First winner on the road in Europe: Samuel Dumoulin!
So the European road season finally kicked off in the south of France at GP La Marseillaise and it was pretty exciting, for late January. A few breakaways got away and were brought back. Near the end, a group of 15 got away...
Romain Bardet et Mikaël Chérel (AG2R) Bert De Waele (Landbouwkrediet) Pieter Serry (Topsport Vlaanderen)
Romain Hardy (Bretagne-Schuller) David Le Lay (Saur-Sojasun) Julien Guay (Roubaix-Lille Métropole)
Jérémie Galland (Saur-Sojasun) Rémy Di Grégorio (Cofidis) Thibaut Pinot (FDJ-BigMat) Romain Hardy (Bretagne-Schuller) Samuel Dumoulin (Cofidis) Arthur Vichot (FDJ-BigMat) Davide Malacarne (Europcar) and Lieuwe Westra (Vacansoleil)
Those 15 got away and stayed away until the finish with Sammy taking the win over Marco Marcato and Arthur Vichot

Marcato
Startes the season with what he’s remembered for in the past two seasons: a second place. Poor bloke…
Me like bike, no?
Double yay!!!!
It was about a week ago that i noticed that I could enter a team name and start picking riders. :-)
Only to find out that There were no riders to pick. :-(

Sorry, we're going full CAS/TAS and pushed it out by one day
New start is Feb 2nd, midnight EST = Feb 2, 06:00 CET. It might change still.

I know what is going on!
Ursula, probably insisting on charging Dollars or Euros for Gilbert, instead of VDS points. :)

That is cruel to mess with Holms that way...
I think he’s actually crying right now…

He just choked...!
Strava...? We are going for the TOP 10 this year...! Are you going to be part of something great or not?
Not a bad thing, actually!
His 28 points VDS price, will be perfect tool in his new contract negotiation for the next year.

Where's valverde?
I was looking for making a team and couldn’t find him.
Sminer: I blame KARMA for everything.
Jens: I've heard it's a bitch
Water Girl: I heard it ran over your dogma
Chasing the dog?

Still busy entering data
Easy things first, riders who also where on VDS last year (meaning I had some sort of ID for database use).

All male riders are there now
At least the ones we figured y’all needed for your teams. If you miss someone or if you spot an error, comment here (preferably) or mail me (see profile).

Thank you
but I just do a little magic on what Ursula, Chris and Jens (he loves Excel) hand me.

Ah, version 1.0
aka “the version that would have gotten me on the podium if I hadn’t made 27 changes that all seemed sooo clever at the time”
Dunno if Cattaneo should be included
He’ll ride for Lampre starting from august, but it’s not clear if that’s a transfer or a stagiaire deal
aout 2012 calendar...
is it official and final?
any chance to insert Coppa Agostoni on august? it’is the second part of “Trittico Lombardo” with Tre Valli Varesine and Coppa Bernocchi.
ps—→ right dates are: 16/8 Bernocchi, 17/8 Agostoni, 18/8 Tre Valli Varesine (source: www.cyclinglinks.nl/)
Not absolutely final,
but the best Chris and Ursula, with input from others, could come up with. I’ll ask!

Not run 2008-2011?
Strange to be returning as a 1.HC, especially on a Wednesday directly after Worlds.
"Beer helps." -- Ant1.
If I’m not mistaken, they had financial problem 2008-2011.
Mi-To is the oldest classic in the UCI calendar (first edition 1876)
Yes, great history, probably deserves a place on our calendar
I relayed your proposal to The Committee.
