    You have a better designed course with half the total elevation metres and you get a true race. If only they did the mt Kigali loop in the world's RR.

    WIDAR and Novak are the two riders from the under 23's that I believe can win races in 2026.

    DeBondt and Capiot are the type of riders Jayco should have been signing 5 years ago. They are rubbish in the flemish one day classics and these are the style of riders who can make the final of these races.

    I believe they had their targets and were outbid for others. It seems they've decided to keep their budget for next year where I believe they will make a big play for Groves. 2026 will be a consolidation year where they hope their quality riders in Matthews, O'Connor, Schmid and Plapp have good...

    At the moment Welsford does not have a team. No surprise if Jayco makes a play because his price would have dropped.
