And like you've probably read on the last page the idea wasnt completly mine, I lent Ian Butlers (because I love his idea) and did some changes to it, going to do some more changes cause ppl thinks it still looks to much like it

I think you're doing a great job. The riders are completely different, and I don't claim to have invented a two-rider story. So keep going like you are, I like it a lot Good to see both riders going to Tour de France! |

Sorry for no pictures on this one, but my computer refused to save the screenshots, so sorry about that 
Vuelta a Mallorca Stage 2
 Iban Gonzalez
In this stage I wanted to try and get in a breakaway and take the points on the KoM jersey, I asked our manager and he said that I could try, but that if I didnt come in the breakaway the 1st atempt, then I should just go to the peleton and help the team.
My legs feel good so I think I can do this!
I tried, and I did it!
In the intermedite sprints they kept driving me off so I used alot energy to get up, so I couldnt do anything there except rest..
Sadly, we got catched before the mountain sprints so I took an easy ride to the finish
 Carlos Guevara
I didnt really have the energy nor legs to do anything today, so I took an easy day, getting water bottles.
I helped Urtasun a little in the sprint, he did a good sprint, but Cardoso was to strong and beated everyone!
Results
| 1 | Manuel Cardoso | Caja Rural | 3h59'04'' | | 2 | André Greipel | Lotto Belisol Team | s.t. | | 3 | Assan Bazayev | Astana Pro Team | s.t. | | 4 | Julien Simon | Saur - Sojasun | s.t. | | 5 | Pablo Urtasun | Euskaltel - Euskadi | s.t. | | | 6 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky Procycling | s.t. | | 7 | Sonny Colbrelli | Colnago - CSF Inox | s.t. | | 8 | Mark Cavendish | Sky Procycling | s.t. | | 9 | Francisco José Ventoso | Movistar team | s.t. | | 10 | José Joaquin Rojas | Movistar team | s.t. | | (...) | | 58 | Carlos Guevara | Euskaltel - Euskadi | s.t. | | (...) | | 193 | Iban Gonzalez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | + 4'34'' | |

Good luck with the story, going well so far. And it's not copying in my opinion, because a two-riderstory is not some new thing . It's just an option, you can do a threeriderstory aswell. It's all about how you make the reports, that's the only important thing for stories. |

Vuelta a Mallorca - Stage 3
Carlos Guevara
"After the 2nd stage of the 2012 Vuelta a Mallorca, Carlos Guevara of Euskaltel - Euskadi withdrawed, after being at the doctor because of some really bad stomach issues, more details will come tomorrow"
- Euskaltel - Euskadi's press-respondible
Iban Gonzalez
I got a little sad when I got the message about that Carlos had withdrawed, but I said to myself that I just had to continue like nothing had happened; Having my mind on helping out the team!
I decided to join the breakaway today aswell, to get some points on the mountains jersey! As I didnt get any yesterday, but todays mountains arent as late as the ones from yesterday!
I didnt have the energy to win the first to mountain sprints, but I won the 3rd and was so happy!
My captain, Samuel Sanchez said on the Radio that he had the legs and felt that he could win this stage, so on the 3rd last hill he attacked, and before you knew the word of it; He was at my group and I was now going to be a helprider, I was perfectly ok with
I couldnt do much but hanged onto him after we got away from the group, With 20 km left to go, Sanchez attacked and got a BIG gap. He fought hard and took the victory! Congrats!
Results
| 1 | Samuel Sánchez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | 4h03'51'' | | | 2 | Luis León Sánchez | Rabobank Cycling Team | + 1'30 | | 3 | Rui Coasta | Movistar Team | s.t | | 4 | JoaquÃm RodrÃguez | Katusha Team | s.t. | | 5 | John Gadret | AG2R La Mondiale | s.t | | 6 | Roman Kreuziger | Astana Pro Team | s.t. | | 7 | Daniel Navarro | Team Saxo Bank - Tinkoff Bank | s.t. | | 8 | Manuel Cardoso | Caja Rural | + 2'15'' | | 9 | Michel Kreder | Garmin - Sharp | s.t. | | 10 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky Procycling | s.t. | | (...) | | 49 | Iban Gonzalez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | + 4'49'' | |
RIP Wouter Weylandt, Xavier Tondo, Victor Cabedo.

Vuelta a Mallorca - Stage 4 (Final stage)
Carlos Guevara
My stomach issues is still pretty bad, but it's getting a little better I'll be back soon!
Iban Gonzalez
Today is going to be a day with just helping Samuel Sánchez keeping his Leaders jersey, which means; Keep the breakaway away from getting to the finishline before us, getting water bottles etc. Hopefully I'll do a good job See you in the race.
This is what I've done most of this stage:
Alot of tension on this stage, Gil fell here:
Navarro who's 1'40'' behind attacked and Sánchez didn't want to take any risks so he followd
He got catched by the peleton, but kept following the peleton to the finish, but L.L Sánchez was to strong and attacked, but Samuel kept the Jersey with 0'03''
Results
| 1 | Luis León Sánchez | Rabobank Cycling Team | 4h12'11'' | | | 2 | JoaquÃum RodrÃguez | Katusha Team | +0'38'' | | 3 | Rui Costa | Movistar Team | s.t | | 4 | Daniel Navarro | Team Saxo Bank - Tinkoff Bank | s.t. | | 5 | Roman Kreuziger | Astana Pro Team | s.t. | | 6 | Pablo Urtasun | Euskatel - Euskadi | s.t. | | 7 | John Gadret | AG2R La Mondiale | s.t | | 8 | Alejandro Valverde | Movistar Team | s.t. | | 9 | Jens Voigt | RadioShack - Nissan | +1'21'' | | 10 | Michel Kreder | Garmin - Sharp | | (...) | | 52 | Iban Gonzalez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | + 6'22'' | |
Overall Results:
| 1 | Samuel Sánchez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | 14h48'33'' | | | 2 | Luis León Sánchez | Rabobank Cycling Team | + 0'03'' | | 3 | Rui Costa | Movistar Team | +0'49'' | | 4 | JoaqÃum RodrÃguez | Katusha Team | +0'51'' | | 5 | John Gadret | AG2R La Mondiale | +0'57'' | | 6 | Roman Kreuziger | Astana Pro Team | s.t. | | 7 | Daniel Navarro | Team Saxo Bank - Tinkoff Bank | s.t. | | 8 | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky Procycling | +2'21'' | | 9 | Michel Kreder | Garmin - Sharp | +2'25'' | | 10 | Pablo Urtasun | Euskaltel - Euskadi | +4'16'' | | (...) | | 48 | Iban Gonzalez | Euskaltel - Euskadi | +14'14'' |
Not the best result in a tour like this, but a good one for being my first professional race
Next race is: Vuelta a la Región de Murcia
