Other Pro Cycling Manager - Orica-GreenEDGE

[threenewpadlocks]

Here is a story about Pro Cycling Manager, a management game based around the sport of Cycling.
Pro Cycling manager is created by the French Company Cyanide and it's not a very impressive game to say the least. But hey, it's the only one out there.

A bit of info about this game:
This game encompasses both the management (training, contracts, races etc) and actual in-game race itself.

I'm Playing on PCM2011 with pcmdaily.com 2012DatabaseV2.

Team Roster:

Orica Sponsor Goals:

As you can see, the sponsor Orica have noticed our very sprint-oriented team and have set us the two hard goals of the sprint jersey in the world's two largest tours, the Giro d'Italia and the Tour de France. We'll have a go by sending Gossy to the Tour and Allan Davis to the Giro.

1st at the Vuelta points seems unlikely as most of our sprinters will be winding down their season. We might send a young sprinter but our team will be a backup, based around a young backup team. We'll also see if we can let a young Cam Meyer into a top 10 in a grand tour

GreenEDGE Goals:

GreenEDGE are basing themselves around the cobbles, with their two big goals to be top 10 finishes in the big cobbled classics of the year, Paris-Roubaix and the Tour of Flandres. Though we don't have a very large support team, we have a gifted cobbled rider in Sebastian Langeveldt who is very capable of finishing top 10 in these two events.

Team Leaders:

Simon Gerrans

\
Simon is our best hope for a lot of things. We'll have him lined up for a season beginning in March, with either Paris-Nice or Tirreno-Adriatico where he hopes to have a stage win. He'll then move on to the longest professional race, the 300km Milan-San Remo, where we hope to pull off an unlikely victory. He'll then take a break before moving onto the Tour de France, and after that take another spell before moving onto the World Champs where we think he is one of the favourites.

Matthew Goss

Matty Goss wil have a busy season, being our number 1 sprinter. We'll begin him off by placing him in the two tours in the Middle East, the Tours of Qatar and Oman, before some minor races in April. We'll then prepare for his TdF green jersey quest (one of our sponsors objectives) by warming him up in the Netherlands. We'll give him a spell before seeing if he can have a go at a few one-day races at the back end of the year.

More to Come!

 

[Pie 4 Life]

Nice work mate, good to have a cycling story on here!

 

[threenewpadlocks]

Just finished my schedule and training for the entire team. Took a while.

Ok, here is the first race of the year. The Australian National Championships in Victoria. We hope to keep the national jersey amongst, us, though it will be tough with other great riders such as Cadel Evans (BMC) in contention.

Here we have two leaders: Gerro for a breakaway, or Gossy for a sprint. Though with the low amount of riders, anybody could take the victory!

First time I've ever done this so hopefully I get it right! Screens, Results and Report to come!

Ok, here we are for the Australian National Championships 2012!

Favourites (in order)
Evans (BMC), Gerrans (OGE), Haussler (GMS)

The day starts and with a large team we decide to attack early, sending Bobridge and Davis into the early attack. Bobridge of course is the defending champion.

However with nobody else joining in to contribute to the BOTD we decide to sit back and rejoin the group. Roe (BMC) and Haas (GMS) are working hard at the front of the group for their respective leaders Evans and Haussler

Finally a break gets away - Hayman (SKY) and Calabria (TT1) are the members. We let the break go, but they aren't strong enough to stay away for long. We then decide to send out Bobridge, O'Grady and Meyer out for another shot at a breakaway. This time, they stay away.

Finally, with about 30 km to go, the favourite Evans launches an attack. Haussler and our own Clarke go with him, followed soon by Gerrans. Is this the winning move?

Slowly but surely, Evans pings back our three riders at the front. Gerrans is disappointing, not having the form or fitness to keep up.

We decide to send Goss on a late attack. Though it is probably too little too late.

Can anyone catch Evans?

The answer is no, dropping off everyone and winning by a hefty margin. Goss manages to outsprint his teammates for 2nd place.

So overall, disappointing for the team not to receive the champion's jersey of our own country, but full credit to the current Tour de France holder, Cadel Evans. A well deserved national jersey.

bad luck.

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

I had a crack at one the PCM demos a few years back, but couldn't get the hang of the thing and gave up. I think the thing that really killed it was when I told the team to ride as a group and they never did.
I haven't looked at any of the newer versions, they probably wouldn't run on this laptop anyway (I am in desparate need of an upgrade to both laptop and deskto machines).

Will follow this story. Bad luck in the Aus champs, but Cadel is not an easy rider to beat. I assume you have entered some riders into the Time Trial as well.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

Will follow this story. Bad luck in the Aus champs, but Cadel is not an easy rider to beat. I assume you have entered some riders into the Time Trial as well.

