Yes, I'm back in my division 3.6! Good that I never changed my location. Good to be with rarau for another season.
Well, I'm not happy with the in-game-forum. I'd rather see used this proboard forum here.
I wish you all a pleasant time in divison 3.6. And I hope that you'll all stay in the game! At the moment we've got only one bot in the division. I hope I can say the same at the end of the season.

Yes, today is the day! Season starts with Vuelta al Tachira en Bicicleta in Venezuela and 10 teams have submitted their tactics. But that means too, that 4 non-bot-managers are still missing!
How about a little "interview" about the new season with each manager? Here are some questions. Fellow division mates: Feel free to answer them and to tell us something about your team and your motivation.
Question 1 - About your team name
What's your team's name? Is there a story behind this chosen name? ...
Question 2 - About your goals for season 5
What are your aims for this season? Do you want to promote to division 2? Do you just want to develop some young and promising cylists? Do you just want to consolidate your finances? ...
Question 3 - About training
What's your training focus for this season? What's the skill of your best cyclist in this skill? How long are you going to stick to that skill? What's your training plans in the mid and long term? ...
Question 4 - About bragging
Whats the highest transfer value of your cyclists? What's the highest wage? What's your best steering/balance combo? How many points/wins has your best cyclist earned so far? ...
Question 5 - About your real life
What are you doing? How old are you? Do you do cycling in RL? ...
Question 6 - About anything else
Is there anything else you'd like to share?

I guess I have to precede: Question 1 - About your team nameMy team is Bolt Thrower. Indeed that's nothing to do with cycling. I'm active in the basketball manager Charazay and had to name my basketball team there. So I was thinking that throwing is surely the thing you've got to do in basketball. And so I was thinking that I could name my team after the best death metal band at all - comes to that: If you ever go into death metal you can go directly to the non-plus-ultra in death metal - of course speaking of Bolt Thrower Question 2 - About your goals for season 5I'm planning long term. I'd like to develop some of my most promising cyclists. Of course I'll gladly take every win that I can grab. Question 3 - About trainingI'm a flat trainer since the beginning. My best flat cyclists are still only with skill 10 - I guess I'll stick to flat for the whole season. Perhaps I should change to sprint soon. I guess a flat 12 and sprint >7 could grab the one or the other win. Question 4 - About braggingMy highest transfer value is only $ 562826. Unfortunately I have to pay him $13390 week after week. One of my cyclists has 17 wins. And I have a cyclist with 19 steering/20 balance. Question 5 - About your real lifeI'm 43 and I'm working as a software engineer in a quite big company. I've got 3 kids < 10 years and hence only scarce spare time. So I'm writing mostly from my job ;-) - due to my biblical age my bones and tendons are aching ever worse when playing football (still my favourite sport in spite of the pain involved with it) - so when my brother-in-law wanted to get rid off his bike I grapped the occasion. I started cycling quite exactly one year ago. But I only did 750 km - see scarce spare time. Question 6 - About anything elseI wish you all good luck in Peloton and in real life!

Nice to see that there are some people from the forum in this division. Question 1 - About your team name Robbin's Ryders, just because my name is Robbin Question 2 - About your goals for season 5 I do not have goals yet. Probably surviving and making my team better. Question 3 - About training I'm training Sprint and mountain , but this will probably be to expensive. What do you say?? Question 4 - About bragging I don't think I have anything to brag in this competition highest transfervalue in my team is: 411,295 Question 5 - About your real life In reallife I'm a history student in Holland. I study in Utrecht @ the University of Utrecht. Biggest hobby is playing music. Mostly guitar but also drums, bass, piano, organ etc. I play in a (blues)rock band named Morning Sun ( http://www.morningsun.nl) Do not cycle, but play football Question 6 - About anything else I hope this will be a fun season

Last season I earned lots of money, so I thought maybe it's a good idea. In 5 weeks his skill will go down, so I'm waiting on that to happen

rarau: Yes, I went to Moscow by airplane. Then 5 days in train till Mongolia, stayed there 5 days and then another 30 hours train till Beijing. Beautiful scenery. Spent time in Beijing/China too. Beautiful country The Orient Express looks very nice, but 7000+ euros for 6 days That's insane I was planning to take an interrail ticket. I'm not sure how long I will travel, that will depend on the time I have At least I want to see most capitals like Budapest, Bucarest, Sofia, Istanbul/Athens and some of the former Yugoslavia countries. And then perhaps see some extra highlights of countries.

Till Greece i dont think you could go with trains.
Now i think is not anymore a train betwwen Romania and Istanbul, they do some reparation this days on Turkey. Maybe in 1-2 years will be again a train bettween Romania/Bulgary and Turkey.
So Wien-Budapest-Oradea-Cluj-Brasov-Bucharest (all this 4 cities are nice for visit), not use Ister or Dacia who go from Budapest to Arad - Sighisoara-Brasov-Bucharest. Use better Corona from Budapest-Cluj-Brasov. You could visit Brasov and next day to go to Bucharest.
From Bucharest we have train to Moskow, Kiew, Chisineu, Sofia and maybe again to Instanbul.
Sofia have trains to ex former Yugoslavia i think. We have also in the past with Belgrad but this days is not anymore , only if you change at Timisoara I think.
---- you need at least 5 days. Maybe you will see on forums to go with Ister but be sure Corona is far better (my oppinion). Ister, Dacia are made by romanian company, have luxurios conditions, especially on first class beds. But could have some delays (30-90 min). Corona is made my MAV (hungarians) . Corona is only till Brasov but is going on other parts of Romania . You could see on a train map. We have offers like Budapest-Brasov 19 euros , Budapest-Bucharest 29 euro. Don't use the trains that go from Arad to Craiova and then Bucharest.
