Since weeks no tour at 21.00 for me. Burgos don´t count, because they stole 21.00 from BinkBank.

What about britain 20.00 or 21.00?

[Robyklebt]

I just realized that my grand Masterplan for the parallel tours was destroyed by Luques eagerness to have Denmark early and 3 times...

9-20, 14-21, 18-23 was the superb plan. Which clearly I didn't adjust when I sent the proposal to Luques 2 weeks ago. Did it fast hoping to catch him before the holidays.

We already have
11-18-22 Denmark
9-20 Germany

Then clearly Britain 18-23 is no good.

14/16-21/23
Afternoon no parallel tours yet. 14 more popular so probably that. Pushing the more important classics to 16....
21 or 23... after 22 nothing yet either, 20 and 22. I'd tend to go for 23...
Won't be 18-23 pretty sure though. Unless Luques doesn't show up for a week.

Opinions!

I started tour of Britain 19 :

Updated

[Robyklebt]

I'll regard it as finalized in 24 hours if we don't have discovery of major problems until then.

[olmania]

I finished Britain, just started Slovakia now :



I'll try to design a bit more of it tomorrow.

No tour at the end of the month in the calendar preview ?

[Robyklebt]

Bretagne Classic

[olmania]

Slovakia is done :

[Robyklebt]

Slovakia online.

Stage 1-6 Britain don't seem to exist, at least I can't find them.

Fixed

[Robyklebt]

Britain online.




Bruxelles done and online. Almost the same course, but 10 km shorter. RKL was of the opinion that 4 of the hills were 6+. Still good for sprinters, but not automatic anymore.

For what remains to be done, see opening post.

[Robyklebt]

More stuff online, check "inscription" until Luques opens September.

For things not on yet, check the first post (updated)

[luques]

September opened.

For WC, this year times will be U23 10 - 15, Elite 18 - 21.

It is already drawn?

[Mangahn]

I know I´m to late with my question. I´m sorry for that.

Is there a good reason to go slowakai with only 2 times? There is no parallel tour.

I would gave morning and evening a own time (sure I won´t ride there, its only because I think its fair).

[Gipfelstuermer]

Gipfelstuermer<16:11>: Possible to change that please?
Gipfelstuermer<16:11>: But currently it is Monday between Stage 15 and 16?
Gipfelstuermer<16:10>: Should be Tuesday between Stage 16 and 17
Gipfelstuermer<16:10>: Ehm, luques & Big Donkey, am I seeing this wrong or you put the wrong rest day for Vuelta?

[Robyklebt]

Sorry for the mistake, didn't check well enough.

Change could only have been done by Luques, not by me once the race started.
But by now probably too late, 2 editions had their sunday stage.... sorry, so even if Luques passes by don't think anything will change now.

[Gipfelstuermer]

Well, ok for me, I didn't check as well... Usually you do it correctly when the designer does it correctly, but of course mistakes can happen.

I don't mind because I am not riding for GC or Mountain anyway. But for some it could be a big change...

Anyway, I will double check your work next time I design an important race

Also, maybe luques could teach you or somebody else to help with calendar or generally bug fixing? Would be helpful if not 100% of the game depends on one person. A bit less pressure for luques then...

[Robyklebt]

My prediction was wrong, Luques did change it.

STAGE ON today in the Vuelta!!!

Sorry again for the mistake.

[Herr Akles]

it is so stupid to change that just several hours before the stage!

you know by yourself, that its not easy to ride a GT and be online that much.
with that decision you fuck all the invested time and that just annoys me.

its not a big mistake to have the restday today, but to change that more than 5 hours after the previous stage ended is just bullshit.

I'm really so pissed right now

Humans can do mistake, never forget it is important to check if calendar guys put races correctly.

[Robyklebt]

We have a slight problem with Toscana. Once again it became a 1 day race, not the 2 day stage race as which it was originally planned. What to do?

I see three more or less sensible solutions:

- No change in calendar, except Toscana as 1 day race
- Add a third time to Slovakia, 10 in this case, since the parallel tour 10-20 is cancelled.
- Add Tour of China II instead. Stupid ass boring endless flat tour in China, from the 16th to the 22th.

As probably nobody guessed, the China option is my least favorite one. And if people want it, people will design it... but just designing it, put it in won't work either, first there has to be a decision that that's what a decent amount of users actually want.

The Donkey is for the put in 10 for Slovakia option btw.

[Robyklebt]

Wallonie done. Quite a few changes, some of the earlier hills in the end phase are easier. The final one km after the end of the pavé.
Last 3 km 5* 6* 2. Could maybe be 5* 5* too. Everywhere you check you find different infos....

On today, cancelled it and on tomorrow. Depends on the above thing as well, 4 or 5 editions etc.

[Tukhtahuaev]

A third Slovakia sounds like the best option to me
