I leave the game. I start this thread now to record memories to races, riders and fellows in this 40 months of ByZickl. I will append at the next days some stories. But at the beginning the end:
Stefan Nipp wins the GIRO 2012 (thanks to Allagen for selling Nipp to the right time). Sandor Kocsis wins the point jersey at GIRO 2012. The team is the best team at the GIRO 2012. Bogdan Matei frames the GIRO 2012 with a stage victory at the first and last stage. For some hours Stefan Nipp and ByZickl leading the score boards. This is the best time to retire.
The finishing score: 890 races, 97842 points, 83 stage wins, 10 tour victories, 22 times second or third at a tour, 5 point jerseys, 15 mountain jerseys, 5 times best young rider at a tour and 17 times best team at a tour. Not really impressive, but my focus was always to keep clean and fair, not just taking, also giving.

I say thanks to all teams, they rode with me in a fair way. It is hard for me the name special Teams, but I try:
At first I thank JPS Classics, who coaching after I really destroy my first race and tour with the greatest noop mistake, I can do. But JPS help me to understand the game and so I found my place at the RSF jungle.
Then there are many teams riding with them is always a pleasure. This list may not be complete: Auxillium Torino, Allagen, Petit Singe/Robyklebt, Allrad, Alkworld, Team Scotland, Elbcoast Riding, Equipe Mathematique, SK Blu-Bardhe, RS Ostfriesland, Gaurain RX, Leso, Libby, Marzahn, Gude Laune, ABC, Wookie, Freudenfeuer, Flakenbier, Team FL, bergwerk, Hansa-Team, Woddletown, Chense, Toxicity, Die Playboys and so on.
I know, I forgot many teams, may be this thread will reactivate my mind.

At last I say thank you to all my sitters. Without you playing is not possible, if there is little bit real life outside the game. Thanks, thanks, thanks.

nipp nipp hurrraaa! wie geil der sieg von nipp ist! Was für ein Karriereende für solch einen tollen Fahrer! Einmal erster und einmal dritter beim Giro! Das muss ihm erstmal einer nachmachen! Echt toll.

Schade das du aufhörst, wirklich. warst ein netter bei rsf! vielleicht kommst du ja nochmal zurück, ich fänds cool. bis dahin alles gute im rl!
