I read it Susan that's why?, if you know what I mean ... Kudos to CN

If he can't get a sponsor there will be some good riders entering the market, Ferderigo and Veokler to name but 2.

If he can't get a sponsor there will be some good riders entering the market, Ferderigo and Veokler to name but 2.

I believe the exodus has already begun: Fedrigo has already been announced for FDJ, Tschopp has signed for BMC and Trofimov to Katusha are three which I know of.

And Nicolas Vogondy to Cofidis for 2 years.

I wonder are they the bankers of the TdF, which might be connected to him getting sponsorship? his team performed fantastically (for a french team) this year at the TdF and it might have been realised that they are worth keeping.

 

[DAOTEC]

Well Benotti69 we have a name

The new sponsor is a bank


Caisse d'Epargne

Full name of the banking groupe: Banque Populaire-Caisses d'Epargne (BPCE)

it might that the jersey will say BPCE cause Caisse is part off it

Is that something or what .... shoot me if I'm wrong will yah

Jean-Rene Bernaudeau: "Everything should be complete by 1 October, to send the whole file to the UCI". While some rumors are sensed, the manager of the BBox refuses any confirmation.

"Everything must be gone on Friday 1 October at the UCI, it is the UCI who have set that ultimatum. So we are alife and there is hope. Thomas Voeckler trusts me in this, and there is real hope. It's like our life, it is always beautiful, but it is always difficult. I have great faith in my destiny, " he said to RMC.

So tomorrow we know? yes if tomorrow, it's OK, it will be thanks to my former coach Philippe de Villiers, who is now head of the General Council of Vendée and fighting for Bernaudeau support. But when you say tomorrow is not necessarily Monday ... yes it is !"

26/09/2010 at 8:23 p.m. | Team presentation scheduled for Tuesday

Having extended the deadline several times, the manager of BBox should finally reveal the future his team. Jean Rene Bernaudeau would seem he chose Tuesday to put an end to all uncertainty.

"These last two nights have been difficult said JRB. It is hoped that the future will be quieter, especially at the night after Tuesday evening. I'm sure it's going to happen," says Franck Bouyer at RMC.

"I do not need that signature at the bottom of a check to attract a partner who believes in this fabulous project which is unique for France and will lasts for 20 years", for his part, commented Jean Rene Bernaudeau.

Let's hope this works out.

Monday, September 27, 2010 - 11:52 | all eyes on Voeckler

Well craig1985 this is wat the French champ had to say about it.

"I am fortunate to have several teams that want me. They also understand my involvement with Jean-René. It is clear that it will not last two more weeks. I do not have a specific date".

'if I drop Jean-Rene, there is no team'


I want this to continue. We expect a miracle ... Said Thomas Voeckler to ouest-france.fr [http://sport365.fr]

[Moondance]

If this story is true it fails to make sense... Caisse had an excellent team already, and if they wanted to reduce the budget, I'm sure Unzue could've
managed.

If it was that they wanted to move to a French, rather than Spanish, team, why did they wait so long and let half the premium talent at BBox dart away. At least big star Voeckler, and talents Gautier and Rolland are still on the books.

Jean-Rene Bernaudeau told he was waiting for a response from a "global group."

Two days after the close of the deposit records of commitment for next season with the International Cycling Union (UCI), Jean-Rene Bernaudeau: "Unfortunately, I have no answer. I do not like that time passes but I still have until Friday, he said Wednesday. I continue my negotiations and I remain optimistic. "(With AFP)

As much as I want Bbox to continue, this is seriously turning out to be somewhat of a soap opera....

"Keep the pot stirring" seems to be the mantra.

De Villiers is leaving the presidency of Vendee

Great friend of Jean-René Bernaudeau and President of the General Council of Vendée, Philippe de Villiers said this morning that he would leave office at the end of October.
Important supporter in JRG is the Vendeen manager to find a buyer, the politician should nevertheless still be able to try to play a role before tomorrow October 1, 10:00 AM, the deadline for submitting the paperwork to the UCI.

The former presidential candidate said: "Following a deliberate decision, I'm going. As of October 31, I leave the presidency of the General Council of Vendee" Therefore I hope that this does not destroy the chances for the project team BBox.

Today's news of Contador and Mosquera won't be doing any good to JR's attempts to sway a sponsor.
