First PCM08 information!

Christmas is coming and we decided to unveil the very first information about PCM 2008.
This year, in order to cross a new threshold in rendering of riders, we decided to re-work from scratch the 3D rider model.
Here are some of the changes: - A more realistic and consistent mesh for the rider. - No more deformation on the rider texture. - The bike texture is large enough to allow us to faithfully reproduce the real model. - Different 3D meshes for frames, wheels and helmets
You can already download the new rider viewer with his 3d mesh and his texture. Thanks to this, you’ll be able to play with custom creations as soon as the game is available.
We’ll also most probably ask the best creators to include their best creations in the game, so everyone has the chance to be a creator for PCM 2008!
Be careful there are some problems with the skin in the viewer, but that’s not the case in the game. Please take no notice of that. if you do not see the rider (everything is grey), your video card probably won’t be compatible with the upcoming version of the game.
You never heard of Charlie Wegelius? He's been a great domestique for his leaders in the Giro every time he has participated and we've got some climbing youngsters coming through
But as i don't want anymore talk about how we're not as good as other countries at cycling, i know we're not, Sporting knows we're not but we're not that bad, there are lots of names that were great British riders.
to be honest i don't see how a Danish-man can say that another nation is bad at cycling
You had Rasmussen until he was fired from his team, now ou have hardly anyone. Not counting Rasmussen I belive the amount of British PT wins this season outweighs those that Denmark have had
and that definatley was the last thing to say from me about this
(oh and when i said "were" i was meaning Obree, Simpson, Boardman, Robert Millar, Malcolm Elliot, etc. not they used to be good but aren't now)
oh and present tense means at the moment, now.
past tense would be talking about something that has allready happened.
future tense would be talking about something that will happen in the future.
I could possibly keep yapping, but seeing how im nearing a ban, ill just finish by stating that Rasmussen is equally as innocent as Mayo is, on one way or another. Read that in whatever context you want too, because its quite possibly right in all cases.
Mayo B sample is negative according the spanish, and positive according to everyone else. Replace Mayo with Rasmussen and spanish with danish
No seriously.

@SportingNonsense, just a point of fact. If England competed on its own, then you would not be in the top 10 track cycling nations. Its a fact that you draw most of your talent from Scotland and Wales and call it your own is just a little too cocky.....
What the....? I said BRITAIN. I hate it when Englishmen refer to Britain as England or call the Union Jack the English flag, and then you go and claim that I am like that with absolutely no proof whatsoever?
Besides, Wales only really have Geraint Thomas at the moment and its a fairly even mix between England and Scotland - and you musnt forget the Isle of Man.
