Hi, it depends on what you need for your team. To me your rider looks like the perfect 60-80 helper so I would train mountain and flat with 21 so that both values are as close as possible to 100% (flat will be in the 90% region I think). With 22 there are the options to go 100% mountain & rest flat ...

First of all thank you for your nice recaps and stats Gip! I always like to read them and they make this tour more interesting to follow :) The GC situation is hard. It is basically the same as for the Vuelta. There is Lorient, me and another good climber. This time Ansach in the role that Bone had ...

Galacticos News October Roster moves Finally some more movement this month. Daniel Castillo had to be sold & Nicolas Sanz retired. New riders: Luca de Marchi http://www.radsportfreaks.com/radsport/Bilder/I.gif 73-54-74-52-54-47reg Lukas Wallnöfer http://www.radsportfreaks.com/radsport/Bilder/I.gif ...

At first I didn't like MIT at all. Just 1 mountain finish and that is a short one so I don't think climber's will have big chances for GC. It looks more like a tour for classics with TT/pave to me. But after the second look I am beginning to like it more and more. It should make for a very interesti...

Transfer news Castillo released for 2021 climber Daniel Castillo had to leave our team a few days ago in order to be able to sign a new contract with our future leader for 2021. Daniel Castillo won 7 races for us. The most important one clearly stage 11 of this year's Giro d'Italia. Beside that he ...

I'd prefer Andes at 22h but just out of personal preference. No other reason

So it is normal if the finance tab is empty for the next days?

Same for 22h tour.

Galacticos News September Roster moves We failed to buy our future climber for 2021 so at the end some of the money was spent to sign 22-year old Daniele Marcolli from Italy to lower salaries on flat / Cat.1 races. Finance update + 2.127.103 - Solid gains as the Vuelta finished in September. After ...

Never had a rider like this. For Castillo I should consider to sell him more often. Every time ...

Very nice! Hopefully we see you more frequently again now that you have your future leader

Galacticos News August Roster moves After it became clear that there was no spot for Mario Haas at the Vuelta he was sold mid August. No new riders were signed as the team is collecting money to buy a climber in September/October. Finance update - 490.688 - The Vuelta did its duty and erased every ...

Climbing Passos Santa Barbara & Monte Bondone. Then down through Sarche valley and up Passo del Ballino.The final km leads the peloton right through the old city center of Torbole and up the slightly cobbled climb to Nago/ Via Europa. http://www.radsportfreaks.de/radsport/pngfiles/2020_08_25_2462914...

If I start then 100% here. I am not completely sure yet but the parallel races to the Vuelta are not very interesting so it looks good. Same for the team lineup here. Will make it depend on which teams will participate and also the number of teams. I can't afford another loss. Tour should be at leas...

Galacticos News July Roster moves No movements at all as there is no money after Giro + Tour de France.

-> Back to bad training again. Just Roux + Vega flat is not enough. At least Haas just loses unimportant TT + sprint

Congrats to JJ for a uncomparable career! He was my favorite since my comeback. Sad to see him retire but he chose the perfect moment. As for a new team leader I can't see this team as a climber's team but you might want to chose some variation after all these months of sprint sprint sprint. So go f...

I think for green the stage to Lyon is crucial. If Fontaine manages to win there it is 50 points as it is declared a flat stage even with the 6 just a few kms before the finish line. The other mountain stages do not hurt as there would be enough IS on the way which Betancur could win or score points...
