Teams & Riders Israel Premier Tech

Not much else out there yet. But in terms of your question: why bother? Now the podium suspense is lifted.

i believe that a certain rider, that already won many races this year, from a small country located near Italy, that is riding for certain middle eastern rich country, is going to win this race this time, probably beating a certain other rider, from a country in north America, that is also is riding for the same team.

North America.

North America.

sorry, you are right. i didn't mean to be racist or something towards certain population occupying that country, which reside in north America.

I'm not sure which is more laughable. The 30 million Gee is being sued for, or him wanting to leave without paying anything.

Anyway for all parties it's got to be better just to get a settlement done and dusted and move on. Arbiter Leadbelly says 3.4 (or whatever fraction he had left on his contract when he quit) times his salary and he's free.

The forum's own losbrolin confirms that Morin is the Canadian that is joining the devo squad next year.

Dawid Lewandowski (Polish U23 RR champ) also looks very likely to join. I said the same thing last year, but I think this time it's correct.

I see the Cannonball got a new one year deal - which is interesting, because at GPCQM he said that he wanted to continue for another two. But I guess the team said "Montreal and no further". And to be honest, not for no reason.

They should have tried to convince Woods to do the same, by the way. He's had a bad year and there's of course a chance 2026 would be equally poor, but this now is not really how his career should have ended.

I think with Woods, it wasn't so much the bad year (or two) though it probably didn't help, but the dangers associated with cycling or that's what he talked about anyway. Probably the right call on his part.

Boivin I think still has a bit to give as a team mate. Bennett I'm less sure of. However if the team is really light on GC types then I guess top-15 type results in one week WT races at least will give some points and visibility on some stages.

tours is coming , so if the team really want to annoy the protestors, they can replace the star of david symbol on their shirts, with a big cross.
