I'll let you know who wins!
Who are you managing? What are you tactics?
presumably the tactics are make it as boring as hell so they get the radios back
I know that. I'm interested in SpaceJunk's race on his PC game.
i realise that. i was just being facetious. i will be more obvious next time0 -

Don't flame me, but I'm riding as Cervelo.
Just doing the single stage. I've sent 8 riders off in a simulanteous attack. I've got Gerrans as my main hope if they stay away.
I've left Thor behind. I'm banking on him if it comes down to a bunch sprint.
I've fast forwarded some of the action; 65 kms to go. A break of 12 (8 are mine) still have 4 minutes. Gerrans is fresh and ready to attack at 25 kms to go.
BTW - this stage of Pro Cycling Manager is being run without the use of Race Radio, and I can confirm I have it on Amatuer level; so I should win!!0 -
And I was planning on using this ultimately boring day at work to watch more of the racing than I usually have time to. Wrong day.0

Are you trying to convince us or yourself?
they are just not up for it....
still lets see someone take advantage with 20km to go and become ostracized by the peloton forever OR NOT"If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way.

25 kms to go - get ready for the attacks!0

If only life imitated art more often0

Goubert just went back to his team car and was seen looking at a dinner menu0
-
Ahhh bummer!!!!!!!!!
Gerrans died a 1000 deaths and got caught in last 100 metres
I was so busy with him didn't set Thor up for sprint
Cav won from Big Tom Boonen.
Thor came 17th, Gerrans still finished 11th
Cav's win; might be a sign of things to come.0 -
This race is so boring it makes Sean Kelly's voice positively exciting0
-
Does look like a routine gallop for Cav, but maybe Ignatiev's got a sting in his tail. He's surely not just going to sit in all day and then wait to get caught.0
-
They just had the final sprint LMAO0
-
At least I won't have to watch it now and will be able to iron my shirts.
Phew.Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.0 -

Maybe Andy Schleck told him the Tour has a Fuga Cervelo classification, same as in the Giro.0 -

Roscioli's win in the vuelta perhaps..."If I was a 38 year old man, I definitely wouldn't be riding a bright yellow bike with Hello Kitty disc wheels, put it that way. What we're witnessing here is the world's most high profile mid-life crisis" Afx237vi Mon Jul 20, 2009 2:43 pm0 -

Exactly. They don't really want to enliven things with a sprint. But letting a French break win on Bastille Day would be the wrong sort of punishment for the ASO. Yet another Cav win is the lesser of two evils.<hr>
<h6>What\'s the point of going out? We\'re just going to end up back here anyway</h6>0 -
Ignatiev to have a dig when the junction's made?0
-
My oh my! there are actually watts going into the pedals now!0
-
This finish might be quite good. Everyone is well rested - Cav ought to have lots of competition. How about Wiggo or Millar?<hr>
