Out of interest, does anybody know if there is a way of editing the maximum cash when selecting a custom team? At the moment the max is (I think) about 650,000 Euros, which while a lot, still limits the number of good riders you can select. |

doh! should really have spotted that!
Anyway, I voted for custom team, as I like the idea of getting wild cards to the grand tours, without having to ride some of the mandatory Pro Tour races! If you pick your riders carefully, you can get 4 or 5 very good stage racers, plus a load of dross that you offload at the end of the 1st season  |

If a custom team wins I think I will probably pick baltics. But my only concern is that there might not be enough riders from baltic areas to create a whole team. I think the 1-2 russians idea could work though.

Custom team, and if so, Baltics with russian. There you could get a quite good team with good youngsters (Ignatiev, Taramee, Konovalovas. etc.)  |

Yes I have decided that if custom team wins I will do baltics with russians.
P.S if anyone has any good baltic/russian names please post so I can get some ideas |

I thin there are over 15 baltic riders in the PCM Daily expansion pack, PPDB Giant probably has a more. If you need a couple more rider then i´d say having finnish or swedish riders would be more realistic. Baltic teams (Estonian in particular) are not prone to signing russian cyclists.

I may extend the date of the poll because I would really like the new PCM daily database to be used on my story so the poll end date may change depending on when the realese date is. |

I have made a jersey for a Lithuanian custom team called Air Lithuania (Aviakompanija Lietuva) so you could use that if you want to  |

You can persuade! I vote for Custom team. If you will have three or more russians in team (and especially Alexander Khatuntsev) I could make you jersey

How about resurrecting one of the old 80s teams?
