Allready in the second week and still no topic for this division.
I'm back in second div after 1 season in 3th. Probably it will be again for only one season. My team is probably still too weak for 2.2, although I'm 9th for the moment and the differences at the bak arn't that big.
Good luck to all

I already noticed it too. Altough this is a very strong divisioen, it isn't one with managers who like to discuss about the game on the forum.
My goals are simply and clear. Develop my team earn some money and points to stay in. I expect to succeed in that. For promotion this is a very boring division I guess. Gonzalez and Rats are, by far, the best teams. I expect the MOI to finish higher than the current 8th position, Asa Fun is too good for the teams who want to avoid relegation, Naspa has a few really good riders who will give him enough points (but he seriously has way too much riders) which means that in my opinio the three relegation spots will be a fight between Bergtoppen, Heroes, Joachim1107, Trapper123 and maybe even Melres United.
What do other people think? And what are your goals?

Naspa will finish between 4 and 8 -> i told him from last season that he have too much cyclists

Not going to make Evcont's mistake too Today one of my better second generation riders goes full speed. Very curious how much time he has to conceed to the winner.

The first races haven't worked out so well for me so far, but I keep aiming for my original goals (top 5 + financial health + training some talented youngsters). It won't be easy to achieve this objectives 'cause there are some strong new teams (Rats, Naspa) in the 2:2 div, and the "old" teams seem to be at least as strong as last season My expectaions: 1.Gonzalez 2.Kasseienstoempers 3.Rats 4.Naspa 5.MOI 6.ASA FUN 7.Melres United 8.Trapper123 9.Joachim 10.Heroes 11.Bergtoppen 12.Nightbiker Off course it's difficult to predict anything so early in the season Good luck to you all!

I don't have nothing planned for this season, I will try to win some races.
I will try to fight for ITT with Tirlea because seems he took advantage related to best TT rider of the division Andreoli.
I also have Naz to fight for GC in grand tours.
I hope Nistor could fight for some hill stage also.
For U21 I have a good TT rider but with only one TT to test, also a good mountain rider.
So probably I will end between 7th and 10th.

Still big differences between first and second generation riders. I also have some good second gen, but they cannot bring in big points in this division

Yes, at first a little dissapointed, but Brognoli still lacks sprintskill. His flat and hill are already on toplevel. Working on his TT skill now, but sprint 4 is not enough to make it into the first group. And the big time difference comes because of the great riders in the first group. It also depends a little on the decrease of the old riders. I don't have a 37 yo. How fast are they decreasing?

To my opinion my team is overestimated and Bergtoppen and Joachims teams might be tougher than estimated.
I have older riders that are not trained so much and my new generation is not as far as Ab's. I have kept track on other teams in div 3 last year. Lucero has the best riders, but the other promoted teams in our division are not far off.
Btw, until now my big team strategy worked fine. However, I feel after one week in 2:2 the need to downsize. And of course Rarau told me what to do, but then again, he has even more riders than me.

I've been in this division before, Always degradate back to 3th. Although I have a better team now then 2 seasons ago. But for the moment I'm still low on points. The following weeks there are some races that suit me, we'll see then
