I'm still waiting for the Vollering transfer. At this point I expect she will just show up next year in a new kit with no announcement

The thing is that Teunissen could've been usefull for other things too. But yeah something must've happened related to Kooij the last few weeks/months. He probably isn't completely happy (which is his own fault, could've gone to Red Bull or DSM) and about to leave.
Other possibility is of course that something else happened with the Teunissen deal and Visma had to actually find a lead out last minute but aren't 100% convinced with McLay so they only gave him a 1y.

UCI would probably need to be told, but I don't think there has to be a public announcement.

Because who doesn't love dried sausages?
(Okay, I know it's vegans and certain religious groups but you know, everybody makes mistakes)
On another note: Robbe D'hondt signed with DSM and I want to make a PSA:
Robbe is pronounced Robb-euh not Robbiiiieee
Now, I know our man Carlton Kirby won't get it right but for the others, please do make an effort. It's the dudes name ffs.

As for Kirby, I'm more worried about him incessantly making puns on D'hont's surname than butchering his first name.
You can hear it already as he crests the top of a cat 4 climb first from the break...
"Look at Dhondt go, he's almost taunting them, haunting them!"

Perhaps she will quit and just go riding with her dogs, or switch sports perhaps running she seems to enjoy it.I'm still waiting for the Vollering transfer. At this point I expect she will just show up next year in a new kit with no announcement
no, he has a 2025 deal with Astana. I am very pleased to see McLay in the world tour

Then why weren't the others welcoming the sausages?
Someone's been busy.
Extensions:
New signings:
Fun fact: Pelle Køster is the Danish U23 RR Champion, and Daniel Weis is the Danish Elite CX Champion. Of course, there's also Søjberg.
Ag2r was not the team I would have expected to start collecting Danish Champions.

Lührs has been so anonymous in the World Tour that he can sign with an U23 team and they‘ll write his name wrong in the announcement

Still insane that teams like Ineos and Red Bull don't or didn't have a devo team for so long and equally as insane that talented juniors like Luhrs actually sign for teams like that and ruin their own career.

He is supposed to year, at least that's what I've been told like 2 months ago, but it is somewhat strange that it still hasn't been announced. Also think it's a weird decision. Ok Total would pay him a lot for what he does probably but there is a - maybe small - that Total doesn't get a Tour invite and that would mean no GT for Cras (same counts for riders like Kron who sign for UNO X now tbf).
Lührs was even riding with the Epstein-Barr-Virus for a long time this season.

McLay is a great signing, I know it sounds a bit odd but his positioning in the last K is brilliant, they probably got him for nothing and for the remainder of Kooij's contract. Not his fault Demare couldn't kick the skin off a custard at the moment.
Tbh the longer it goes on, the possibility for me is increasing that's exactly what she's about to do. Her most recent interview was in a Dutch running magazine wasnt it ?

As mentioned in the junior thread, DSM have signed Matteo Vanhuffel, son of the once universally disliked Wim Van Huffel. After all, it was him who collaborated with Falco Savoldelli, ending our Rujano dreams.
No, that was not a spelling error. Wim is called Van Huffel, Matteo is called Vanhuffel.

Both are called Vanhuffel, when the father first got his pro-racing license it was misspelled and it never changed since.
It's a bit like how in his first pro year everyone thought Pierre Latour was called Pierre-Roger Latour even though Roger is his third/Christian name
