    He’s also tied to Correndon remember.

    I wonder if they’re aiming WT and will hoover up some Katusha fallout.

    MvdP attracts quite enough money on his own to build a team around himself...

    There's a small chance that WvAs tour exploits are making him a bit jealous though which is the only possible reason I can see him joining a WT team before the Olympics. But I think he's got more of a brain than that...

    Using Muc-off for a spill in aisle 4 seems quite wasteful.

    Groenewegen and Roglic staying put until 2023. Surprised by the latter if Dumoulin really is on his way.

    Trentin to CCC....

    Would make sense for them to check their ego a bit and do the joint leader thing at the Tour in order to mount a proper challenge against Ineos.
    Or go to separate GT's with a decent shot at winning both.

    Stay at Bahrain I'd think. There's going to be a lot of changes in staff there and I think Dennis may find in Ellingworth the type of team boss he's looking for.

    Sounds like they may be hiring a rider from the olden days too - Called Cavendish.
    Fckin' Quintana … that creep can roll, man.

    That would be an absolutely textbook Bahrain move. They must be in a bidding war with Katusha over who can pay the most

    Not sure on contracts but wouldn't be surprised if they were called Bahrain McLaren next year with a new bike/wheel sponsor.

    De Rosa and Factor's teams are folding so maybe one of them?

    Don't think he's in a position to dictate what bike he gets to ride anymore unfortunately.

    Markel Irizar is retiring at the weekend after ten seasons at Trek (and five at Euskaltel before that). He rode 21 Grand Tours, finishing 19 of them.

    Mikkel Bjerg rumoured to be on his way to Ineos. He's already a two time U23 TT world champion which is rather impressive, particularly considering that he's still only 20.

    Wow. Out with the old, in with the new. That's a lot of young talent they are collecting.

    Cant imagine Poels leaving. He really seems the personality that it all centers around.

    And to Sunweb.....going to be one of the worst teams next year I think.

  • Three nice years for Elissonde there kept as a sort of reserve team player for the Giro as a domestique. Hopefuly a bit more exposure at TREK

    Kiry's retiring? That's disappointing, enjoyed watching him impassively putting the hurt on for mile after mile.

    Yeah but I assumed that as he came back he was good for another couple of seasons.
