"According to sources, in just a few minutes in a one-way conversation, officials told riders that the series was “out of money, pausing operations, and all contracts are terminated effective immediately,” said one source, who requested anonymity.
The call was brief, less than five minutes, and no one was allowed to ask any questions, sources said.
An e-mail was forwarded providing written and legal notices, including a reminder that a non-disclosure agreement remained in effect despite the termination of contracts.
Riders were paid through April — with salaries reportedly at only $3,000 per season for top riders — and had until Tuesday to put in expense reports."

Yeah, it's really a f**king charity and to "generate new revenue and monetize fan engagement" just for giggles ...“It’s not about becoming rich, it's about creating a better balance in the sport."
For those goldfish and other pets amongst us, OneCycling is the latest attempt by rich people to get even richer by making cycling more "modern" and making fans pay more for the privilege of watching pro-cycling.For those of us with goldfish minds, whats the TLDR on One Cycling?
