Rider Names - Tour de France
Originally created to report name corrections in the game. * Francisco Jose Ventoso (Movistar) appears in the game as Fransisco Jose Ventoso. I'm pretty sure his name is spelled "Francisco" not "Fransisco".*

Your wish is my command....
Not that it matters, but I think Joshua Edmonson is missing a 'D' in his name in the game (Joshua Edmondson)
Jose Joao Pimenta Mendes, is listed in the game as 27 and Portuguese, unfortunately we do not work on birthdays, so some riders may be listed as a year younger than they actually are in real life. But at this point in the season. I am not going through over 1600 riders to work out if their age is correct. That is done at the end of December, where I can just bump them all up a year
Jose Costa is a different rider for the same team....and he's not in the Dauphine startlist.....
I think the rider you have listed for NetApp Endura (APP) in the game as Jose Costa (BRA) is listed as Jose Mendes in ProCyclingStats.com and the official NetApp-Endura website (http://www.netapp-endura.com/en/team/riders/).
I was curious because he appears on the Start List for the Dauphine for NetApp at cyclingnews (http://www.cyclingnews.com/features/2013-criterium-du-dauphine-start-list), and at ProCyclingStats (http://www.procyclingstats.com/race/116954022-Criterium-du-Dauphine-WT-2...) but, I didn't find him listed for the Roadcc game and he didn't appear (as Costa) in any of the websites I visited...
He's also listed as Portuguese, not Brazilian. He's also 28. I think his rider profile says 38.
Eclectic
Neurotic
Ridiculous
Incredible
Quoting
Unbelievable
Egoist
Incredible?? Idiotic....Insane....Irrelevant...
Irrelevant is probably the most accurate...
Pretty much yup, with some slight amusement.
I am Scottish....So newer riders to the game might be wrong named. I have noticed a few more. But I cannot be bothered right now to sort it out.
I will do a sweep next time I cannot sleep (most like 3am) and sort them out for you.
Older riders are down to Dav(NM)e
That would be so sweet of you!
Here sweetie:

I hope it helps!
What would this game be without you Enrique? : )
In the game Yoann Bagot appears as Yoann. On the UCI website he appears as Yohan....
Much more fun?
It's still fun but you do add a certain something....
Ummm...
An annoying and irritating pathetic compulsion for the most irrelevant of details?
I probably need medication, but I can't afford that (!) either!
Oh... and this is still happening:
Not that it matters, but Joaquin Rodriguez is in the game with an 'n' at the end of Joaqui(N), but the Katusha website, Wikipedia entry and Facebook Fan page spell it out with an 'M' at the end, JoaquiM.
In the game Natnael Barhane appears as as Natnael B[A]rhane while in Cyclingnews and the UCI website he apaears as Natnael B[E]rhane (with an E rather than an A)
That's deffo Thor in the Klier, as it were...
That might be the case, will go look and then its my case of tagging them wrong
I was actually wondering about the photo of Andreas Klier. It looks more like Hushovd than the one of Hushovd.
Looks alright to me
as does Saramotins 
Ok, looking at the Ventoso Fan Facebook page:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Francisco-Ventoso-Movistar-Team-/192454177...
Francisco... not Fransisco... I know it's not a big deal, but... it irks me to see a Spanish name butchered like that...
Oops. Guess you fixed it immediately... Didn't catch it till I checked...
Before i pointed it out, if you put saramotins into 'find' it said 'no rider of this name', however it did recognise the name Saramontins. It was misspelled, until I pointed it out. Thank you for the quick change. So Gkam84 Thanks for the p*ss take.
Saramotins or Saramontins