Thanks. I think I erred by sending too many riders out to attack, I should've used my large team to try and keep the bunch together and chase Cadel back. Oh well. Two on the podium is still decent.

I'll do the TT now, but don't be hopeful, It will be very hard to beat Porte and Evans.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

The boys are still recovering from Cadel's heroic victory here at the nationals. I managed to get a quick word with Neil Stephens, the head of the team:

With about five different riders able to win at the Nats, it's a shame that we didn't win. But all focus ahead to the TT championships, with Bobridge our best hope. But don't overlook riders like Durbridge, our neo-pro who was last year's U/23 World Champion

Well said Stevo!

Here is the route for the National TT Championships. A fairly straightforward route around country Victoria. Although we had the option of sending up to 9 riders, we decided to only send those who had a realistic chance of winning the thing, so we sent 6 riders. Bobridge has the form and fitness to go back to back here.

Favourites: (In order)
Evans (BMC), Porte (BMC), Rogers (BMC)
Then
Bobridge, Durbridge, C. Meyer (all OGE)

Sorry guys, PCM glitched up and I didn't get any screens. I will do a text analysis though for all you how it occurred.

Cameron Meyer was the first out of everyone in the TT. He posted an intermediate time of 27m26 seconds. His brother Travis was a 1'10" behind followed by Lancaster, who was 44" behind. Nobody beat Cameron Meyer's time until Mick Rogers did by a whopping 43 seconds a bit later.

By that time Meyer had finished with 55'46" and that wasn't beaten until Mick Rogers came by and beat that by 18 seconds. Hepburn and Durbridge didn't do that well at the intermediates.

Bobridge, third last before Evans and finally Porte, was slow off the blocks and was 2nd behind Rogers' time at the intermediate check by 14 seconds. Both these times were subsequently beaten by Evans and Porte.

Bobridge turned on the screws in the second half of the race, but slowed down toward the end as he had overexerted himself. But was it enough to take the lead? Yes! He beat Rogers by a massive 54 seconds. Now a nervous wait to see if his time could be bettered by those behind him and the favourites.

Evans rolls in, and NO! He's 13 seconds behind Bobridge.

Now only Porte, and thats.

NO! He's behind both Evans and Bobridge 30sec behind the leader and 17 seconds behind Evans.

Bobridge is the Australian National TT Champion!!

Bobridge softens the disappointment by losing his National RR Jersey by winning the TT Jersey! Well done!

First ever win for the new team Orica-GreenEDGE!

[threenewpadlocks]

Here we are for our first ever WT race, and in our home country!

Santos Tour Down Under:
Stage 1

Route+Team

We had a talk to Neil Stephens about the team and tactics (for the entire race and for this stage):

We are here, one year on from where we launched our team. We're bringing a mix of our international and Australian recruits. We'll bring three leaders here: Simon Clarke is our best chance for an overall up Willunga Hill and we think that he can complete our sponsor's goal by finishing in the Top 5. Julian Dean, one of two NZers on our squad, has a chance to show off his sprinting skills before returning to his usual role of a lead-out man later in the year. We'll use Stuey and Matthew as his leadout train, and Fumi as some support. Jack Bobridge is coming off good form, from his 3rd place in the Nationals after a long breakaway and his victory in the TT championships. We'll use him for lots of different roles. He'll be instrumental in setting up our sprint train with his TT skills; however that is only a last resort as we are backing his breakaway and climbing skills. Finally, we have one of the very few climbers on the team, Christian Meier, for some support to Clarkey on the climbs. Fumi will be our jack-of-all-trades domisteque, collecting waterbottles, pulling back breakaways, setting up the sprint train, and will probably have an opportunity for a breakaway of his own on one of the hillier stages.

Today's stage is very straightforward. Not quite hilly, but not exactly pan-flat, it's a good opportunity for a breakaway to stay away, and we'll be looking to contribute, with either Jack Bobridge, Fumi Beppu or Christian Meier. Regardless of the breakaway's fate, we'll be looking to set up for a stage win for Julian Dean, with Stuey and Matty Wilson, the two veterans of the team, helping Julian (another veteran) get over the line. Let's see how things pan out!

Favourites: Cavendish, Rojas, Hushvod
I've taken all the screens, but I'm away for the week. I'll upload and hopefully get a lot of it done next friday. Don't forget this thread!

 

[threenewpadlocks]

We start the first stage of the TDU with high hopes for Julian Dean, though hoping to get Christian or Fumi into the break.

A large break with Christian Meier and the most notable rider Mark Renshaw gets away but doesn't stay away for long.

The break gets pulled back before a smaller group of three is included. We send Fumi Beppu, the Japanese national champion and a breakaway specialist, into the break.

