they need to win stages and/or get very good contracts to up the mood participating in stages is not enough, except for your leader because he participates in so many stages it does have a mood up

I experimented a bit with some contracts and got some riders happy. I have to pay them a lot now (even with a garantee of 15 races and all bonuses, I'm counting on the fact that I hardly win a race or a jersey), so they better get me some decent results now, or they will have an angry manager .

Pay attention if you gave 15 races to riders that didn't race that number because we only have more 3 races left. If they don't ride that nunber they break contract and will be free riders.

Off course I had taken into account the races they already did this season. But thanks for the warning. My 3 happy riders (I attacked on the first 3 points with all of them) ended on 12, 17 and 18. Off course they attacked 2 times less then some others, and it's not that they have the perfect skills. What I found strange about this race: - some cyclists already attacked in part 3 where the attackpoint is in part 4? - after part 3: 1. Olaru 1 00:19:43 2. Dolhen 1 00:19:433. Nuyttens 1 00:19:43 4. Mateescu 1 00:19:43 5. Anzillotti 1 00:19:43 6. Pag 1 00:19:43 7. Gazeau 1 00:19:43 8. Diamond 1 00:19:43 9. Abramian 1 00:19:4310. Fraiteur 2 00:20:02 11. Vanderwaeren 2 00:20:02 12. Chnier 2 00:20:02 13. Ackaert 2 00:20:02 14. Fraga 2 00:20:02 15. Habay 2 00:20:02 16. Beyz 2 00:20:02 Viewing this, I hoped Dolhen was one of the better flat riders. after part 4 (where they both attacked; flat 0% 42km): 1. Nuyttens 1 01:15:01 2. Olaru 2 01:16:07 3. Gazeau 2 01:16:07 4. Mateescu 2 01:16:07 5. Pag 2 01:16:07 6. Fraiteur 3 01:16:16 7. Ragar 4 01:16:40 8. Chnier 4 01:16:40 9. Ackaert 4 01:16:40 10. Fraga 4 01:16:40 11. Habay 4 01:16:40 12. Beyz 4 01:16:40 13. Vanderwaeren 4 01:16:40 14. Anzillotti 4 01:16:40 15. Dolhen 4 01:16:40 16. Abramian 4 01:16:40They attacked succesfully, but not only thid they both fail to follow the rest, they were even catched up by riders from a group behind (don't know if it's a coincidence, but it's those who attacked already in part 3). Dolhen has next skills: FL 13; SP 7; TT 8 (I assume those are the only skills who matter in that part). Can it be he had to stick with Abramian (FL 7; SP 7; TT 8) and the average of their skills was taken into account or something?

When attacking, the average of all your riders attacking on that point is used for the result.

Hello, first time in 2nd division, so I don't really know what to expect. Personal goals for the season: 1) don't go bankrupt 2) fight for 8th position I guess after 1 week I will have an idea if they are achievable or not. Good luck to everyone! I ended 7th, so I guess I should be content. For the moment, I haven't been able to inforce my team, so I don't see me ending closer next season. Congrats to Nightbiker (curious to see how he will do in 1st division) and punkska! Thanx bam for the weekly summaries!

Off course, mostly my 2 attackers have about the same skills. On the first attack point that didn't happen? That is something new. And in my opinion wrong. It's only the skills of your attacker that count. Sprint, TT and the terrainskill. Sprint and terrainskill to get away, TT to stay away. Congratz with your stay in 2nd Div. Congratz to the promotion teams Nightbiker and Husker Du and for the relegation teams we'll meet again in 3rdDiv.

Congratz to Nightbiker for an impressive season. punkska and I score together only 500 points more than him... Also congratz to punkska for his promotion. Maybe next time with relegating you will come to your beloved 2:2 I wish shiraz, chakra and sforsato good luck next season in third division and hope to see you back in the season after that.

Congratz to the promotion teams Nightbiker and Husker Du and for the relegation teams we'll meet again in 3rdDiv. I'm not sure either if it works by average. In yesterday's race for example my 2 attackers come into different groups at the first attacking point. Guess that shouldn't be the case when we take the average.

Ended 5th, a place less then last season, but happy with 5th! Only one victory, in the tour, where a layed a base for the polka jersey. And two yellow jerseys, one with the allmighty Smiling and the younger Gommeren I hope my riders can be able to win some stages in 2nd division next season But most off all, i have to maintain my finances... But the plan is to get some nice 18 year old riders with my youthscout and then fire the money-eating bastard ? Congratz to nightbiker and husker, i hope the next 2 from division 1 will not be so hard and that top 2 or top 3 will be an option (perhaps i have to sell some off my less riders and save for a great one...)
