They are not the real routes because the game doesn't work like that 
But they are decent crits based around the correct areas of Wisconsin on real roads.
What is a good, free programme i can use to pack things into .rar?

Will be releasing Stages 1 and 2 for the GT Central Europe very very soon (as soon as i figure out how to pack files into a .rar)
Very happy with them, but there are a few things i will point out that are graphically wrong.

Grand Tour of Central Europe
Stages 1-5
Finally a public release of the GT Central Europe. Here are the first 5 days of racing, which take us from just outside Brno in Czech Republic down to Vienna in Austria.
Stage 1: Masaryk Circuit ITT
An 8km Prologue around the Masaryk Autodromo Motorsport Circuit and its access roads. The circuit is located just outside Brno in the Czech Republic.
The route starts off uphill on a main access road. The race turns 90 right onto the circuit itself. From here we go clockwise round the track. It's a decent down to the bottom of the race track, its a fast decent that is fairly easy for all. From the bottom turn its back round and up a steep ramp. Hitting 7% gradient for a few hundred meters, this is where the time gaps can come. From there is a short downhill sprint to the finish line.
(Note: I place the route poorly so there is an error, where the riders that have finished group up on the starting straight... it looks odd but has no impact on gameplay)
Stage 2: Brno - Trencin
A 144km flat stage. The first road race of the GT begins in Brno in the Czech Republic. Brno hosted the Grand Depart and now waves goodbye to the race. There are couple of small hills before the halfway point. The big feature of the stage are the looming final two climbs. The first climb is the biggest, and with some steep ramps, has the capability to put weaker or out of form riders into trouble. After a short decent the second climb can be very decisive. Its not overly long, but is deceptively steep running at around 10% or over for its duration. The decent can be a technical in places, and will be run at high speeds. The run in to the finish itself is nice a wide and flowing, which is perfect for a sprint. The finish is in the Slovakian city of Trencin.
Classified as a flat stage, those final two climbs can really force a selection and cause havoc.
(Note: There is a bit of a floating field towards the finish)
Stage 3: Trencin - Bratislava
A 171.6km flat stage. The race starts where it finished the day before in Trencin. The race follows the main road along a river for the opening half of the day. Eventually the race moves away towards some hills, via the edge of Trnava. The final quarter of the stage is headlined by the climb of the Pezinska Baba. It slowly builds in gradient topping out at around 10% near the summit. Its an open decent which will signal the start of the sprinters finish. The run in from there is flowing roads which are open and mostly straight. A few lumps could offer hope to late attackers but is unlikely. The finish in Bratislava is dead straight if slightly uphill. A perfect stage for the sprinters.
Stage 4: Gyor - Vienna
A 162.8km sprinters stage. Overnight the race has changed countries, from Slovakia into Hungary. Gyor signals the race start. The peloton will follow a nice open main road all the way into Austria. With about 2/3 of the race done the peloton bend off the main road to tackle the days climb. The Buchkogel is not long, but does have some steep sections towards the summer. From there the race is back on the flat and races towards the finish line. In Vienna things get a bit tricky. The road narrows and the peloton has to tackle some 90degree corners to get onto the finish straight. The final 2km are flat and straight which will allow the sprinters a nice duel to the line.
Stage 5: Vienna - Stockerau - Vienna
A 50km Team Time Trial. Starting in Vienna, where we finished yesterday. The teams will charge up towards Stockerau. When they get into the town they will switch roads and start the return journey closer to the river. The will sweep right over the river and back into Vienna to finish. Its a pan flat day where the GC can be shaken up. Not one for the climbers, but a good team can minimize their losses.

Its amazing what you can do when you're bored on a friday night ...
Vuelta a Andalucia
Fantasy Variant
Stage 1: Cordoba ITT
My version of the race begins in the heart of the region, Cordoba. The riders face an ITT to begin the race. The route heads out of town and loops over a hill to the north of the city. Its not a long hill, or a high on, but it does come with steep slopes in places. There is plenty of flat running either side to make this one for the purists.
Stage 2: Cordoba - Sevilla
We start in Cordoba again. The race heads out south-westerly on a long slog across country. Two early KoM climbs mean a lively start to proceedings. The race is mostly flat with some small climbs along the route. Its a wide, downhill run towards the finish town of Sevilla. But that doesn't mean the finish is easy. A 90 right onto a narrowing road with 3km to go is not easy, then a 90+ left still on close roads with 800m to go. A good lead-out will be key, as will technical ability.
Stage 3: Utrera - Benaojan
The day starts in the town of Utrera. The race follows some main roads towards the hills. The climbing starts before halfway on the Cabrezo des Andre (5km @6.2%). This is followed by a short climb up to Olevra (3km @6.3%). Both before halfway. As the race enters the final quarter of the day it tackles the days main climb. The Cerro des las Lomas has to be passed. Its steep ramps will provide a perfect place to attack. From the summit its a bumpy run towards Benaojan. The final climb in Benaojan will test those tired legs (1.5km @7.8%).
Stage 4: Ronda - Velez Malaga
Ronda lies the wrong side of the hills for the peloton. The day begins over more climbs early on. 3 early KoM sprints and an IS are a tough start. The noteable climb is that to Yunquera (3.1km @5.9%). After that though its downhill to the coast. Then things get a bit lump through Malaga and beyond. It could the sprinters under pressure and allow a break to stay clear. The finish is just off the coast in Velez Malaga. Its not the best finish with a 90 right just before the line.
Stage 5: Nerja - Cuesta del Ciero
The final day is the hardest. The race begins in the coastal town of Nerja. It heads west along the coast, cutting in-land past Velez Malaga. The first climb is Los Claros (4km @6.5%) about 1/4 of the way into the stage. Around halfway the race tackles the Loma des Granados (5.8km @8.7%). Third up is a rise to Sedella (1.3km @14%) which will seriously hurt the legs. An interupted decent drops down to the base of the Collado del Meli (2.2km @7.7%). Its a long unsettled climb over the hill before dropping down, over a steep bump, and onto the coast. A tight switchback can only mean pain is ahead. The final 10km are all uphill, even if the final climb is only classed as 7.8km long. The Cuesta del Ciero is 7.8km at 13.8%, with sections up to 24%. Its sure to provide fireworks as the GC is decided. The final roads are even dirt, just in case it was too easy!

