Last WT race of the season added.
I will open a signup thread for the next season soon and round 2 of scouting sheets is also nearing.  |

2 in the top 6 is not too shabby at all.
- Will get the next two races up tomorrow. |

Wow, so proud of Avia at Il Lombardia.
Anyway, has round two of scouting started yet? Because I'll get my sheet in for tomorrow, I hope.

Purito with a nice finish of the season ends up #1 in World Tour Rankings. 
Nice one by Team Shell though.

Can people stop adding Belgium to their list of nations? Thanks! 
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

I seriously have no idea why people add four secondary nations of which I don't have a clue they are linked to any of the sponsors..
Anyway, Lopez is finally really strong in Indonesia. My 2nd tier climbers had to work all season long (except 1-2 races where they did not much though), but now he is taking his chances very well. Still Top10 in GC is decent, but two podiums are more than I could have asked for. Now I'm only waiting for Kristoff to perform..
By the way: In stage 1 there was just too many LA Aluminios jerseys...

Someone feel like making a jersey for good old Shonak? From the style, I'd like it to be in this direction (check spoiler), however not necessarily the same jersey of course. The U25 Team name is La Fundación and having somewhere the freedom statue of Liberty Seguros (again, check spoiler) would be a bonus, however it should not be the big logo on the jersey, more like on the sidelines or so.
Uhm, also.. will there be World Championships and how do the riders get selected (based upon individual rankings?) I take it we race Ponferrada?

You mean like adjusting the riders to their real life results? Or just that riders will develop? |

Not sure on the WC route yet, there will maybe be a voting on decide where the WCs will be. Riders get selected by the game, that's the easiest for me and managers won't get mad at others for not selecting their riders. They can't get more mad at the game then they are already.
If you won't have a jersey when the season starts I will make you one, as I did for Spanair in the first season. |

Or potential changes? Like Stuyven is really weak at the moment, but I can understand it's too late for stat updates.

The only fair way to do so would be to release the riders, then update them and try to resign them. I think about if I'll make rider updates possible.
You get another race today, Paris - Tours. Tomorrow The Rider and I'll post the last results and finish off the season, after which we'll have ~1 week of National and World Championships. Then the off season will begin, I hope it'll be as short as possible. |

That's our first season done and dusted. Disappointing end but we have to be happy with everything. Twelve wins in total and I don't have to rebuild my squad already like some do. Bring on next season.

Ollfardh - You do realize once you start a story game then real life results should have no impact, jeez!..... If you alter stats according to real life then you may as well alter the results to real life. Farfetched.
Good to see quite a few teams signed up already, will get cracking on a jersey for the whippersnappers soon!
Shonak - Not exactly as you wanted but I did find this, which you could no doubt use:
Though it would be pretty ironic if Contador leaves your team! |

I don't quite agree with that, The Rider. I can understand to sticking with the starting stats of course, I'm even going to do that with EPIC, but there are other options. One of them I already suggested, changing the potentials for riders who perform way above/below their stats. Another option is to change some stats indeed, it would make it more of a prediciton game, where you get rewarded for succesfully predicting which riders will develop.
But I'm fine with whatever Bikex decides

Thanks. I know the jersey though and would have used it if I end(ed) up with Foundacion Contador. Like you say, if someone takes away my gem it'd be rather awkward.
