Team Ineos Discussion thread

I like Ned, and I like his writing alot, alot more than his broadcasting for sure, but I dont know where he is going with this article, I mean its like almost hey remember I was picked to be something important 15 years ago !!! because people with cameras were so hard to come by back then, and that they picked that 2010 version of the kit as the best one I dread to think what the alternatives were like

If you dont like the new kit, fine, but btw suggest how you could have merged the two brands better if you are going to criticise it in a piece like this, and always always remember there are worse kit sponsor options out there, just like this...

Well the point is, Ineos/sky used to really care about all the small details. Now its all 'that'll do' attitude.

Where is the fashion police when you need it?

Such horrible things would never be allowed in Italy. Giro>Tour.

Have you SEEN some of the Italian ProConti kits of the last 25 years?

I don't know what you're talking about, these are all beautiful.

I can't explain how much I disliked those dozen of ugly kits. dear me, the jerseys, helmets, bike paints and so on in these last 30 years ahah. the latest ugly was the green and purple Bardiani of 2-3 years ago

Okay, I am really confused about Peter Øxenberg! More specifically, his contractual situation (apart from having moved officially to Ineos):
It appears Kern-Haus is actually not a devo-team for Ineos in the usual sense; Ineos-management never really seems to have treated K-H as such, I think it was for the Baby Giro they used the phrase "Peter Øxeberg, and the Lotto Kern-Haus boys".
I'm guessing Ineos has their reasons for not just signing him on as a stagiare - It was the agreement from the beginning of the year? They're actually planning on sending him to one of the lesser WT races? - why that weird gap, where his contract with K-H apparently ended on 29/6?
