What? Like a UAE feeder team, in Colombia?

Nils Politt

Rohan Dennis
Sam Bennett
Carlos Betancur

It was mentioned a while back that he's one of the guys staying with the new ICA-Alpecin (or whatever it'll be called…) team.

I guess this must mean that Blythe is staying as well? Vanendert confirmed that he won't get a new deal, and otherwise the numbers don't add up

 

[RedheadDane]

Uttrup to FDJ.
(I'm too lazy to write the full name of the women's team)

Cecilie Uttrup skifter til franske FDJ

Lucas Hamilton extends his current contract with Mitchelton Scott from 2020 to 2021 - He's highly regarded and will get a chance to ride for GC at a GT in 2020 or 2021 - He may lead the team at the TDU with Impey.

Hamilton is developing well but is a LONG way off riding for GC at a GT yet, especially with both Yates, Nieve, Haig and now Peak at MTS.

This Barcelo roller coaster circus is ridiculous. After Gazprom yesterday, now he's rumoured to sign with a French team will ride the Vuelta and it's not Arkea.

Clara Koppenburg to Bigla

Yes, it's confirmed on PCS as Cofidis. Should be a good match with their schedule, assuming they don't go World Tour. At least it's not Gazprom

 

[postmanhat]

Probably old news, but Sacha Modolo won't be at EF next year according to cyclingfever. Is he too late to take the dwindling number of Italian pro-conti spots? Or could ICA revive his career as they've done with a few riders this year

 

[search]

There were rumours about him (and Brambilla) joing Cycling Academy indeed

Israel Cycling Academy, in arrivo Gianluca Brambilla e Sacha Modolo? - SpazioCiclismo

La Israel Cycling Academy cerca rinforzi di peso dopo la promozione nel WorldTour. Acquisita la lice

cyclingpro.net

Personally I'd like to see him getting another shot somewhere, but to be honest, ICA has enough sprinters already, and although he is a decent classics rider and they have a lack of support for Politt, there are probably better ones at a cheaper price available for that job

Hamilton will ride for GC at a GT in the next two years if he continues his current rate of development. - Of course the team will keep it under wraps like A.yates at the 2016 TDF.

Samitier at Movistar.

Finnaly good sign.

Movistar officially announced this today.

He did ride with Cofidis as a stagiare, so it's not that surprising.
