Russ Downing signs for CULT Energy Pro Cycling (Pro-Conti)
1 year contract

Link

He of course had a very messed up year with NFTO due to his collarbone break.
Still did great at the Commonwealth games, so glad he has found a ride next year.

Even Horner said they dont have budget for next year ... Lampre is definitely getting out or at least lowering their sponsorship.

Phil Bauhaus (Stölting), Emanuel Buchmann (rad-net) and Patrick Konrad (Gourmetfein Wels) all sign two-year contracts with Bora. They are really building a nice little team. :)

Nice little team? Maybe little but not exactly nice. At least I would call that team "nice" by signing every available conti-grade German rider.

If Kreuziger's case gets decided quickly there could be another spot.

I fail to see anyone available that can replace Kreuziger. They will do anything they can to keep him. Kiserlovski is good Roche replacement, but Kreuziger is a level above.

Have you ever heard of the word "talent"? Have you checked the results of these kids?

And their nationality. Konrad is Austrian, not German.

Leclerq was speculating that also during the Vuelta, because of Cunego's departure as he has strong links with the Lampre family!

Cunego simply sucks and gets weaker every year. It's high time that they let him go. And it's the Galbusera family.

Talent? Talent doest not guarantee any results. Hard work and strong work ethics is what makes you a world class athlete. There has been so many talented athletes with no results. Just look at the TOP 10 results from junior and U23 World Championships from last 10 years and you will only find very few familiar names in current pro peloton.

So he is an Austrian huh? Phew, same thing, Austria is just another word for East Germany and the sponsor is most likely looking at Austrian market as German market anyway.

If you think like that how can young riders ever get in WT teams? Bauhaus has won against pros in Portugal, Konrad did great against pros in his home country, which isn't called Germany. I don't think they can easily find better riders with their budget than the ones they've bought now. They're procontinental, not WT.

Just look at the top10 from World Championships and notice that a lot of the riders in the current peloton have been in these top 10s in the past.
