Here we can talk about this fast and small design challenge.


Proposed tours:

Cola Tour, by Gala.
White Christmas, by Roby.
Coral Sea Tour, by Moscow.
Tour of Syria, by Leso.
Réunion de Noël, by Poke.
CEST, by OL.

Nice idea. Really like it. Made my tour already. Check out CCT!

No other tour yet ? Are you working on something at the moment ?
Is it only because tracks4 is somehow down ?

yes
I've designed a lot of 3/5 days tours within the last 2 years, but I don't know if you can see it in the database...(I only can see 1 day races fore me)

I don't know if we can see it on the database but one thing is sure, we can't see it on SM creations part

He thinks he's better than the others, no need for him to share his creations...

I don't think it at all! I'm just too lazy to post all in the creation part

Ok, "think" was a bit too big a verb to use when you're concerned.

It's asked to create a new one, linked to Christmas somehow ... not to go deep in the DB to look for some old stuff

Good, so I win without a competition

I will present a Tour...

So Vea, Gala, RKL on the list soon or later

You can add poke, and surely OL

So move your asses designers!

We have to vote and whine!

3 Tours till now... waiting for Poke and Poke Girls!

Stop wait me, I arrive !

Vea it's the other topic to put the tour

Ops...I delete the message...

Nice tour from Gala

Hum still don't know what to vote:

Gala Tour looks good, there is a good balance between TT and mountain stage but there is not a single flat day, so in general i like how the gc could develop but don't like that much the ends of stage (except maybe stage 3).

White Christmas, i like the fact that he don't give a f**k about OL instructions "- It will take place at the end of December, think about the climate.", i don't like the idea of putting two TT the same day, i would have put the ITT the 3rd day after the stage to see people risking more, and maybe see the gc modified. Then for my taste is just too short, can't really be in in such short days.

Coral Sea, i like it, probably one vote will go for it, probably reducing the first stage of 30-40kms could have made the stage (and the tour) more interesting.

Syria, like and don't like it, too long itt and the third stage has another downhill finish with also some flat kms

Reunion de Noel, as i said it looks a bit Sula reloaded the ITT in my eyes looks too long so that Hubers should have it easily but i like the general concept, looks a bit foolish, so second vote could go for it.

CEST, pavè tour, we have already Tour of Pavè and for me is enough

Still undecided for the second vote grrrrrr... Reunion, Syria or Gala?

Just to react about your comment concerning CEST ... It's not really a pavé tour. Half stage the first day is a pavé stage, but pavé are light and the gaps should not be big. Then, pavé will probably not influence flat stage. And probably not a lot the last day, just will force team to make decisions for their leaders

Think about the climate? It's the only time of the year that riding there is possible! Plus, for once the x groups we have would all be realistic. It's day time for all of them!

Weather today:

0 Celsius right now, windchill -3 ! Rideable!
The weather? PERFECT!
More negative is that I'm not all to confident about how correct the percentages are... tried to adapt it as well as I could, but even the bay was at 50 meters... so minus 50 everywhere.. .actually forgot to do that in the TT, damn. Second problem for the first time ever I voted for my own tour, should be a reason not to vote for my tour for others. Second vote went to Syria btw, just because it's the only one where I can see a remote connection to Christmas.... wish for peace, Syria, kind of thing.

Oh, and it's a 6 riders tour, not sure I mentioned that, probably did, some might think it's a plus, others a -.
