February 2026

Sing-up process will be super fast, starting Feb 1st. Good to test that on a fantasy WC, so we can decide how to handle it if we ever have a real WC early in the month.

Is the problem with seeing the form of the riders solved? Otherwise please no early WC

I'm not a fan of the long pave races before every stage race

I think it's best to put km1 mintact for the cyclocross WC. Last WC, one minute wasn't enough to do stuff.

- performance improvements are in place, but no idea, if they help. That also strongly depends on the players
- form is not visible during signup (as far as I remember), but can be seen during the race
- I have no time to change the visibility of form in the race until Monday
- I also don't like that short-term signup process, why not do the world championship in March or towards the end of the month? It can be parallel to other races as well

Enough reasons to postpone it

[Gipfelstuermer]

Enough reasons to cancel it.

Once there are written unambiguous rules for World Championships provided, it can be re-considered.

Etoile de Besseges has gpx files on La Flamme Rouge available and starts soon.

Does anybody plan to design it?

Ok, so the final pdf is not right, are there any more changes?

Please coordinate with Taka

from the general chat:

Uomo Nero(14:43): I planned to finish it today and do Besseges but got a little busy

Apologies for this, but the reasons only appeared on 28th January, when the Final PDF was already created.

If there are any other cancellations, I will mention here.

Go ahead, I used my c4f time for this week lol

[Nomorelulz]

Will the one day races be filled out until tomorrow?

Too late, I know, say it anyway.

Jammu and Kashmir in Winter not ideal... We go up to over 2000 meters, Babareshi (wrote it wrong on the profile, Babaresh). Near Gulmarg, a bit lower, but Gulmarg at 2600 meters seems to be THE main Indian ski resort. That means.... SNOW. And Babareshi at 2100 normally should get snow in winter too... with the corresponding temperatures. On the website of the ski resort in Gulmarg it says:

I would say that the best time to come ski Gulmarg is between the last week of January and the last week of February

.
But ok, we'll survive it, just don't automatically assume India means winter, the north, the ones touching the Himalaya, Sikkim, Ladakh, Arunachal Pradesh and possibly others too are much better for summer!

Same weather concern for the Iranian races, especially the one over the Kandovan pass. That road is closed in Winter, even the upper tunnel often, that's why they built a longer one further down. Here too February is the wrong time.

Also my doubts about Cochabamba... think we rode that already (checked, yep) and is a flat pavé race really needed in February with the real, not flat, but pavé Omloop planned? But ok, can be done. And too late anyway, I know, I know

It's not late, it's just fantasy cat 1 races I'll try to change them. But Omloop is not pavés at all so Cochabamba needed!

Only didn't find anything about the classification of the stages so far

[Radunion]

Looks like there are the same points for all stages (probably even the ITT). As we do not adapt bonuses for each race, it is the designer's choice. Stage 3, of course, should be an ITT.

Besseges is designed

Hello ECS, just a general hint when working with laps. You should check if the altitude in-game is right when you work with laps. The GPX files have the whole race in one turn, that means that every km step is checked in game and you get the Height GPX, the editor then calculates a Height C4F out of that. Problem is: when the lap is lets say 10.4 km long, you end of on a different point the next lap and the altitude doesnt match. Happened here at Stage 3 when you check Col de Trelis. Mostly also the Incline is different (maybe you corrected it but then ended up on a different height).

Should be fixed now, thought I had checked all the heights, must have missed that one.

Great. Just randomly checked one stage.