Not being the best sprinter, we don't contest the intermediate sprints but however we get Fumi to attack up the only climb (really a hill) of the day so he can ride into tomorrow's KOM jersey.

However the break of three never really got leeway and despite some late attacks by all three of them the group got comfortably caught.

With the break caught, it's about going through the motions of setting up a sprint train. Without strong leadout, we'll be looking to put Dean in a good position before seeing if he latch onto another wheel.

We put Dean in a good position however with the stretch we are getting on the main group, I feel we pay have pushed our riders too hard too early.

With all the hard work done, the split second choice is made to leave our leadout in a strong position and latch onto the back of Cavendish's wheels, even though that is giving away a few metres.

We start our sprint, just managing to get some ground on Cavendish...

But the World Champ is too strong. Despite starting a fair way back, the two next favourites Hushvod and Rojas pip Dean on the line and we come just short of a podium place.

However not all doom and gloom for Orica-GreenEDGE as our Japanese rider, Fumi Beppu has ridden in the mountain's classification jersey and will ride in it tomorrow.

Final Screens and Results:

All in all considering the strength of some of the other sprinters (Bozic, Degenkolb and Bos) a 4th place isn't bad. Not only that, Beppu in the climbers jersey is a bonus as well. A good day of racing.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

Second stage of the Tour Down Under:

A slightly hillier stage where we'll be looking to do well for Clarke and Bobridge. Hopefully we'll do well.

 

[Gibbsy]

This is a good read dude. Keep it up.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

Tour Down Under: Stage 2

We send Fumi Beppu into the break for the second consecutive day. With a hillier finish, there is effectively no chance of him dropping the breakaway group of 10, so we let him sit back and not use too much energy.

Though by virtue of being if the previous day's breakaway, a few sprint points could do no harm. Not being a good sprinter, Fumi attacks a few kilos out from the sprint point and manages to hold off a few fast finishers.

The mountain climb is up next. There are a few strong climbers in the group so any amount of points will be good enough to hold the lead. We won't be able to counter a late attack so we send him on an early attack, seeing if he can find a gap on the flat before holding off the better climbers when the gradient starts.

The tactic works - almost. Fumi narrowly holds on for second place in the mountain climb. It'll be should be enough to retain his jersey.

Attacking over the flat is a lot easier and he takes the maximum sprint points for the next intermediate sprint. That should also put him in the points jersey for tomorrow, unless something unusual happens like Cav winning the stage (unlikely)

As the rain continues to fall (in January in Country South Australia, ???) we send Fumi back into the group before the others and let him rest his legs. He's done well to take two jerseys and we want to keep him fresh for future breakaways.

As the peleton goes through the motions of bringing back the breakaway, the bunch is all back together and with about 15 kms left we send Clarke and Bobridge to up the tempo at the front of the group, and perhaps even breakaway.

As you can see, however with the hillier finish Bobridge's skills aren't as great and he falls back. However Clarke manages to use up the tack whilst getting a decent lead on the bunch. However, some late attacks from riders such as Voigt (RNT) and Hushvod (BMC) means he is soon joined.

As we enter the final kilometre, Clarke has nothing in the tank as we hold on for dear life, hoping for at least a top-5 finish. Julian Dean, though not being much of a climber, and his partner Stuey O'Grady are feeling pretty fresh so we move them both up for a early sprint/late attack.

Can Clarke hold on for a podium place?

YES, YES HE CAN!

Hushvod wins by a clear margin but Clarke has the strength to see off a tired Voigt (RNT) and a fast finishing Nieve (EUS) to come third, and put us in a very good position. Stuey also finishes strongly in the pack for a top-10 finish. Final screens (results, jersey presentations)

One thing we didn't expect is Jack Bobridge to lead the young rider's jersey - though on a countback. We're not going to bother defending it, though it is a bonus to have.

Our results and standing in the General Classification. We have three in the top 10 now, which gives us a good chance of reaching our sponsor's goal of a top-5 finish.

Tour Down Under Stage 3 Route:

 

[Matt121]

Looking good so far

 

[threenewpadlocks]

On With Tour Down Under Stage three.

We're going through the usual with our team - Fumi in the break and lets set up Dean for the sprint.
Here's Fumi getting into the BOTD in his sprinter's jersey (two consecutive days of irony - yesterday he wore the climber's jersey despite not being a climber, today he's wearing the sprinter's jersey despite not being a sprinter)

He takes maximum points at both sprint points and the mountain by attacking early.

We're going through the motions as the break gets caught and we start to start up a sprint train for Dean. Stuey's got some form going so we'll let him be the leadout and Bobridge is feeling fit so he's also the penultimate lead out as well.

All our riders are feeling fresh and fit, and they're all putting in to put Dean in a good position. I have a good feeling about today.

