Just this one time I post the Australian lists, because it is a beta test version that will end.
For those who are curious and/or think it is just fun to see their (temporary) Australian cyclist in the lists ; enjoy it  :) :

Here's a question.  In the CFF Dream team, we have in spots 1 & 2

Ben Walkins - PipiolosTeam - Climbing
Horace Ruup - PipiolosTeam - Climbing

With at least one of these at 8 stars.
You'll notice that my top cyclists have only 5 stars in climbing.  I'm curious about how or why the difference.

Btw: I'm intending to have either a sprint or cobbles team at reset (depends on what other people are doing - could also do hills if nobody wants it).

I think they have to be flat-climbers. The percentages we used for flat-climb in the GV-lists, don't compare to the flat-climb-icon (which relates to the star-system).

Flat-climb icon: Only Climbing, flat, stamina and teamwork matter.
Flat-climb GV-list: Climbing, flat, stamina, downhill, technique and teamwork matter.

My guess is that Pipiolos' climbers, will have relatively low stats in downhill and/or technique.

Don't know why anybody would want to be with grey old England, he must be a glutton for self-punishment.  Where I live, our winters are month after month of sunshine, so much sunshine you're amazed when any clouds arrive.

See pic of Brisbane in winter: Btw, pic is at the Southbank lagoon, looking at Brisbane's CBD.

I've had a few like that, who I've sold.  I'm pulling TT as well.  Here's a few of my best so far.

Stamina 21 Sprint 10
Climbing 65 Flat 58
Cobblestone 53 Technique 74
Downhill 4 Hills 14
Aggressiveness 22 Time Trial 69
Teamwork 48

Stamina 59 Sprint 20
Climbing 9 Flat 68
Cobblestone 29 Technique 72
Downhill 4 Hills 22
Aggressiveness 35 Time Trial 62
Teamwork 55

Stamina 66 Sprint 4
Climbing 5 Flat 68
Cobblestone 55 Technique 59
Downhill 27 Hills 22
Aggressiveness 24 Time Trial 68
Teamwork 13

My strategy will enable me to pull & train TTers next season as well, which should give me possibly 15 top tier TTers.

True, I stopped at the end of the Giro. Not worth it because of the huge training gap towards other 19yo's.
I had no luck this season, but one Australian recruit is awesome in this race below, he could win it when it will be a NT race :

Yep, he is  :))

By the way, I see you emigrated from Australia to England, and David Glass is British, not Australian.  :(
Your punishment for that wrong emigration-move will be that C.Fagan will beat your rider bigtime in the NT race.  :P  :))

without fox-tactics C.Fagan will probably win too but with fox tactics it will be a solo victory finishing minutes ahead of David Glass.  ;D

Without kidding ; if the talent rating of David Glass is good, he can  become a better cyclist as C.Fagan.
And I saw in the beta version that you did a great job as Australian NT manager.  8)

Sorry for the Dutch, but Kent just got excited hearing there will be National races soon, so he insisted that I should tell you guys that he is willing to participate in any upcoming cobbling races.

Maybe I will be a candidate too, always fun and honorable to do the NT job.  :) 8)
But I m still in doubt, 2 candidates at the moment, and I have been Australian NT manager many, many times.
So perhaps I grant/whish the fun to someone else this time. I still have some time to make the decision to become a candidate or not.

There is also Trevor Paxton:

Trevor Paxton   Age : 19   Wage : 594
Stamina : 57   Sprint : 46   Climbing : 25
Flat : 71   Cobblestone : 78   Technique : 38
Downhill : 62   Hills : 19   Aggressiveness : 23
Time Trial : 3   Teamwork : 10   Experience : 0
Price :   Days left :   Stages raced : 2

A little less than Kent, mostly because of his lack of talent (1 or 2), while Kent is talent 3, 4 or 5 (most probable talent 4).

Of course they both fit perfectly in Magnussen's training schedule. But that's a Norwegian.

I decided to be a candidate too.
Fine by me if someone else becomes NT manager, but if I will be elected you can expect the same as before :

# u21 lists every week.
# active and motivated NT manager.
# smart selection with eye for really good talents and possible xp spots.
# previews for each NT race.
# and last but not least ; your Australian cyclist will ride with fox-tactics.  :)
