With the update published some minutes ago, we removed the variants from the years 2013-2018 for the Giro d’Italia, the Tour de France and the Vuelta. We did this in order to create space for further updates, especially regarding the equipment files which take much space.

For everyone who had one of these variants as the current variant in his career, we reuploaded the files to this folder: LINK IN THE DISCORD

Just select the files you need (for example if you need the Giro 2015, just search for “Giro 2015” in the search function), download them and put them into the WorldDB folder or CM_stages of PCM 22.

WorldDB folder: \Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\1767560\2819013195\Stages
CM_stages: \Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Pro Cycling Manager 2022\CM_Stages

Thank you for your understanding!
