Hello!
The staff in Avataria have now made some detailed plans for the next month. It includes rider sales, jobs, practice races, Top Forms, TT-center and overall budget for all this.
Day 22:
Pietermaritzburg SA - This is a race we should win by a good margin. Tobias Carrilho is ranked as one of the favorites, is in TF and have the best DH-guide in Solvang. Predicted points: 80 (I got 80!)
Day 25:
Kontiolahti (ITT) - This race is team captain Filip Hamre's first race of the season. He will ride as practice to gain som raceshape.
Hemsedal GP - On home soil we start with Carrilho as captain and Solvang as DH-guide again. Hamre will also race this race as practice, with a higher intensity. A lot of good teams and riders here, but the TF should result in a top 3. Predicted points: 40 (I got 30! Sabotaged my own race by not using water carrier and 2 riders on practice. Afraid of too many points!)
Day 27:
This day the sign-up for Norway Tour will open, but Avataria will not join! The reason for this will be explained.
Day 28:
Fterolakka - Amfiklia - Another race with hard downhills. The last race Carrilho will ride as captain with his TF. He will probably be a huge favorite also here, but since no teams yet have signed up we can't predict a win. Predicted points: 60 (Tobias Carrilho suffered from a mechanical issue and ended 10th)
Day 32:
This day we will sell one of our biggest talents, Hubert Lowik. He will stay in Norway and be trained by Drake Racing. We will bring in a new norwegian jobber the same day.
Day 33:
Race to the Wall - The first race of the season where Hamre will be captain. Predicted points: 20
After this race we will sell our young team mate Castulo. His RV will be 64k, so we will get enough money for a TT-center and raise Hamre's skill to 51 in TT.
Day 38:
Signing up for Perm Tour.
Day 40:
Losing 130 points and drops down to 4th div. Hamre races as practice in Polish Zyte Race.
Day 41:
Signing up for Race of the Minutemen.
Day 45:
Hamre will be in TF, and ready for Perm Tour, RoTM and Brescia Uphill!
Hope our fanclub of 376 fans will like this detailed plan.
Best Regards,
Karl Strand, PR-Manager

Too bad you were unlucky in Perm and behind after the ITT in RotM. Hamre has to hunt stages now (but can still end up top-9 in GC).
Good job Chris. Now lets see how it goes ;-) hehe
I'm actually 3 points over 4th div. WOW...
I DID IT! And it was close! I'm 8 points over 4th div.
Jeg tenkte faktisk på det! Men han jeg skal ha må jeg kjøpe for 68 432 (tilbakebetaling av lån) :P
Ser du skal signere ny norsk jobber, Ole Reitan må være perfekt der ;)
Thanks! I am pretty excited :-)
It does! Congrats with MRT Benny ;)
Looks pretty good Chris :-)
Thnx Benny! My first prediction was correct, 80 points in Pietermaritzburg SA! Need minimum 30 points and maximum 150 points now.
Good luck!
Well yes, as alway! :P But going to have great DP on hole team before Perm, hope it works fine ;)
Nice plan Chris! Aren't you afraid for injuries? See you in RotM then.
I don't worry about such things as tours and being in top form and all that. I guess theres an advantage to never being able to be the first 17 or 18 to get in to a tour...
See you in Perm Tour. Hartmann is planned to be in TF for that.
Was planning to go for the "new" Norway Tour since it's on home soil. But when I saw I'm loosing 130 points between Perm and RoTM Sign-Up I couldn't resist! I need minimum 110 points and maximum 230 in this period to make it happen!
Perm-RoTM double is a good idea indeed, couldn't do it last season and I'm now too high this season
Good luck!
A 2 tour TopForm period? Nice approach.
Sounds like a good plan. Good luck!
