There is no Sicilia this year due to financing issues. Instead there is Giro d'Abruzzo which I guess has taken its place

I could do Romandie when enough info is online.
I will check the 3 races in Jura-Doubs also.
I hope to have time for that before the end of the month.

According to the PCS calendar (not sure what you use, I found PCS quite reliable (after the UCI site became almost impossible to navigate, maybe it's better again):

07.04. Giro della Città Metropolitana di Reggio Calabria 1.1 Same day as Paris-Roubaix, so if ridden better next day...
21.04. Giro della Romagna 1.1. Back after many years. A classic, ok semi classic. The Donks has his doubts if it really will be ridden, the organizer's site shows absolutely 0 info. But then Italian organizers often are a bit messy with their info... But if it does take place this one really should be ridden! Liège day, so again, next day.

If ridden both should be category 2 I guess.

Same route, with a minor change in the final climb (steeper street with 1km to go).

Slightly new route, same finish :

Tour du Doubs is the same route as last year.

Say no more!

Stage 1: Should be at the start of the second Penone climb the latest I think, short race anyway. I would even set it before the first climb (GPM, IS afterwards, most likely a decisive moment during the stage).

Stage 2: Min-tact looks good!

Stage 3: same thing that for stage 1: Min-tact set way too late in my opinion. I would set it at the bottom of the first Weerberg climb, same reasons that during stage 1: short race, decisive moment of the stage.

Stage 4: Either set it at the bottom of the Passo del Compet (what I would do), the bottom of the Passo del Vetriolo or if not there already, wait until the last climb. But 122, just because there is an IS in the only flat section of the last 50 km, is not necessary I think.

Stage 5: Very short stage, km 80 looks okay-ish, but I would prefer it even at the start of the climb up to the Palu del Fersina.

Thanks! You are right and they are in the UCI calendar, too. I just didnt know those races and at first sight did not realize they are important enough to be ridden on the wrong date. But Cat 1.1 ! So yes! If someone designs them, I will add them on those days (instead of Fantasy Races). If noone designs them, same destiny as Volta Limburg is facing right now.

Otherwise, PREVIEW PDF = FINAL PDF. (Sorry, maybe no time this week to update PDF, because the tool is not my current laptop but on another one where I luckily have no access for one week ;) )

ST1: mistake, mintact is at 111
ST3: km 90 is before first Weerberg ?
ST4: 122 is 20km to go. On bottom of Passo del Vetriolo would find it a bit long mintact around 50km.

Giro della Romagna done

Final circuit is 12,5 km long, made it 13, so 2 km longer than in reality. Climb to Bagnolo, cat 3 is 9 6 4 2, after the last lap, 5 extra km to the finish. Mintact 158, so 40 km, then it starts exactly at the the bottom of the third climb. If that's too long, designer would agree to make it km 168.

Hope I did everything right with the "event" wrote down Giro della Romagna, since I don't think there was an event yet.
For history we probably rode it until 2011. Yep, my outstanding press center helps, ridden 07-until even 2012, possibly not in 2008 (although I could just have not ridden it)

Vielsy à Briastre (-1*** +1*** -2***) instead of Saint-Python

Capelle-sur-Ecaillon à Le Buat (-1*** +3***) & Rue du Tapage (+2**) instead of Verchain-Maugré à Querenaing

No Haspres à Thiant


Comments welcome, but needs to be quick (by end of day tomorrow, very late for publishing already...).

Checked la Flèche Wallonne.

This year not only new start (is like that every year) but different laps at the end too, cut one climb. So will re-design it. No need for old profile for that. Design not today, but this week.

Liège some changes too until Cote de Wanne.... will try to tackle that after the Flèche. Here access to the 2023 edition in the editor would be helpful.

Run-in from Leuven 2km shorter
Lap also 2km shorter (no Hagaard)

So 197km instead of 205km.

I tried to give you (= all) the following functionalities:

>>> Search Profile (to find archived races / working for you already)
>>> Clone Profile (to clone the old profile and then edit it / working for you already)
>>> Change Designer (to become designer if someone else was the designer of that archive race / not even working for admins so far)

Sorry for the late answer, totally forgot about it. Thanks for the answer. And yes, in stage 3, 90 is before the frist Weerberg. Maybe I should check my eyes ;).

Giro d Abruzzo done. I Didnt Find it in the projects.Every Stage is hilly, because in the official information at the end of every stage are the same Points. And only two Kom cat is there. I decide it for third and first cat in C4F because the one give 5 points and the special 20 points for the first.

Stage 1 mintact km 142

Stage 2 mintact km 132

Stage 3 mintact km 148

Stage 4 mintact km 152

Thanks for designing it quickly !

After a quick look on the details/profiles, I have a few propositions for small changes :

stage 1 : last km should be a 0% after the downhill (last 2 could be -1/0 imo). as the stage is labelled with 161kms, maybe you are missing a little bit there.

stage 2 : last km should be +1%; total is 162kms, maybe a little bit missing too.

stage 3 : looks good, 1km less than displayed on their file, but looks good :) regular climb, more or less 7% all way up.

stage 4 : looks good, dont' know the % you put for the end. I'd do something like : -8/3/7 for the final 3kms.

Tanks alot, i changed it.
The Last 3 KM from stage are shown on the Site as -7,2; +3, and +7,6, i make the last as +7 seems better for puncheurs.

Good updates, profiles look good !
Now that the details are available on flamme rouge and that I can see it in the calendar preview, that's easier to see what the climbs look like.
I'd personnally make the first two stages more sprinter friendly (with a 5% max instead of 6% in the last climb of each stage; or at least the first one, unsure about the second one); but I guess that's a personnal view of the design and about the possible IRL outcome of the stage. So leaving it as it is (a 6%) is also ok.
