Updates have been non-existant since yesterday, well my finger is on the Play now button, so i guess 40 minutes until the report will be here.

Nimes, beautiful town. Mark Cavendish won here in the 2008 Tour de France, that was last July. It's February now, a lot colder, and a different race and instead of finish here, we're going to start here (The tour de france did that too Pfft ).
So, whats the aim of the day, get in a breakaway. Possibly even win the stage.
So, Stage 2 of the Etoile takes us from Nimes, 112km later we'll be in Saint Ambroix.
2 KOM points.
On with the stage then...

It's very windy today!

A break of 13 riders got out early, and got brought back early too.

So, a good day, not the stage win we hoped for, but we are holding a jersey, which is good.
Our new aim is to hold it all the way to Besseges. Just 3 stages to defend it on, not many.

Now a post:-
The may bug in the expansion pack will happen during this season.
When the fix comes out, what would you like me to do?
a) Start Over (i'd rather not!)
b) Simulate to where i am.

Sim it man! Riding the same races again would be so boring for you. And everyone will be starting stories these days, so these races wont be far between.
 
kirosha
a...
 
olabj
Simulate it. I agree with Mads
 
doddy13
in which case, i'll finish up the Etoile and when i comes to simming, i'll make sure to
a - Enter the same teams
b - Let you know of all the results that come out of it. (I hope for the Stage win at the TDU and top 10 again)

Good Morning, today we're in La Grand-Combe for the 3rd stage of the Etoile de Besseges. I've predicted that today is the deciding day in the race.
Let me tell you my tactics:
2 leaders are here. Casar, and Joly. I can therefore play the 1,2. One rider will attack, when he's brought back, i'll counter it.
Let's run down the stage:
139km from La Grand-Combe to Les Salles du Gardon.
2 Sprints in La Grand Combe, one climb of the Col de Portes and 2 climbs of the Col de la Baraque.
What's going to happen? I really don't know. We also have 2 second battle, to keep the KOM jersey.
(Before you read the report, it's a good one. Keep in mind the stress and tension here. It's a good one!)

Here we go..
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc1.jpg
Here's the start line, Duval is in the Mountains classification jersey. Can he defend it? Can we get the overall win? Only time will tell...
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc2.jpg
YANNICK TALABARDON ATTACKS! ZOMG!
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc3.jpg
Mourey takes the first KOM at the Col de Portes. He's basically nulifying points.
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc4.jpg
So, Mourey is nulifying points, but he's dead. Duval attacks from the peloton to try and keep the jersey himself. Mourey needs 3rd on this climb to keep it. The final climb of the day!
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc5.jpg
One guy up the road, i need to take 2nd in this group to keep the jersey, but it will belong to Mourey
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc6.jpg
It's close, a Cofidis rider attacks, do we have the jersey, my maths says yes!
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc7.jpg
Now onto the General Classification battle... Joly begins the 1,2 tactic. He goes up the road early, Casar is towards the front on the bunch. Will it work out?
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc8.jpg
Joly brought back, here's Casar. The battle is lost, it's for placings now!
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc9.jpg
Rodriguez of Caisse wins the stage, but where's Casar?
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc10.jpg
Rodriguez gets the stage, but does he get the jersey?
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et3_sc11.jpg
Nope, Fedrigo keeps it!

So, an exciting stage.

Bonjour from Allegre for the 4th Stage of the Etoile de Besseges. Today we're looking for a stage win, and to maintain the Polka dot jersey.
Today's stage is quite flat, one for the sprinters however they may well be out of energy towards the end. A KOM sprint is just 20km for the end of the stage.
At the same time, i've very much hoping we can do well here.
Todays race is 128km from Allegre - Les Fumades.
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et4_sc1.jpg
Today a break went out, containing 8 riders including Sinkeldam, he's been very active during this race.
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et4_sc2.jpg
The first KOM point of the day is at Cote de Lablachere and it's taken by Sinkledam.
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et4_sc3.jpg
20km to go, and there's another KOM, this time taken by Poos (yes, ok I laughed at the name too!). Anyway this was the Cote des Brousses
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et4_sc4.jpg
10km to go, the break has been brought pack, now it's all about the sprinters!
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et4_sc5.jpg
Arnold Jeanneson wins the Stage.
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et4_sc6.jpg
Does this screen really need an explination, either way it's Jeanneson on the podium as stage winner!
i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk470/doddy13_cym/FDJ%20Story/et4_sc7.jpg
Fedrigo is still in the Maillot Jaune and looks set to win the race tomorrow.

9 Alexandre Aulas CarmioOro - A-Style 12
10 Roy Curvers Skil - Shimano 12

In the next stage, we need to stay alert, to keep Mourey in polka dot and of course, thats our new major aim of the race.
Then of course the stage win would also be very nice.

Anyway, so next up will be the final stage into Besseges.
--
I'm hoping to play the stage tonight, so we can move on tomorrow!
