Transfers and Rumours 2010 > 2011

[Ryo Hazuki]

he said in the belgian press that he had been negotiating with saxobank for about three months (nuyens dropped his name with riis) but that while they kept saying they wanted to sign him, they never actually offered him a contract and that therefore he now decided he couldn't wait any longer for saxobank to make a move and signed with jelly belly - donckers..

the small advantage he has now is that he won't be a helper there but the big gun in every big and small race they start in in Belgium and France and that he may actually win something + his new team has ambition, they've also signed hovelynck (QST), Ricardo VDvelde (garmin) en huub duyn (ex-garmin)...

his team wasn't invited to any major (cobble) races last year so why would they this year with only stronger presentation by big teams like pegasus coming tino the picture

did I say anything about that?

I just said he was going to be the big gun in every race (big and small) they start in in belgium and France..

As for the ambitions of his team, I read that they want to turn procontinental as fast as possible and once they are procontinental you can bet they will be a hard contender for the wildcards in almost every race in Belgium.

If Kevin Hulsmans is your "big gun", you don't deserve pro continental status.

 

[cobblehead]

If Kevin Hulsmans is your "big gun", you don't deserve pro continental status.

I suppose that before turning procontinental they will buy some extra riders

as for hulsmans, has always been a superhelper for Boonen but won both de ronde van vlaanderen en the omloop het volk as an espoir. so who knows? he may win some small races in Belgium now...

Sweed Patrik Morén (ex-Adecco) together with 2 Norwegians Bersvenn Støen and Kristian Engen Forbord to ride for Amore & Vita (

) in 2011.
.

It seems according to an article I read at procycling.no that Amore e Vita will not be norwegian next year after all. Apparently they would have had to sign at least 8 norwegians along with their other roster for them to register in Norway. They are still planning for a norwegian pro continental team in 2012 however but I guess they will still be ukrainian or something else in 2011.

 

[cobblehead]

let me guess, you are belgian right?

what does that has to do with it?

I simply stated that hulsmans is going to ride for jelly belly - donckers coffee next year and that he was going to be their leader.

when asked about this team I only said that they were hoping to go procontinental as soon as possible but that before doing that they would probably buy some new (decent) riders.

in the meantime however hulsmans (a good helper and talented rider with the espoirs cfr winner of the ronde van vlaanderen) will probably be enough to win some small races in belgium (enough kermiskoersen, dernycriteriums and other small races to go around)

anything unclear or biased by the fact that i'm belgian in all of that?
