[StryderHells]

I suspect Brodie Gilmore.

It’s Brady not Brodie.
He’s certainly been performing and it wouldn’t surprise me to see him getting a call up

Antonia Niedermaier extended her contract at Canyon until 2028.

Seems like a decnt signing for one day hilly races. replacement for Berhe/Hellmose.

 

[Roku]

I don't think he replaces any of them. Both of them are climbers, Covi is more of a "passista veloce", good in shorter hills and mid mountain races with a nice sprint.

His profile is comparable to De Pretto and Engelhart, so either an improvement compared to the German or a direct replacement for his fellow countryman.

Or his retiring countryman in De Marchi.

Pretty happy with his signing. Helps round out or classics team well.

Given that there hasn't been a team with GreenEdge in its name since 2015, will Covi be racing as a junior?
I have probably mentioned before, I have the twitter habit of putting tags rather than names, esp where the tag is not immediately obvious. Defeats the purpose of communication.

Yes, I am a boomer.

nice for Antonia, she comes from the Canyon/Sram Generation team of 2022, started after they signed Dygert in the WT team and the backlash. thanks Chloe

Rumors AG2R will stop it's cycling sponsoring after more than 20 years...

But don't worry Decathlon fans, it will apparently be replaced with another very big French company. Budget of the team will increase once again.

Another Mulliez-family company?

Time for a trip down the AG2R memory lane then:

Every grand tour stage victory for Decathlon AG2R

Can you name the riders of Decathlon AG2R and the predecessors that won a stage in a Grand Tour ?

I have no idea.

A different thread said it’s L’Oreal. The goal must be to make Seixas a TDF champion

They'll all have amazing skin!

 

[Rechtschreibfehler]

They'll all have amazing skin!

Will that affect air resistance?

Smoother skin = more aero!

 

[Berniece]

They'll all have amazing skin!

And hair

 

[Wyndbrook]

Short sleeve tt suits like Remco from now on then.

Question for the mods.
If a bald rider changed to Alpecin, and suddenly grew long, lustrous locks, would we be allowed to discuss those matters here... or would that have to take place down in the clinic?

Foldager and Juul-Jensen rumoured to have extended with Jayco.
Reedtz tried to trick Juul-Jensen into confirming whether that's true (like he'd in 'AftenTour' a few years ago), he didn't fall for it.

Valoti e la MBH Bank: l'arrivo di Felline e un pensiero su Verre

La MBH Bank 2026 potrebbe avere in Fabio Felline una guida per i più giovani. Spiega tutto Gianluca Valoti, parlando anche di altri suoi ex

bici.pro

Felline un-retires himself and signs for MBH Bank Ballan. There has been talk the past year or two of them moving up to Pro level. Maybe this is a sign that it's finally going to happen.

The article also talks about Masnada and Verre in passing (two other ex-Colpack riders). No direct mention of transfers for them, but the team has "contacts with some riders, but we are waiting to see what the WorldTours do and then we will start to make our own steps".

Benson has Updates to Red Bull. Has anyone the News ?
