2010_racecalendar

245 race days in 2010 Let's go racing! Garmin - Transitions has posted a race calendar for the 2010 season. They even encourage you to download and or print it for your very own. I don't know if all the cool kids have one but why not get it just to be sure you are not left out.

Very nice.

Watch out for the occasional typo: they have Het Nieuwsblad taking place February 14-19 and KBK the 17-21 (looks like they just repeated the dates for the two previous stage races). And LBL and F-W are both coded as stage races. I love them for doing this, but proofreading is a good thing!

HELP!

Does anyone know how to design something like this? Because I would LOOOOVE to have an official Podium Cafe VDS race calendar!

We will have something

as part of the VDS app, but the purpose of that calendar is to link to things, whereas this is a nice one-page visual.

Especially with the crayons!

I have to fuck to put the padding and it still remains to be seen whether I think cents for Allan Davis--Google Translate, not quite rendering a Patrick Lefevre quote into English

lol

well, i could probably make something with crayons. but don’t we want a little more better than that?

by Jen See on Jan 5, 2010 9:06 PM EST up reply actions  

With crayons it's a lot easier to draw outside the lines.

    Therefore it would make sense to draw proportional days, for example the Queen stage of the Giro is a much bigger day than stage two of the Tour of Poland. And with the Giro you get more race for your calendar space so it should get more space on the page. Sometimes you’ll need to use fat lines too so that people will know what’s important and thin faint lines for the not so important stuff. What would work better, a box of crayons and lots of paper or a computer program and lots of swear words. ;-)

hmm

i tend to prefer the user-interface on the crayons, myself ;-)

My initial attempts at using MS Publisher are promising...

the program drives me mad at times, but I think it’s got the capabilities

by WaterGirl on Jan 5, 2010 10:36 PM EST up reply actions  

I'm pretty confident I can pull this together

Once I get the format of the box finalized, it will be a lot of copying and pasting.

I just need to know what info we want to include in each race block (i.e. scoring category) and the final list of races. I can put together a more thorough mock-up this weekend

Unfortunately, does not appear that there is a ‘crayon’ tool to use…

by WaterGirl on Jan 5, 2010 11:31 PM EST up reply actions  

oooh, awesome!

email me offline, and i can probably get the list of races to you.
email in profile :-)

Did she really say.. Email me offline?!?!

I really have to think hard to understand that.

..

Now I did..
And it still doesn’t make any sense..

lol

Email offline means let’s talk about this privately, not here on the site. Offline meaning, not online here. I don’t think I invented this turn of phrase. But er, maybe I did.

by Jen See on Jan 7, 2010 12:12 PM EST up reply actions  

+ a bazillion

Of course I have little idea on how to do it: what software to use.