Good shot of our riders heading around a final bend, seeing all our sprinters and the trains in action. Hushvod, the overall leader, second favourite and wearing the Ochre jersey, is right on the back of Cavendish's wheel and is using him. Rojas, Huratovich and other sprinters form a line for the best position.

What's this? A perfect lead out? Cavendish out of position? Riders sprinting too early? Things couldn't have gotten any better. Cavendish looks like he's leaving his sprint too late and he's lost his lead-out wheel. He's out of position, and what's better Dean and O'Grady are feeling great and we've (or I) have done everything perfectly. Most other riders have started well back in the group and we're in perfect position. Is this the day for a stage win?

As we head round the final bend, Dean is sprinting well - however, so are a lot of people starting from the group way back.

What's going to happen? Cav finishes strongly (as he always does, no wonder he's won so many TdF stages) but the timing of our own sprint was impeccable. We have more legs and effort than the other sprinters who started too early, but still, Dean isn't a strong sprinter. Can he hold on?

Yes, he can hold on for second place!

Cav, despite doing practically everything wrong in the sprint, shows why he's the world champion by finishing strongly. Dean, doing everything right, still can't beat him! However we manage to beat everybody else in the sprint, a great result considering the strength of the other sprinters in the race. It seemed just like a bad day for everyone, nearly everyone either became out of position, or sprinted too early or late. However, we are very happy with a 2nd place only to the greatest sprinter on the planet and we'll take it with open arms.

Final results, screens etc.

Cav leapfrogs Clarke and moves to second overall with the time bonuses.

Fumi keeps the Points and Mountains jersey. (He doesn't look like giving up the mountains jersey now with a strong lead)

Jack keeps his young rider's jersey

Stage Four to come!

 

[Howard Littlejohn]

That was quite a bunch sprint in the end and a good second in the stage.
As for Cavendish, doing what would be wrong for everybody else can work for him.

The srpint, the mountain, and the young rider titles and getting Clarke back into the top three would be an incredible result if you could do it. Will the prime focus be on the jerseys or Clarke from now on?

It was just one of those days. In the first sprint stage, Dean was having a +5 daily form day (daily form varies from -5 to +5, but hardly every extends from -2 to +2 either way) - and for stage 3 I got my lead out perfect, O'Grady and Dean also both had positive days. Everybody else seemed to stuff up their sprints.

There's three stages left - a medium flat stage (with two climbs for points), the queen stage up Old Willunga Hill (and key decider in the overall standings) and then another flat stage. I'll send Beppu in the break to keep his mountains jersey, and set Dean up for the sprint, but in the next stage after that I'm going to be protecting Clarke all the way. I doubt I'll get Beppu to hold onto the points jersey but the mountains jersey looks likely. Dean again in the final stage.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

I've been busy today and got things on tomorrow as well, don't expect to see any updates until sunday/monday. But I'll try and get the entire TDU done and with any luck have the Tours of Qatar and Oman done as well.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

OK here we are with stage four of the TDU

We decide to let Fumi into the break yet again, even though he is exhausted. He'll be able to rest up tomorrow and lose some time.

He collects maximum points at both sprint and mountain points, but most of them were close

Just as we get our sprint train going after the last major climb and Beppu finds himself unable to hold off the peleton, oops - massive crash! Thankfully we've spent the effort of keeping all our riders at the front but it doesn't stop Christian Meier being part of the carnage. With over half the people falling, it's a reduced peleton that will fight it out for the stage win.

Fumi Beppu gets caught by the bunch as we set off for a slightly reduced sprint train. Dean hasn't got good form going, and our entire leadout suffered going up the final hill, so we're not expecting a good result.

Oooh crap. For some reason, all of the sprinters think that it's a good idea to tailgate my leadout. Cav is in a bad position but he's still favourite.

Not a good result in the sprint as those hanging onto our wheels manage to overtake us early. But where's Cav?

He's being covered by the buttons (silly me) - still, Hushvod is going strong, very strong, and Dean looks stuffed already. So strong, that he takes the stage win, Cav gets third and I get fifth with Dean.

Final screens:

Hushvod extends his lead in the leader's jersey with time bonuses. A good comeback in the sprint after a 6th the day before, and being a better climber for sprinters it seems he had the strength to go over the final hill and sprint to victory for his second stage win.

Beppu holds onto his points and mountains jersey. The mountains jersey is guarenteed, the points not so.

Bobridge has a serious chance of holding his young rider's jersey, but unfortunately none of the other contenders were really caught up in the crash that took out half the peleton.

We take the lead in the Teams competition as well.

By virtue of having not many people in the crash, a lot of them move up in the general standings. An example is Beppu moving from 40 to 28th in the overall.
