Not saying: "He is showing them how to ride a bike". Not interviewing Gianetti at the finish and saying how amazing everything is. Don't give such a manager the light of day, no interviews with him. Instead mention the tainted past of the team. Sponsors will then think twice before paying such...

I am afraid Pogacar is like Indurain. Never caught but obviously on some sauce but still well regarded. Hopefully something is done about Pogacar as it is ridiculous but I am afraid that won't happen. Personally I can't take the press and commentators anymore with statements 'best period in...

He was supposedly cooked. He was still gaining time on everyone except MVDP (PR) and Evenepoel/Skjelmose (AGR). That's not being cooked.

I don't understand cycling nowadays. Everything is power and it is in finite supply. That's why we saw measured riding, trains and accelerations only at the end. That made sense. We also saw differences between classics riders and GC riders. That's all out of the window. In a field that is...

And he was an accident, I thought I picked Magnier! Confused the two somehow when picking riders.

Uijtebroeks stating he is suffering from same problem as last year. No power in the legs. They thought they fixed it but... No. My team, already low in rankings, is receiving more and more hits.

Only now see I accidentally picked Lamperti instead of Magnier. Oops! Was happy with results until I realized my blunder. Doing it in a hurry without double checking, ouch.

For the fans, teams are all online @ https://www.savius.at/CQGame/cqgame.php?GameId=2 Similarity of teams @ https://www.savius.at/CQGame/cqgame.php?page=RandomStats&GameId=2 as well as the most popular riders. https://www.savius.at/CQGame/cqgame.php?page=ComboSearch&GameId=2 for finding...

Definitely robbed with regards to Ganna! I am happy he went for it to get CQ Points but UCI robs us all.

Good stuff @Armchair Cyclist Website is: https://www.savius.at/CQGame/cqgame.php Only works for people that have logged in (through Google so I don't need to mess with passwords): https://www.savius.at/CQGame/cqgame.php?page=AddTeam You can also access it through 'My Profile' which appears...

Curious for feedback then on Team Creation. Will tell me if I should spend time on it or not (if excel is prepared). Not finished yet (you can't save) and will be after login once you can save to make sure it doesn't end up with a lot of spam (as the internet is infested with bots)...

It's now possible to claim your team after you sign-up through google (so I don't need to mess with passwords etc.). Afterwards, still to be put live, you can create teams for upcoming games.

We briefly talked about this already but for everyone: I'll make a team creation page on the website. Then there won't be any issues with changing names etc. Teams will not be visible to anyone else until after first of March (except to Armchair Cyclist). I'll also join the game and will be the...

Probably only entertaining myself but... While not implemented throughout yet but now support for multiple games for main ranking at least: https://www.savius.at/CQGame/cqgame.php?page=Ranking&GameId=4 Direct link shows last years game result. Changing top right hand drop down box you can...

Thought one player, rufs, had Jack Burke. Jack who now is on training camp with IPT (who have no places). However, just before deadline he removed him for another rider. That I missed initially so was looking for who had Burke but couldnt find it. Would have been a great story if he had made it...
