Yes, congratz Quatannens! Now everybody won a race and a jersey. Nice.
Well, concluding so far, I guess it is obvious that Franconia will win the league. A very deserved win. Great tactics by a great manager.
Droeftoeters will finish second. Everything is possible between place 3 and 7 and it will be a absolutely thrilling fight of life and dead between San Brunone, WC Bloedzak, Schizmano and Kimbainvelocipede 2 for the last spot in first division I think. Every point counts there.
I think for De Koereurs it is unfortunately over. Shame to seem you go and hope you will be back after one season.

I hope I will come back... One day... I'm wondering if I should stop training mainskill. Because one of my goals is to keep expenses as low as possible. Trainer and cyclists wages are the main thing to focus on. I hope to get some more income next season

Congrats Quatannens on Amrom's win after a very closely fought TTT today. 3 of my riders popped in leadership on the stage, so I think they had organised a few powerpoint slides and a bit of motivational paintball mid-stage rather than getting on with racing. Do you mean 3 xp pops? Because I thought only the leader gained leadership points?

Tactics set for Vuelta and that other tour (Cintur ... or something like that ). The only races where I can get some points for so far. I'm already happy I could get to 850+ points. For a long time 500 points seemed the maximum. I'm not going for the TTT in the Vuelta because I hope to get more points with a balanced squad this time. I have one man for the ITT wednesday who should go for top-3. For the rest I will look how things go :-) (I would only be mad if I get an injury tonight for one of my selected cyclists )

Everybody the best of luck for the last big tour this season.
Looks likee both belgian teams will finish bottom of the league.
I would like to avoid that, the vuelta seems my last real chance to gain some points on my competitors for the relegation spots, hopefuly it won't be as disappointing as the Tour. My averages for the vuelta : 8 - 5,8 - 8,6 - 1,8 - 5 - 7,8

The loss with 1s in the TTT is gone! Winning with some hundreds of seconds is always great! (Sorry whistler )

Pfff this season s#cks , in the first half I lost De Quint on a crucial moment because of an injury, if that did not happen he would be competing for best cyclist of the division. And now in a few days I lose my man for the Vuelta GC and his backup ... Thing is that none of them had an injury before ! Must be a curse or something edit : P.S. I had 2 other injuries in my team too, but those had only a small impact on my tactics. I was not complaining with "only" 3 injuries , it was more about who and when !

It is really frustrating if all your plans got ruined of oridinary bad luck!! Especially when your in a fight for relegation.
