Down Under in a row
- Damiano Cunego has won 4 one day race WT classics this year
What in next year? I'm hoping to get some wild cards for some races. Maybe even for Giro d'Italia? That is my main goal for early season. Still need to upgrade my team with better riders. I think that in 2014 I will be close to get a WT advance! |

This EBH reminds me of the 2007 version who would often develop into winning Ardennes and top 20s at grand tours. Anton, Cunego, Farrar, all dominant in 2012 too... what could have been. |

Nicely done! The team are progressing strongly and should slowly start to get better results in the next few years with so many promising riders recruited.
Also, Landis riding for Team Type 1

Thanks all of you for responds . (so happy that Ctrl + T for print screening is working, it made it a lot easier)
@ OZrocker & @ sutty68 - In my DB Landis is now riding for Team Garmin - Cervelo .
20132013
What I have to say about this season? Wasn't easy. In 2014 I will probably be losing money each month as a result of being above income from sponsors. It will be hard. In 2014 I will try to get a wild card for Giro'd Italia or Vuelta. Also I will send application for some 1-week races like Tour de Suisse, maybe Dauphine or Catalonya. But, how about results? I had to play some stages, trying to get positive credit from sponsors.
Absolutely brilliant stage!
But not so brilliant GC at the end of race.
Langkawi was a good race...
There were some top 10 places. Not all showed of course .
Benfatto isn't the fastest, but he can win some classics.
WT race winners:
Santos Tour Down Under | Ryder Hesjedal | Paris - Nice | Daniel Moreno | Tirreno - Adriatico | Alejandro Valverde | Milan - San Remo | Tyler Farrar | Volta Ciclista a Catalunya | Ryder Hesjedal | Gent - Wevelgem | Tom Boonen | Ronde van Vlaanderen | Filippo Pozzato | Vuelta Ciclista al Pais Vasco | Ryder Hesjedal | Paris - Roubaix | Filippo Pozzato | Amstel Gold Race | Alejandro Valverde | La Fleche Wallonne | Alberto Contador | Liege-Bastogne-Liege | Alberto Contador | Tour de Romandie | Bradley Wiggins | Giro d´Italia | Vincenzo Nibali | Critérium du Dauphiné | Roman Kreuziger | Tour de Suisse | Igor Anton | Tour de France | Alberto Contador | Clasica Ciclista San Sebastian | Tejay Van Garderen | Tour de Pologne | Alejandro Valverde | Vattenfall Cyclassics | Jimmy Engoulvent | Eneco Tour | Tyler Farrar | GP Ouest France - Plouay | Philippe Gilbert | Vuelta a Espana | Andy Schleck | Grand Prix Cycliste de Quebec | Damiano Cunego | Grand Prix Cycliste de Montréal | Jose Rujano | Giro di Lombardia | Roman Kreuziger |
What about transfers? I made some. I signed some young riders hoping to get one with great potential. So how it looks like? Will they become great riders in future?

The team seems to be improving as it changes each year, hopefully the sponsors' money keeps coming in so that they can stay at this level

Salceda certainly looks like a good talent for the future |
