Unless Ineos gets Remco, they should start already now poaching for Uijtdebroeks for 2025. Same for JV if they don't keep Remco after the merger.

Didn't know he was angry because Aleks attacked on the run-in to La Cruz de Linares. Thought it was about another stage. Then, imho, he is not right and looks kind of selfish in his own way.
That move did not jeopardize or compromise his position, yet could be positive for the team if they had let Vlasov take a two minute gap for free. Also Aleks worked for him when he was caught.

14 million euro investment for 2 years in someone who will be 36 at the end of his contract. That's something, to say the least.
Looking at how Ineos "developed" Sivakov I would politely decline their contact offer if I was Uijtdebroeks!
I don't think that will be the case. Uijtdebroeks will get shared leadership at the Giro with one of Hindley/Vlasov/Martinez, and the first week will decide who is the leader. Uijtdebroeks wasn't planned to ride the TDF, so I don't see them change these plans just to be a domestique for Roglic. If everything goes according to plan, Uijtdebroeks will take over from Roglic when his contract ends in 2 years. Great opportunity for Roglic to become a mentor of Uijtdebroeks.
Landa on some random twitch stream saying he has no idea what's going on, same with Evenepoel if he is to be believed.
French twitter currently shilling Uijtdebroeks to FDJ as apparently he is unhappy.
Silly season started early this time around.

they now have two recent GT winners in their team. Neither Vlasov nor Cian will lead a GT next year.
Based on how Hindley rode his last GT I don't know why he should claim leadership over Uijtdebroeks or Vlasov. Hindley was only 7th in the Tour, and part of it was due to letting him get away in an early attack.
He only started losing places after his crash. He'd have finished much higher.
So you think a guy who has won one GT (not 5 years ago but last season) and came very close another time should not get leadership over guys who never even came close to a GT podium?
Roglic leads TDF and Hindley leads il Giro while going to the Tour as superdomestique. They other guys get planned around that. Not too hard to do.
just rumors. I pray for him not to join the French. FDJ is good for the French. also Cian knows Roglic's coach. Bora has no hurry, they can plan with a long view. stay the fck there Cian!
FDJ did not train Pinot in descending. They did send him to MTB descender Oscar Saiz, who has been working for a while as a freelance descending instructor for MTB and road riders.
Meet Oscar Saiz, the mountain biker teaching WorldTour pros how to descend
Oscar Saiz is a pocket-rocket Spaniard who you’ve probably never heard of but has had an oversize impact on the road peloton. The 49-year-old, who lives 40km outside Barcelona, made his name in downhill mountain biking, racing for Giant’s mountain-bike team. He was rarely out of the World Cup...

Enric Mas also worked with Saiz last year between the Tour and the Vuelta.
I saw an inteview with Saiz last month during the Vuelta. He said he will be working next year in a close relation with a WT team. That will probably reduce the amount of freelance work he can take if he's not full time with whatever team he works for.
I'm saying that Uijtdebroeks will get co-leadership. This Vuelta was way harder than the Giro where Hindley came 2nd or that he won. Uijtdebroeks is the future, still young, and progressed by the time the next GT starts. Based on how he rode, I don't think Hindley will be able to follow him on long climbs. So if Uijtdebroeks can work on explosive climbs and his TT, he'll finish before Hindley.

Cian & Little Lenny M? Sounds good! Gaudu? Forget it, he's yesterday's news. Send him to Ineos or Israel!

Roglic rumoured to be going to Bora. You heard it here first.
Gosh. Zero clue why I wrote compatriot instead of companion!
Embarrassing.
Remco to ineos, cian to jumbo, to improve in the shadow of Vingegaard.https://cyclinguptodate.com/cycling...n-doubt-following-clash-with-aleksandr-vlasov

Yeah that should be the plan. Then there's still a co-leader spot at the Giro open for Cian or Vlasov and one of them could also do the Vuelta as main target.
If Cian is upset about the Vuelta then it won't work with Bora either way and he will be gone...in my eyes no reason to be upset. They were only competing for minor places and the only two times Vlasov attacked were not really situations where someone else could have profited from it. I think Cian never had to be a domestique in any race for Bora last season (he was in the Sibiu Tour for Aleotii in 22). That's thanks to his high level but also Bora let's riders just do there thing in most races. I think Cian also is a beneficiary of this policy although of course this means he also doesn't get full support until he's fighting for the GC win.

Carlton Kirby does it all the time: teammate=compatriot, breakaway companion=compatriot, anyone they might heve some connection with = compatriot.
BREAKING NEWS.
No merger at all. Evenepoel stays where he is now. Soudal-Quickstep. Fantastic news for cycling.

If that ends being true, the real losers are all the teams that left spots open to pick up the best of the leftovers.
it was rumored in the summer. but nothing was heard after. Felt belongs to the KTM group, could be that too? (Human Powered Health men folds and Felt has no men team anymore)

Genuine question. Do you work at that website?
You keep promoting it here by pasting 10 of their links here every day while they are just a random site that steals content of others.
