The British registered Continental team will be looking for a strong performance in the Continental Tour this season, and are hoping for a top 10 results.
Our Sponsor Goals will be tough, particularly the two cobbled races as we have no notable cobbled rider who is capable of fulfilling those performances.
We have the following squad (Although I will not rule out possible free agent signings in the first 10 days of January):
Finally, Nico Mattan has announced that he will retired at the end of the year.
Difficulty: Hard (Extreme as of Season 2009)

Ben Swift had declined to join DFL despite me making 3 different offers - the third was significantly higher than his asking price.

He's having an ''annus horribilis'' in real life, as Astarloa did. We can't prove he's not returning to his best level anymore unless he does the same in 2008.
Good luck SNS, nice you're already enjoying B) |

sounds good, i think i signed every single Brit from the FA pool (including my favourite track rider Christian Lyte)
and a whole lot of others, but i really like signings people so with the vast amount on offer, i kind of went mad with signing them
anyway hope do very well in Australia

Aussie RR Champs
Not a particularly important race for us either - we have no chance of winning!
Pollock tried to get in a break but it was caught before team leader for the race, Bernhard Sulzberger, got into the successful one.
Karl Menzies of HealthNet attacked and somehow managed to bridge across as most of the teams represented in the break were frustrated by SouthAustralia.com. Despite having 2 men in the break, they led the chase.
With 65km to go, McEwen crashed out and with 30km to go Evans, Cooke, Bates and Rogers attacked, joining up with the lead group.
Sulzberger could not hang on and soon ran out of energy. The lead group weakened and weakened and going into the downhill sprint, Evans, Rogers and Bates had got a small gap on Baden Cooke.
Evans is the new Aussie champion!
