Transfers and Rumours 2012 > 2013

[maltiv]

if they (Saxo) don"t get a WT spot with this team ....

Indeed, they're looking ridiculously strong now, would certainly be the best pro-continental team ever. They could definitely challenge Sky's supertrain in the mountains with Contador, Rogers, Kreuziger, Roche, CAS, Majka etc.

 

[Cimber]

the fixed date for that was october 15. rogers transfer matters no

Not regarding points, but it should matter when they sit down and compare saxo and argos.

Agree,same thoughts.I wonder in which race he will be the leader?

 

[ciranda]

Then Rogers would have left the Chicken flapping in the TT.

No. But he would have lost twenty minutes in the pyrenean stages anyway.

 

[jens_attacks]

respect to riis and tinkov. finally a helluva team for alberto

 

[Cimber]

I reckon he will get his chances in some 1-week stage races

 

[the asian]

Tinkov seems to be a man of his words.

Said that he will build a super team like SKY and completes his roster by signing SkY's road captain

Respect for that!

He wants to dismantle the 2012 train of UK postal by taking one of the base wagons of the Wiggo/Froome train.

Lol thats like the dea arresting a middle man and claiming theyve dealt a setback to drugs - there are thousands waiting to take his place.

Vasili Kiryienka?

Obviously.

Hey Hitch.. They didn't really "arrest" Roger they enlisted him instead. There may be thousands who can replace him on the SKY line, but Saxo still get him, his talent, and his inside knowledge of their opponent. The DEA should try hiring some of the cartel middle men and see if that help us get the thousands who might replace them. (just joking )

I believe UCI knew about the Rogers-transfer before october 15

 

[Fidolix]

I believe UCI knew about the Rogers-transfer before october 15

I doubt that, since he was not part of the team building on Gran Canaria.

 

[The Hitch]

Vasili Kiryienka?

To name one.

Contador isnt even going to face wiggins. The year youd want to have something against the sky train was 2012. Froome aint gonna role that way, not entirely anyway.

 

[jyhjyh]

Maybe that was a part of the tactic from Saxo-Tinkoff playing cat and mouse with Sky.
But only UCI, Rogers and Riis know for sure

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

To name one.

if saxo won't get a wt license, then he will ride the giro

Yeah, and Saxo played cat and mouse with the UCI as well, so now they don't have enough points to be certain of a WT license. Great thinking.

 

[calinmarian]

But Bradley Wiggins really wants the maglia rosa?I remember the 2010 giro when he failed and failed hard.What could be this different in 2013?

I'd like to believe this but I cant.I think Alberto wants Tour so much,Froome atracts him not Wiggo

If they wont get a license then Kreusiger for Giro,but unfortunately they wont get invitation with him

Wiggo did the 2010 Giro as a preparation for the Tour de France

Edit: just read the news that german continental team Raiko Stölting announced that they signed after Luke Roberts a second world tour rider, any ideas or rumors who could be the one ?

 

[Parrulo]

gerdemann i would say. . .

Wiggo failed even greater in the 2010 TDF,blaming the giro for tiring him and his potential in the mountains.
