1st draft :










(about that one the text says downhill finish, but I don't see any downhill finish at all, either in the graph and in the roadbook/maps; to be checked later if necessary )








About that stage : used the rule of 3kms of * before switching to ** for long sectors. last two short sectors are ** (as they are in strade bianche classic). final climb to siena is 6* like in the classic of March. There are less kms of gravel here than in reality as I had to remove gravel for steeper sections than -2. 4cat kom had to be put in the downhill in order to avoid the usual issue. Open to change/adapt it if needed.























I did all the climb with * . But I can change to ** after 3kms of * if needed.



KOM/IS will need to be adjusted when confirmed.

We have to click on the race to see the times, it's better if it's in display without having to click!

There is still the "Editions" tab, doesn't that help here?

True, I just forgot about it..

Tour of Norway:



The fourth stage is the same as last year, so could someone add that.

You can add it, too

You find the profile code if you go last year's profile, then right click and then, for example 'open in new tab'. There you see the file-name of the profile which is also the profile code.

Let me know if it doesnt work somehow.

The intermediates are a little different from last year, is there a way for someone to edit them?

Yes. It should work like this:

More > Editor > Profile > Search Profile

There you can select the archived profile from last year, and then you "Clone Profile", give it a new profileCode, save it. Then you should be able to edit it.

Let me know if it doesn't work.

Giro d'Abruzzo

Giro d'Abruzzo

Thanks for the design !

I'd not go for a 6% for the last km of stage 2 as there is a flatish part at the end. maybe 6/6/5 or 6/5/5 sounds better imo. https://www.la-flamme-rouge.eu/maps/vie ... 2?climb=21
The rest looks like a great design

Thanks, it's now a 6/5/5

Now with the Preview PDF, certainly still necessary to trigger discussions. (Until I implement a PDF-like view in-game...)

Feedback needed mainly on Giro d'Italia editions, but if someone has an opinion about the parallel programme, that is also welcome and important (in the hope for comebacks/newcomers during Giro).

Could we please either have a 15h or 22h Giro edition?

i like always would ask for 19 or 20h giro, not sure if we have the playerbase for 5 editions currently? if not i also can accept the 18 or 21 Giro have to check which one is better for me timewise.

I see there is no Giro 2025 Thread in the "coordination and discussion important races" as it was the case for the former editions. Is that wanted or has just been overseen?

Read my question again. Maybe you can answer it properly, thanks.

I guess the idea was not do do the same as last year (19-22). For me 21h sounds nice, but I am not sure about 18h. In spring and summer this is often a tricky time, so I would fear we get a big 21h group and a much smaller 18h group. So maybe do 19h again if nobody insists on 18h.

It's neither wanted nor overseen. But nobody has opened it, yet.

I would say yes. Maybe better to have a starterfield of 8 active teams, than a 10+ field with teams being off some stages, cause the starting time is not what they wanted, just the best they could find…

Thanks. But if it's not wanted, I won't open a thread then . Was just curious.

Confusing... Wasn't your question if it's wanted that there is no Giro Thread ? To be clear, it's not wanted that there is no Giro Thread. So it's wanted that there is a Giro Thread. Also don't know why anybody would ever have a problem with the existence of a Giro Thread in a Cycling4Freaks forum

then your answer was confusing.

It's neither wanted (...)

clearly means that it's not wanted

Anyway, the question could have been answer easily in the first place. But good to know. I still won't open a thread as neither (!) do I feel responsible nor do I need it necessarily.
