Unfortunatly, Sandro Montelbano get injured today, in Monaco TT. « Ride fast is good, but stay on your bike is better » said the Manager Thomas Anderson. A private joke probably, quite funny when you know Thomas' bike was stolen the last week and that he won't ride for some weeks, being short of cash.
And because of this injury, Sandro won't be there for the 2 last races of the season, including the World Championship ITT. A shame when you know what he can do, but we'lll try to use this injury at our advantage.
He won't be able to race for a week ? So he won't race for 3 or 4 weeks ! We are going to recharge his top form for Essex ! But that's not all.
Maybe some of you know that we'll hire a new rider soon : Tom Gustavsen. Firstly because he is a great time trialer, but also because he will allow us to sign for for Cymru Taith, a second division tour alike Essex, where Montelbano could be as good as in Essex. So no need to say that with TF, he will be really hard to challenge.
Hillers, Time trialers, climbers, captains, be warned, Montelbano is coming in Wales.

Malheureusement, au cours d'un CLM à Monaco, Sandro Montelbano a chuté et s'est blessé. « Aller vite c'est bien, mais rester sur tes 2 roues c'est mieux ». Ces mots sont ceux du Manager Thomas Anderson. Cette petite blague montre bien la complicité entre les deux hommes.
Et cette blessure tombe au mauvais moment puisqu'elle va priver Sandro des 2 dernières courses de la saison, dont les championnats du monde de CLM. Un vrai gâchis étant donné la belle forme qu'il affichait. Mais qu'à cela ne tienne, nous allons tâcher de tirer avantage de cette situation.
Il ne peut courir pendant une semaine ? Il se reposera le triple ! Nous allons recharger sa top forme pour l'Essex Tour ! Et ça ne s'arrête pas là.
Comme certains d'entre vous le savent peut-être, nous allons bientôt accueillir Tom Gustaven. Il sera un apport indéniable aux vues de ses qualités de coureur contre la montre, mais il nous permettra aussi de participer au Cymru Taith, un Tour de division 2 qui requiert les même aptitudes que l'Essex Tour, et où Montelbano pourrait sans aucun doute faire très fort. Alors en top forme, il faudra s'accrocher pour les autres.
Soyez tous prévenus, Montelbano arrive au Cymru Taith !

Who knows, but after 5 victories in Essex without TF, it will be much more harder next season when he will be in TF...
I give up using my TF for Jégou in next's Essex: nobody - NOBODY - can beat a TF Montelbano!
Unless he gets injured, he'll win both Cymru and Essex.
I'll use Jégou's TF in Vuelta or GT.
No Gustavsen won't be captain : he fits Cymru quite good, but Montelbano is better IMO.
Gustavsen may join as TM and TTer. Not sure yet.
So you won't use Gustavsen as captain? You hired him just so you can join Cymru?
In fact 45 days rule was to say it takes about 45 days to recharge i think, but anyway Montelbano used his last TF about 6 seasons ago
45 days rule is a myth lol
It should take about 25-30 days max to drop to 75 RS, then 3 days for 3 races, and 5 days of RB.
And Cymru sign up ends day 39, so i have 50 days ^^
Thanks
Yes, you can not create topform within 45 days of the previous one. I think that implies the 65/75 thing also.
Bummer but, a nice tf moment but remember the 45 day rule. I forgot.
