Any news about Carlos Galviz and Yonathan Monsalve? They don't seem to have a contract for 2016 and both are pretty decent riders that could do well on any proconti team.
The Cycling News forum is looking to add some volunteer moderators with Red Rick's recent retirement. If you're interested in helping keep our discussions on track, send a direct message to

I think this might be the only breakaway that he got in, he was a legend though.

Unbelievable that no team picked this guy up to strengthen their classics squad.

It is crazy. I thought Lotto Soudal would be an obvious landing spot to further strengthen their challenge to Etixx.
pastronef said:it´s not a transfer. it´s a contract renewal
Seb Henao adds 1 year and stays at SKY until 2017

If I was going to cheat to win bike races, Emanuele Sella's 2008 Giro would be how I would want to do it. Hilarity all around, no half measures, just ludicrously obvious mountain exploits.
And he's the only man to win a Passo Fedaia MTF
That 2008 Giro was a total blast - I doubt Benny Hill could have staged a funnier bike racestaubsauger said:Libertine Seguros said:Ciao LelleTourOfSardinia said:Emanuele Sella tooJRanton said:Jose Serpa (at Lampre last year) is another rider to retire.

Riccardo Ricco would probably disagree, but Sella actually made those Giro mountain stages a one-man show. Great entertainment / 90's cover act.^^
Too bad, he missed out at Kronplatz against Pellizotti.
To be fair, he ain't been no worse cyclist beforehand already and was at least decent again in the first years after his ban.
Still always gonna be remembered as a one hit wonder, though. But as a great one. Those iconic black and white pictures when he stormed up Reiterjoch <3. That was actually when I fell (back) in love with cycling .... and this time forever!
Thank you Lelle & goodbye!
Good news. He seems like a good talent.Zinoviev Letter said:Emanuel Buchmann, the German RR champion, has extended with Bora. The team still had him for another year on a (cheap) neopro contract, but instead they've agreed a three year extension. A pretty big vote of confidence.
Rollin only agreed to one year AFAIKfilipo said:Dominique Rollin retires again. Does anyone know the backstory here? I thought he came to Cofidis for 2015 at the specific request of Bouhanni, but it now seems like Bouhanni wants him gone.
Minor transfer story, I know, but -- anyone?

I thought he'd join One Pro who have a much better calendar than NFTO but it seems they weren't interested. He did pick up some decent results last year at An Post, certainly enough to land a Pro Conti contract.
