I see the Fleche Wallonne is designed already. I guess that's the 2025 version? Because while most of the race has stayed the same, the start is a bit different this year.

Edith adds that LBL looks very much like last year.

No it's 2026. Did you spot any mistakes?

Just that the start looks slightly different, the rest looks perfectly fine. A yes, the length too. Race is now 200 km long, not 206.

Updated Romandie a bit.

Stage 1: Stays as it is

Stage 2: Updated La Rasse and Ovronnaz according to LFR information, kept the final km as 1, but am now a bit unsure about 1 or 0 there

Stage 3: Still stuck here a bit. The final climb is about 4km long, from the gpx I get something like 4.9%, 6.3%, 4.6%, 2.3%, but the GPM is about 400m from the top of the climb since it levels off quite a bit there. If I just put the GPM at the end of this climb I would get 5, 6, 5, 2, -4, 1 for the end of the stage. If I put the GPM where it actually is, the whole thing is just a massive pain. Then the climb becomes 6, 6, 4 like AAD said with an awkward 400m uphill drag that makes the final 2.2km into -2, 1 if I just go by the numbers. Any advice on what you guys think is the most elegant solution here?

Stage 4: Updated the climbs according to LFR information

Stage 5: Corrected km42-57 and updated the climbs according to LFR information. Hopefully no mistakes with all the different ways going up and down that climb

Tour du Doubs... Cancelled Real Races in general... how do we handle them better?

If they are cancelled after Final PDF, and if we don't have that many Fantasy Races, best to keep them in with previous year's version?

I see only two problems:
- if there is no previous year's version (then we need fantasy again...)
- which category do they become? One cat lower then?

-Yes, fantasy instead. Could be a fantasy design of the cancelled race of course.
-Would go cat 1 in any case then, since it isn't a "real race".

How it used to be when there was a policy (Luques-times)

Everything exactly as in the final PDF. This meant: last year's profile, category as in the PDF.
Kraftsystemrevision! Include the distance!
Basics reform: Give blue a chance!
Don't punish bugusers. We all have to use bugs, since most of them are declared as "features"!
Got a carrot from FL. But they threaten to take it away now.

Not clear to me where exactly the 6(?) km differences are coming from. Perhaps discrepancy between LFR and that picture you posted, or has to do with the circuit.

Neutral zone maybe? Seems like the first 6-7km of the in game profile are not on the actual profile on the official site, so I'm assuming it's the neutral zone.

That "picture" is the profile from the official website. La Flamme Rouge also has it listed with 200 km on the PCR website: https://www.procyclingstats.com/race/la ... e-profiles

same here, even with GPX-File: https://www.cyclingstage.com/la-fleche- ... -lfw-2026/

but won't change the character of the race anyway. so not too bad ;).

Would say the first potential sieb km being km2 or km28 is quite different :).

If it's that we should implement neutral zone, but don't need admins for that. Teams can just ride through it without sieb :)

Romandie done now from my perspective. Stage 3 still a bit awkward, but imo the least bad solution now. Also points not exactly as in real life, but no way to do it correctly here. TT and the last 2 stages should give 30 points to the winner, the other stages 50

11-15-19-20-22 looks weird for LBL, is that intentional?

Yeah late times are lovely for long Sunday races. Why would you want to finish before 12 am or 12 pm. Makes no sense at all

11-15-19-22 was promised in the PDF.

20 was added as an additional evening time because
- RVV and PR both had splits at 21/22 respectively
- We got lots of new players in the meantime

For Berlin, I am not sure, what you try to say, that 22 is too late? It is a very popular time and there are 4 other editions offered, two of them in the evening for anyone for whom 22 is too late, so I think it is fine.
