Does anybody have time to design it?

Still on business trip. Can only do an emergency design tomorrow evening.

For info, that FL text (AI generated?) makes it sound much more design heavy than it is. Final 20 sectors are identical. Only first 10 sectors need to be redesigned.

2025 MSR: 70 teams (no split) RVV: 62 teams (no split) PR: 64 teams (no split) LBL: 63 teams (no split) 2026 MSR: 73 teams (no split) RVV: 64 teams (with 22h split) PR: ? LBL: ? Updated above. Decision for 4 editions was not unreasonable as you can see above but to avoid future splits, I am OK addi...

1st, trust your gut next time gip .

In the sprint or in the calendar? Overthinking both perhaps.

Mmmh this RCI is for guys who ride every day.


Ex-Riders, I got
Jairo Jimenez 58
Jacob Jefferson 44

Current riders only
Andreas Buccarini 18

Ok, Team FLanders and the Undertaker are hyping me up. So let's look at those Gipfel RVV stats: 2025: 2. Dann Boersma (58-83-75, with 81 pavé and 58 sprint) 2024: 1. Klaas Kemp (42-85-72, with 76 pavé and 51 sprint) 2023: 4. Pavlo Poulnikov (59-86-76, with 84 pavé and 45 sprint) 2022: 1. Gaspard Gag...

Comment now for 2027. Eikenberg has cobblestones. Has been ** for us. 6** or starting from Flanders 26 5**, both ok. But that's why it can help to write out all the hills and cobbles we ride here in this thread for each or most races. New ones more important, old ones nice too. Easier to catch mist...

All real races published until and including Scheldeprijs.

Will be on a business trip next week, so not sure if I find the time for Paris-Roubaix. If someone else can have a look, would be great.

Thanks for the feedback. Takeaways: -Eikenberg 5% or 6% both fine. 6% could work, but climb itself probably closer to 5% avg, and quite a lot easier than Paterberg, which only gets 7% that km. Mayne time to re-assess Paterberg and Koppenberg anyway since those, together with the Oude Kwaremont, are...

Wohoo. Finally, I got some evening feedback. Ok, I had to produce something controversial first. And the feedback comes after the Final PDF. But doesn't matter... feedback! Awesome! 23h races in March (ignoring those parallel to TA/PN): 9-12 participants each. Those aren't classics, ok. And only one...

According to procyclingstats Giro C.M. di Reggio Calabria is cancelled. Will it be cut or are we using last year's version then?

It think last year it was not even part of our calendar so I am OK cancelling it in that case.

Route 2026 is different from Route 2025: - Total Climbs: Increased to 12 (compared to 10-11 in previous editions). - New Climbs: Added Hellestraat (km 48) and Onderbossenaarstraat (km 107, 1.4km long, 10% max). - Earlier Climbing: The hill zone begins 21km earlier than in 2025, with climbing starti...

The first post of this thread can use an update; Tour of the Alps for example is already getting designed. Would love to help but let's avoid double work of course... I can only do it if I know about it ^^ Did anyone raise their hand here or in the ingame editor chat? Just for my own understanding:...

All races now in calendar.

Design help much appreciated as always. I can do DDV today.

4 vs 5 editions. Thanks for opinions. I'm still undecided. So I look at last year's stats: 2025 MSR: 70 teams RVV: 62 teams PR: 64 teams LBL: 63 teams 2026 MSR: 73 teams RVV: ? PR: ? LBL: ? Wasn't fully aware MSR is most popular, even though makes sense with its profile... so perhaps 4 editions is r...

Last year around this time I was called a 'retard' in this game by a currently inactive manager, which I do find incredibly offensive. As a former FPC member, I have huge respect for the work of FPC and past decisions are past decisions, but personally, for the future, I wish offensive language lik...

Capo Berta , see above biggest change, while a 6% always seemed likely, didn't expect a 7%. 5.6% and 7.1%, what do we do, this IMO is the biggest question we have after RCS finally gave us the info (other sites might have shown that earlier, but other sites often are not really correct (although th...

If we look at MSR I don't think 5 editions are needed for monuments It's a tough one. If it works out like for MSR with 21/22 teams it's great. But if we have fields split, it's total crap. That's why I'd go for 5 editions. But it's a close call, so I can be convinced to stay with 4 editions. or yo...

Monteberg-Kemmelberg: Last year 6,-3,8***. Need to find something for this year, gpx seems to say way less steep. Will edit it in later. Beullens and me discussed that last year, his conclusion was: Okay I do think that the way the Gent-Wevelgem climbs are. I do not know if the few kms before the c...

I think I stumbled upon the gpx of Gent-Wevelgem - In Flander Fields here: https://www.touretappe.nl/in-flanders-fields-2026/route-iff-2026/ . I have imported it into the designer and will link it to the stage, add labels etc, but could use some help with how hard the pavé is considered. Will work ...

If no one else does, I will try to design E3. Could probably have it done by tomorrow

That would be super helpful, Tukh.

Auch finde ich es auch ehrlicherweise nicht tragbar , dass derartiges Verhalten hier darüber legitimiert wird, dass sich die Person ja auf anderer Ebene engagiert und Rennen erstellt. Ich persönlich möchte gar kein Rennen fahren, dass von jemandem erstellt wurde, der an anderer Stelle Anderen gern ...

Will put last years profile even if it's not 100% correct. Shouldn't it be easy to have the current profile? It's been online for a long time. And although the route is very different than last year, it's flat anyway. 203 km. Three Cobble sectors (well it's one but it's ridden three times, the cobb...

Hello missing race for tomorrow

Will put last years profile even if it's not 100% correct.

Ich wollte eigentlich weiterspielen und den Chat einfach nicht mehr lesen, aber wenn selbst admins einfach anfangen mich grundlos zu beleidigen, dann ist es definitiv nicht das richtige Spiel. schappy, deshalb aufzuhören würde nur die Provokateure bestärken. Lass die Leute reden, bleib höflich und ...
