Foster's Good Cycle would like to hire Ed! Welcome aboard and have a good, errm, cycle! :lol:

I very much doubt that, considering that this particular Ed Kevin was born in 1991... :lol:

Ed Kevin is my actual name, you know, in real life, so I guess he crops up a lot in the Perry forum. Ah well, apologies if it affects the consistency of the universe :lol:

Fosters Good Cycle is the first team to be edited in to the database complete with all 9 riders (including Ed "Shinji" Kevin).
First thing to note is that this editor is not the friendliest, the "Add Team" feature is simply broken so instead I edited an existing team, booted all their riders out, and added all your riders in. :lol:

Also for any cycle novices out there, in general each rider will perform a specific role for the team. These range from "Leader", the person the team wants to win.
"Sprinter" (These people go out to win points for mass sprint finishes rather then overall time) "Free Element", These people are the wild cards, they are the ones that will break away from the main pack if they feel like it or often ride separate from their team to mess with others. And Finally "Team Mate", These people do everything in their power to help their Team Leader and Sprinter, it is their job to fetch water, lead the peleton in catching the break aways and setting up the sprinter for finishes. Unfortunately when placing somebody in a team I can not specify what role they will be chosen for by the AI.

You should pick 3 skills for Sucahyo and Singh because otherwise they will be at a disadvantage to the other riders. Welcome

Whilst I can not put down specific year wins, nor sprint champion. There is the option to make a rider a "Former World Road Race Champion" "Former World Time Trial Champion" "Former National Road Race Champion" "Former National Time Trial Champion."

You can add these as you wish, I don't know if they add any performance but it is cool backstory.
