"Well, Travis. What's your decision?"
"I think it's best if I hang up the bike for the rest of the season.
My leg isn't getting better by riding around on it
and Chloe could use my help around the house."
"I understand, if that's what you think is best for you.
I'll have the team map out your offseason training camps right away."
"Thanks Fernando. I hope to be 110% at the start of next season."
And with that I got up and left his office. I was halfway out the door before...
"Hey, Newton. Let me get one of the interns to print out your season review.
It will give you some motivation during your offseason training."
A few minutes later Alonso reappeared and handed me a stack of papers.

He's gonna become a Pinot if he doesn't improve his descending

I got my offseason training schedule yesterday,
let's just say I'm not looking forward to it.
So, to take my mind of it I decided to make a 2014 season recap.

Happy about that season. Boonen with his share of victories, Sagan World Champion, Don't particularly like the two Chris guys in the Vuelta there but that's all right

Taking a few weeks off did wonders for my leg.
I got my first week of training starting tomorrow
and Chloe's baby bump is getting bigger and bigger.
Which can only mean the 2015 season is right around the corner.

Any predictions? Best team, relegation, or individual results?
Spoiler I had to do most of the transfer myself but tried to keep it realistic as possible.
If a few transfers look weird blame Cyanide.
Although I like the outcome a lot.

Sagan to vinifantini 
Euskatel must get relegated surely!! Ag2r too.
Froome at Saxo, I reckon he won all 3 GTs, oh and every monument...

Ag2R & Lampre will relegate is my guess.
Kelderman slowly developing into a beast, hope he won't stop
Valv & Rodriguez  declining hard

Relegation: Lampre, Garmin, I think.
Sagan for World Domination and Movistar for best team!

Relegation: AG2R, Cannondale
Some nice teams. Astana & Movistar have massive squads for mountain stages.

Garmin and Lotto will get relegated.. Movistar looks really strong for the mountains but lacks in sprint & cobbles..
J.Van den Broeck is F.... up... no helpers.
