Actually I'll be designing Tirreno-Adriatico.

Ape designing for march:

- De Vlaamse Pfijl
- Nokere Koerse
- Handzame Classic
- Dwaars door Vlanderen
- E3
- Gent-Wevelgem
- De Panne
- Tirreno Adriatico. And I'm serious about that one, not joking. Designed it 2011 too, plus I need to design something normal in between the stupid Flandrien idiocies where they take another turn to another small road every 300 meters....

More to come later

I could design Driedaagse van West Vlaanderen.
Maybe Nopik could correct the cobbles ?

I like tradition and rituals. One of my favorite rituals is in march.

lesossies puts the Vlaamse Pijl online. Category 2.
Roby sees it and shows up and says: It should be category 1.

http://www.memoire-du-cyclisme.net/lign ... e_pijl.php

Look at this awesome winners list.

http://www.devlaamsepijl.be/content/dee ... nemers.php
Look at the unbelievable high class teams that will participate! Just because it's pavé doesn't mean it's important! Vlaamse Pijl is actually the most cat 1 race of all cat 1 races... Or do you plan to make Trofeo ZSSDI something on the 4th cat 2 as well? As important as Vlaamse Pijl.
And this year I'll even go further, a break with tradition I know. Monte Paschi Eroica is the same day again! Wouldn't it be awesome to have the cat 1 Vlaamse Pijl as a D6-7 race? Like in reality, no Elite team is actually permitted to participate in Vlaamse Pijl.

And about the times:

The 3 important stage races in march:

9-14-17-20-22 PN. ok
10-15-18-21-23 TA ok
But then why not

11-16-19-21-24 for Catalunya?
Or 22-24? (not sure how to treat 22, late evening or evening...)
You always get demands for more late evenings, especially 24. Of course you can't give them all times everytime, like everybody else, sometimes 22 or 23 will have to do. But if there are 3 important stage races in one month, one should be there for 24. And the same for 11, 16, 19. Don't know much about 11, but 16+19 always seem to have good participation, give them their time too.

About some French Races :

Grand Prix de la ville de Lillers, 04/03, done:


Paris Nice, 04/03, done.
Loire Atlantique, 17/03, same circuit than last year, but one more loop I guess, skull could add it ?
Roue Tourangelle, 18/03, profil seem to be different this year, http://www.larouetourangelle.com/module ... t.php?id=2
Cholet Pays de Loire, 18/03, seem to be similar than last year, http://www.cholet-pdl.com/index.php?opt ... Itemid=276

Tour de Normandie, 19/03 (parallel to catalunya) is needed or not at all ?

Critérium International, 24/03, I will try to design it in few days

Route Adélia, 30/03, profile seem to be different (maybe because the design was not perfect ?), I can do it again if you want, http://www.routeadelievitre.fr/fra/2012 ... ation.html

ol can you write please if the crono are ITT OR TTT?

both are ITT

but...

next time: http://en.lmgtfy.com/?q=Paris+Nice+2012

I guess it's ITT for both, if it was TTT, it would be precised like CLM Eq. or CLM par équipes

mintact km 158

Attention. Changed the name. Couldn't bring myself to write "Quer durch Flandern" as the official name.
Means we might lose the old winners list... hihi. If Leso wants to edit the race and write Quer durch Flandern he can, I just won't do such a thing.

Mintact 168.

First 4 stages of Tirreno-Adriatico



TTT, nothing else to add



Middle mountain, a 6 9km from the end.. mintact km 198



Sprint stage, km tact 150



254 km (gained 2 somewhere again..) HC, km tact at 190. End is a new editor problem, km 245 to 254 are not taken... will adapt as soon as leso corrects the beta-phase problem. Last 2 km 12 3, before another hill with 2 6 and one 7.

Rest normally tomorrow.

Leso, I guess you are aware the the categories of the races displayed in the race calender are not the one they should have at the moment, like Friuli (displayed as cat. 1), or Vlaamse Pijl (also cat. 1).

Friuli cat 1 this year ok. Won't be raced in real life.
Vlaamse Pijl is clearly a cat 1 race. Nothing else
Ignore FL!

ok roby write it but please don't put time from km 2 like usualy you do

HC stage, mintact from 150

middle mountain, mintact 144

ITT, mintact from km 1!!!!!!! (was thinking about 2 for Pirkio)

stage 4 worked too now, good!

E3/Harelbeke done

Don't forget, cat 5 this year, it's WT now.

mintact at km 140.

Doing Gent-Wevelgem next

Km tact from 180, first Kemmelberg.

But then why not
11-16-19-21-24 for Catalunya?

Catalunya 11,16,19,21,24 or 10,15,18,20,22,24 for me OK if some want 24 !
Other ideas ?

Grr, why "or 10-15-18-21-24"???
What's wrong with 16-19?

About the 23-24h italian thing ...

Sardinia Morning : 8/17 teams are italian
Langkawi Morning : 5/12 teams are italian
Morning : 13/29 = 45% of italians

Sardinia afternoon : 4/16
Langkawi afternoon : 1/9
Afternoon : 5/25 = 20% of italians

Sardinia later late aftenoon : 0/19teams
Langkawi : 2/11
Late afternoon : 2/30 = 7% of italians

Sardinia Night : 6/17 teams are italian
Langkawi Night : Cancelled due to no registration (where are the italians ??)
So, Lankawi evening (21h) : 1/25

Evening/night : 7/42 = 17% of italians

That only for the current tours, should be interesting to continue this in March when there are tours ! But the "late italian registration" defended by some italians managers is maybe not so important ...
But, for portuguese people, seems more legit to add a late race in the night !

If there's a 20 or 21h start, it's ok for me, but please no 19h / 22h

People !
Stop complaining about "BAHH 20h is not ok for me and I am not the only one, my friend Mr X and Mr XX agree with me, I want 21h for Tirreno, 22h for Critérium International and 21h18 for la classicima cause the race is quite long". "And don't make the cobbles classic during the afternoon, it's not easy to watch the race on TV and play on RSF !"
FUCK AND FUCK ! If you want to ride when you want, bring 1000 more players in RSF, so we'll have much more times to play ! If you can't, do what you can with the current times and if sometimes it's not possible for you to ride, ride the day after ! You will not die because of 1 day of RSF missed !
I guess it's impossible to satisfy 100% of the players at the moment, so sometimes you're fucked, sometimes that's the italian/portuguese/chinese/or neocaledonian (jetlag effect) who's fucked !
Thanks.
