now that justin is back is there an idea of when the transfer period will end. Just curious because i can't wait for the season to begin.

The season will take a while to begin, cos I'm back to school on Tuesday, and that comes first. Then second, and then third. Then another 100 things go before this - some time next week we'll finish

I actually like everyone ive bought, but that guy was the best climber Letua had originally so i thought I had best keep him. Ive got 1 or 2 75+ mo guys now so he's not needed.

SPRINTERS!!!
I dunno, with Cav I think you have a better side.
I have Goss 80, Haedo 79, Pedersen 78, Van Heerden 78 - but not at all a side to contest the Carrefour masters of sprint. Btw. where have doddy been in the transfer period? Away? |

OK- Can someone explain the potential stat and the Explosion stat? I was bidding based on stats, and think I have a great team, but all you guys ever talk about is potential.
I have several riders I think were good grabs. I have not spent over 100k except on Perez Rodriguez, Voigt and Vandenbroeke, and I love the stats of the team, but most are potentials of 5. Am I screwed?

No, not at all. Chances are they won't improve and become better riders, but if you have riders with very fine stats it doesn't matter much. And they are nice CT-additions anyway.
I've based my team on talents - that'll meen I'll battle to stay in the ProTour this season, and next season I'll have a quite fine team, I think. |

my best sprinters are Napolitano (79SP), Cav (80SP) and Freire (82SP)B)

Im very much planning for next season, and not the seasons ahead - sort of an anti-balaverde.
my riders are old, but i have loads and loads of good GC riders, and some very good puncheurs.
Im defintely in the market for a sprinter, now Cavendish has left us (again, I plan for next season, not when he will eventually be good!)

i would like to say as well, that Simoni was still a good buy for zutcorp as he has decreased in stats very little (only 1 in MO f.e.) and will still do very well in GC's and could very well win the TdF, after all Moreau won it last year
but the Giro is Gibo's race really, but it's all zutcorp's choice for next season

- Aivaras Baranauskas
- Thomas Fothen
- Christian Leben
