Btw those dairyland stages are really short... look like colombian races... not for pro riders... anyway great reports... keep going like this, youre doing great...
This race is part of the US National criterium calendar irl, so that's why they are so short can't agree with baia about the gameplay though. Imo, those criteriums work quite well. Problem here may be the startlist, which is often the main reason for PCM to show horrible gameplay

Well, you might be right... 
Pearl Izumi races were with only 50 riders, awfull gameplay, if a rider would attack, he would have won with more then 10minutes.. Jamis made the pace in all stages so that we had mass sprint.. Dairyland are 180 or something riders, little different gameplay indeed but if we let the break go, then they will make it until the end, like in this last stage... we had to go with Mooney and Romero, if not, then my riders would have lost more then those 3minutes..

NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS ROAD
We join the race with only 1,5kms to go and with  P.Mooney riding solo after a successfull attack...
... but he rides behind  D.Pate which attacked too and wins the race..
Race Top10 / Results
 L.Duque(COL),  J.Arredondo(PPO) and  D.Ochoa(CO4) attack at the start..
Later on, the break rides with 21´45"gap.. this still before the first hill..  J.Acevedo launches his first attack.. Fail.. the pack brings him back.
Peloton reach the first hill.. Janier has to work if he wants to reduce the gap wich is now 23´10"..
Still on that first hill, Janier attacks again... Fail.. peloton brings him back again..
Sunday ride it is then.. 89kms to go, 23´23"gap..
 Acevedo keeps leading the pack.. we need to get rid of them, but how?
80kms.. Janier attacks again.. is it now?
No.. peloton brings him back again.. we will wait for the biggest climb then..
So, there we are.. peloton rides the most dificult climb now,  J.Acevedo attacks.... again...
.. but once more, the pack chases him and brings him back..
45kms to go, 21´55"gap.. the pack finally starts to raise the pace.. too late but better now as never.. right?
At the front, the breakaway starts their last 20kms..  J.Arredondo attacks..
[img]Behind, something wich we saw all the race happens again..  J.Acevedo attacks with 25kms to go..18´08"gap.. this time,  C.Betancur(ALM),  S.Henao(SKY) and  N.Quintana(MOV) go with him..[/img]
 J.Arredondo reach the finish line..
With 5kms to go for the others,  C.Betancur drops Henao.. Quintana and Acevedo ride behind..
Totally desiluded,  J.Acevedo crosses the finish line as 7th..

Well, Betancur, Quintana and Henao weren't the best choise to share an attack... they're way ahead of Janis skills... but hey, he'll improve and beat them some day...
That breakaway... it always happens to me but I never let them go that far... but I play with a colombian team, so I can make a better chase... also, I have 8 colombian teams, so its a bigger peloton in my game you did you're best...

kadtagenero - What could Acevedo do in that situation?.. 1 man against the rest, mission impossible.. Jamis would not have let the break go if we had more riders.. i´m happa that Acevedo was able to attack several times and hang on in last kms.. 
*welker3257 - Funny thing was i thought Mooney was in first.. .. only in the final sprint i saw E1 was another rider..

And Ben rode well at the Beaumont trophy too  |

Solid new additions to your roster, something that I like Bookwalter definitely has the skills to surprise in some minor races with his good mix of flat, mountain and TT skills.
