[Division 4] Good luck
Fellow-managers,
We, from the management of the Zatarra Cycling Team, want to wish you all the best luck in the new division! ZTC joined division 4:12 with above all Slikheksen, from manager Aap and Pinball Wizards from manager VeryRisky. It will be a tough game this season, but we'll manager to earn some money!
We won't release our new training plans yet. We're discussing it internally and obviously there's a lot to discuss yet! With only one flat trainer and 6 mountain trainers in this division we might consider to change the way of training. Again, we're still discussing it, but we're not ready for the season yet!
We wish you all good luck in this new season and hopefully it will be a season with a lot of effort for a lot of you!
We hope to see you soon!

Cosmin Chisca from Zatarra Cycling Team is the best ... ;D

Haha, yes! He's a great cyclist and he was very very very expensive (the most expensive one in The Netherlands). I'm training him at mountain (after one training he popped to 1 already :-P), so maybe he can cycle some great smaller tours and maybe even the Tour the France . So, you're supporting me in this division? xD

Four managers have entered Paris-Nice so far. I wonder if we will have a full race or not?

We have all 8 in for the race so with the bots it will be 80 riders at the sign-in.

I'm happy with the start though there are a lot of riders at +1min that will be gaining time on Thursday.

Chisca did what he was told to do! He won the second stage and all the sprint, gaining 27k for the team. Unfortunately Grundman (from Yandamo) has a lag of only 1 point in the pointclassification, so I'm afraid Chisca won't win that one. Pinball Wizard and Sliksheksen probably have way better climbers for the last stage on Friday, but hopefully Frinsel can ride top 10 too. Berthon and Chatelle probably can't make it to that top 10, but maybe the can climb some places in the General Classification. It's an interesting division, but I'm afraid ZTC can't cycle for the wins in the mountains either .

Ah I hadn't noticed Yandamo CY was training Flat. So have 1 Flat, 1 Hill and 6 Mountian.
We won't really know what's going to happen in the Moutains until we hit the Basque Country in a few weeks. I suspect it won't be at all like season 1 where a lot of divisions had one top mountian rider who took a lot of stages in the GT.

You have quite good flatriders too?! I think you have a good chance of winning this division.
In the mountain I think I'll have a lag against you and Sliksheksen. I had bad luck with the secondaries at the start. I have good allround-riders so the General Classifications in the tours are my goal, I think. We'll see, maybe my lag isn't that big :-).

I had a lot of cash left over at the end of last season so I bought a couple in to cross-train.
Surprised at the big gap today. Sure I used a bit of effort, but I expected to get hit with some more on 95-100%
