I'll always associate House with winning the British Championship with the best start list ever. It may never be beaten. Every British pro of note from Hammond and Hunt through to Luke Rowe was there. Even wildcards like the pursuit boys, Malcolm Elliott, Liam Killeen and Matt O'Brammeier. The break was Wiggins & Froome FFS.Just heard about House - one of my favourite riders on the domestic scene, hope he doesn't disappear off our radar completelyTwitter: @RichN950 -

Off the back of his ride at the USAPC, Julien Bernard signs a 2yr deal with Trek. Will be interesting to see if he can eclipse Jeff Bernard's career.0

Sideways move at best?Uran to Cannondale confirmed'Performance analysis and Froome not being clean was a media driven story. I haven’t heard one guy in the peloton say a negative thing about Froome, and I haven’t heard a single person in the peloton suggest Froome isn’t clean.' TSP0 -
Going by yesterday's Backstage Pass, Rob Power is joining Orica Greenedge. Turns out he signed during the Tour Down Under, described by Matt White as "one of the most exciting climbing talents we've seen in Australian cycling for a very, very long time".
Took this years GC at Giro della Valle d'Aosta along with a stage. Ruled out of L'Avenir with a knee injury, but could be another interesting climber in their group. Comes from the same club in Perth as Durbridge and the Meyers.0 -

Yeah, him joining OGE was announcing back in Jan. OGE have first dibs on the riders going through the Jayco-AIS Academy system0 -
I was very impressed with what I saw from him in last year's Coppa Agostoni.
He was going toe-to-toe with Nibali in attacking from the small leading group that had gone clear on the climb, where he had also attacked."Science is a tool for cheaters". An anonymous French PE teacher.0 -
These guys are out of contract, anyone know what has been decided for their 2016 team:
GVA, Dennis, Pozzo, Viviani, Breschel, Albasini, Malori, Meintjes, Nieve, Scarponi, Formolo, Kiriyenka, GuardiniContador is the Greatest0 -
Meintjes
“It’s still undecided and I’m out of contract. There’s quite a bit of interest but we’ll see. MTN is a good place, that’s all I’m saying. This team is always growing, I don’t see this place as a limiting factor,” Meintjes told Cyclingnews.
If those comments were on the vague side, his agent at least provided something more tangible.
“A few teams have been asking about him but his future lies with MTN. The team is backing him for the future and I think staying is in his best interests. That’s where he’ll end up,” his agent said.

Sorry if been covered previously - has MTN sorted out sponsorship now ?0 -
I hope Viviani and Kiriyenka get sorted out soon, both still have a lot to offer.'Performance analysis and Froome not being clean was a media driven story.

Not yet, but it's expected to be Dimension Data. Crazy how much that company's grown in the last 15 years.Sorry if been covered previously - has MTN sorted out sponsorship now ?0 -

Can't see Sky letting Kiry go. As for Viviani, it wasn't disclosed how long he'd signed for - though whether he has a 2nd year with Sky or whether one year with another team, he'll be wanting blocks of time out from the road next year - Track World Champs in Feb, and then prep for Rio.
It's one of the things that annoys me about Sky - they rarely disclose the contract duration when they announce new signings. Simply don't see the point of leaving out that detail. Other teams mention it, why can't they.0 -

Still only 20, so another year outside the hothouse of a WT team makes some sense. He's a genuine talent.Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.0 -

Sky need to pull their finger out and give him his race programme for his stagiaire stint. As of a week ago, he still didn't know which races he'd be riding
Hopefully he's riding ToB for them. If not, i'd think he'll be leading the GB National team again0 -

Hmm, this is weird, it was reported up-thread that he and his best mate got a two year contract at Sky.Contador is the Greatest0 -

Alex Peters signed a 2 year contract after stagiaire role, with Tao just having a stagiaire position0 -

don't know why but I always think of Bernaudeau as a bit intimidating and old skool when he is obviously not - would be very surprised if they can't turn this round - even the Vendee region to put some more in the pot?L'equipe reporting that Bernaudeau has a new sponsor - as yet unnamed- and Chavanel's signature.
