Yay, the Demare world dominance has started :cool:

Certainly saved my Qatar bacon.
Other than Boonan, the rest had delivered virtually nothing.
Whole podium and nice Bernie Eisel stopping to help Cav has boosted
the haul to something approaching respectabilty.
Had expected +500 points from this race, but in the end have to settle for
400 ish.

CQmanager seems to have listed last year's teams. Hence the "???" next to his name. I have the same issue with Moyano.

To get accurate CQ value for 2011, I had to use the last 2011 download provided by the CQ website. Whatever team value was associated with the rider in that download has been copied into our database. As I promised earlier, I will update riders, typos and other errors in next few days.

More to come ...

Yup, 60 to 80 pts for 2nd or 3rd on GC compared with 10th, plus a top 5 from that stage. Bit depressing, but promising to see him doing well as will hopefully get more opportunities to ride for himself now.
 
Guillaume Boivin takes 2nd in the 2nd stage of Tour Méditerranéen. He was one of the first riders I put on my longlist already in mid 2011 and while he was fairly sure to be profitable at a cost of 14 he was still a risk but this makes me feel more safe.

SpiderTech seem to have a nice race programme as well - this is a very good start - he may be on the way to 100-250 points. I also have Raymond Kreder doing well at tour of med.

Did you consider Boily as well ingsve?

So in the result of two disappointing week-long races Mark Renshaw has paid off about 1/3 of his CQ cost. Just saying.
 
Qatar was good for me I think, with Boonen, Flecha, Steegmans (and also Van Keirsbulck / Ignatiev take some points).

And a big thanks for all the work for the CQ Manager site. It's fantastic! Very small remark: when you go to the team pages, you see: "Matching Riders on Ohter Teams"

No, not really. I didn't want to have more than one rider from a single ProConti team since their schedules are often rather uncertain and that makes it more of a gamble since you don't know if both riders will get a good race schedule or not.

I've not been on herw in ages man I've missed it. My team hasn't started too well. Have i misses anything?

You got a stage-win today thanks to Michel Kreder.

Anyway I am very much looking forward to following Tobias Ludvigsson this coming year; hopefully he will bring you a lot of joy!

Erm, he was team leader in Qatar as last year.

So? Of course he was, but after it he came back to his domestique duties and didn't stand a chance to maintain that dynamics (of gaining CQ points) further into the season. He was involved in Tirreno sprints only because Cav got dropped everytime. If i'm not mistaken the next opportunity was Tour of Britain...

Yeah I notified that. 2 guys I don't think most people will have. Although I can't be sure as I've been unable to keep up to date the last couple of months so haven't had a chance to check out other peoples teams actually I'm not even sure how too.

I presume he's positive now (can't get CQ to load). Nice to have your choice validated like that.
