Not as good as last training, but still pretty decent. Lucifero trained for the mountains in week 3 and Rik for the flat stages... oh wait... dammit. Anyway, good old Karl seems to be happy about Rik's return and trains with him. Eberle clinging on a roster spot, but I fear it's too late for him, he has to leave at the end of the month. Stenberg gets even cheaper, he might survive June.
I didn't mean to say it. But I meant what I said.

2025-05-27 Michael Redrocks Climbing +1
2025-05-27 Magnus Jensen Flat +1
2025-05-27 Magnus Jensen Climbing +1
The good:
Redrocks 12/12 at 23. Makes up for his 71 start and doesn't lose ground to his white competitor like this (Redrocks and Zuk in training: https://youtu.be/MF3Hg6FBBSU?si=eI5_nBwbMnM_ye3u). Jensen double training, finally! Wolf with an unexpected climb training at 30, now a 70-80. Nice! Henkey now at the same level as Goris flat wise, our highest rated flattie

The bad:
Kerken not training at all at 22... Missed his third consecutive ~50% secondary training and now a 93% primary training too. Lazy prick

Welcome to the joy of C4F! :D

But over the years, what would good training be without the contrast of the bad one. Now you just have to hope he's a late bloomer ;)

I already had RvV 2026 written on my palmares... Guess I have to take it off again :(

Busy oldies this time

Novelli -5 at 38
Almirall -4 at 37, keeps the mountain, 50% there...
Koopman -3 at 36, drops flat too.
Bucquoy -1 at 35, percentages -27% to -36%. Downhill, so perfect.
Fortunay -3 at 34, that's a lot. Percentages -17 to -25... but ok, keeps the 2 important skills, so still ok, looks worse than it really is.

So... actually ok. Most important 33+ rider is Bucquoy, he keeps mountain-sprint. Almirall keeps mountain, but with 74 flat he is a bit useless now, but well, as a battery basically. Novelli is Novelli, we are already celebrating his retirement that will happen in July, as for Koopman, his lack of results and skills makes him almost endearing.

+
Ganambarr mountain, now 59-80. But what is he there for, he did his job with 2 wins in spring. Oh well, his role in the team now is basically: Star. Star power, star aura, inspiration.
Kebede, did the training change, mountain with 25% sprint chance, didn't work, but ok mountain is nice too, 60-69 with 75 sprint. Maybe should have taken the sure sprint... but seemed worth taking the risk, not sure what it was anymore actually, I think 87-28...
Winzenried flat, good 81 flatm 81.3 pavé, loads of time to become a really strong pavé rider.
Gallego double, now 97-87, so was probably 100-9x before. perfect training so far 59-76. Big hopes to get him to 78 flat now!!!

Not a really good training, Ganambarr is nice, but a bit late, that was the positive surprise. But still ok finally Onkelinx after a good start now missing 3 of 4 at 24, hoped for more, but ok 41% percent, it's not scandalous to get only 1. Still of course hoped to get another flat for him.
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.

It seems I have complained enough about the last training to get a better one. The young guard, Marek, Loup, Myron, and Adriaan, were all taking the training I hoped for. Thorvald taking the low percentage flat now, I expected/wished he would get at some point. Downtraining is mostly good, but Jung Hee taking a very unlikely Sprint down-training is not.

Overall, most riders are either as expected or a bit beyond expectation, so I am happy (or I just have realistic expectations). Thorvald, Adriann, and Loup are very good, while Myron and Marek are mediocre and still can become very strong riders with more luck in the future.