Note: There are some graphical errors. Broken cities mostly. Also there is one odd water feature. I was testing to see if a dam was possible... Also stage 4 i forgot to add most towns, so you better like forest

Amgen Tour of California
2009/Fantasy Variant
Stages 1-3
I think this was supposed to be the 2009 route. Then i forgot so the sprints are in odd places, so its half '09 and half fantasy 
Stage 1: Sacremento ITT
The race begins in the North with a short Prologue in Sacremento city center. Its pan flat, with a few tight turns. Perfect for the specialists to win.
Note: There is no city. No matter what i did i couldn't get cities to work, it just crashed.
Stage 2: Davis - Santa Rosa
The race moves out of Davis to start the day. Big roads through fields to begin with are perfect to let the break get away. After that its into the hills. A few climbs and bumpy roads fill out the day until about halfway. Thats when the race will tackle Pope Canyon Road (0.9km @8.9%) a short but steep ramp. They will then wind to the days major climb Howell Mountain Road (3.5k @10.3%). As the riders enter the final quarter they will climb over Calistoga Road (2.7km @7%). A few bumps on the way down to Santa Rosa. There the race will cover two laps around Santa Rosa before ending in a sprint finish.
Stage 3: Sausalito - Santa Cruz
The race starts in Sausalito. Then crosses the Golden Gate Bridge and on into San Francisco. The peloton will ride along the coast for almost the whole day. They cut inland to tackle the Moreno Sierra (9.4km @6.8%). Its a decent and back onto the coast road. Then cutting inland again to tackle the Pine Flat Road (11.3km @5.9%), which is anything but flat. Then is a fast drop down to the finish in Santa Cruz.

There are a couple of tiny graphical errors relating the cities... But nothing much.

Amgen Tour of California
2009/Fantasy Variant
Stages 4-9
The last stage really gets more fantasy than '09.
Also you may think why is the AToC 9 stages? Well Stage 1 (Sacramento ITT) is a prologue, thus making 9 stages. The download below includes all 8 road stages but not the Sacramento ITT.
Stage 4: San Jose - Modesto
Starting in the large city of San Jose the race almost instantly goes skywards with all the climbing in the first third of the day. The Sierra Road is the days largest obstacle (5.4km @10.3%). Then its the short rise of Vallecitos Road (1.4km @5.2%). The final climb is Patterson Pass Road (1.3km @8.4%). From there it is flat to the finish. The roads are straight and wide. Perfect for a fast mass sprint, and some wind related splits in Modesto.
Stage 5: Merced - Clovis
Beginning the day in Merced. The race heads off up into the mountains. The first climb is Catheys Mountain (3.2km @5.8%). The race winds and loops through the mountains going over the Golden Chain Highway (2.7km @5.8%). Then its a hop up Wild Cat Mountain (2.3km @7.5%). Then onwards and up to Elliott Corner (3.1km) @7.1%). The final climb is that of Goat Mountain (7.2km @5.5%). Over the summit and then its a long decent over the back half of the stage. The race eventually drops down into the town of Clovis for a nice simple sprint finish.
Stage 6: Visalia - Paso Robles
The longest day starts in the small town of Visalia. The race heads out on big, wide, flat roads. After two thirds of the day the road finally goes up. A couple of small climbs in the final phase of the stage may put some riders into trouble, but not many. Its then a downhill run into Paso Robles for a simple sprint finish.
Stage 7: Solvang ITT
The infamous Solvang ITT, in one of its iterations. Just under 25km to tackle alone. A ramp or two to trouble the riders but a fairly flat route that will go to a specialist in the discipline. The route heads north of Solvang, then doubles back over a small climb.
Stage 8: Santa Clarita - Pasadena
Starting out in Santa Clarita the race initially heads north. It then winds its way up and back round south. Its a deceptive day with a decent amount of climbing. The first, and biggest climb, is that of Angeles Forest Highway (7.3km @5.9%). Then as we enter the final third its up to Clear Creek Junction (2.3km @6.3%). The race then drops down fast into the Pasadena area. The peloton will then tackle three laps of a small circuit including Lida Street (1km @8.7km) just to keep things interesting. Then its round and down to, probably, a reduce group sprint in Pasadena proper.
Stage 9: Rancho Bernardo - Escondido
For the final stage we begin in the small town of Rancho Bernando. The race then goes out north over a couple of bumps, one of which is Lake Wholford (2.8km @7.3%). After passing through an IS the race eventually turns up and east. The peloton scale the full height of Palomar Mountain (14.4km @9%) which has some vicious ramps near the top. The descend along the ridge road and back round to tackle the upper half all over again (7.1km @11.2%). So back round the descent and all the way to bottom. The final climb is that of Cole Grade Road (3.6km @7.4%). Then its downhill open roads to the finish in Escondido.

Note: Some broken cities (really small), and one forested/disappeared road.
Hope you enjoy it 
I always welcome feedback.

You're really on a stage making spree at the moment - will be nice to have a 'traditional' Tour of California variant option (i.e. no mountain stage).
