 Halo dan selamat datang to the team HQ of Indosat - ANZ! 
We're back for another year! After finishing in 5th place in the CT division last year, we've been promoted and will be competing in the PCT division this season.
We're an Indonesian based and Australian backed team from a little corner of the world called South East Asia. We're looking to continue the development of the sport of cycling within the region after a super successful first season - It included successes such as the Tour of East Java breaking national broadcasting records and regional cycling races reporting all-time high numbers of participants.
We are expanding our focus to an international level, opting to be competitive in more prestigious races abroad as opposed to targeting races relative to our region. Our sponsors are on board with this idea, and hope we can achieve success. We will also be looking to recruit more riders from SE Asia going into the next season and aspire to maintain a good balance within our team; with both our core and our leaders.
We hope to achieve a respectable overall place in our first year as part of the PCT division, and are fully motivated to undertake any means necessary to do so (Well, maybe with the exception of signing Roy  ).
Our team's 2016 jersey (and NC's) have been masterfully crafted by Krisa. We would like to thank him once again for his work!
Indonesian NC (Parno & Manulang):
UAE NC (Banihammad):
Spanish NC (Intxausti):

Well I'm not in charge so don't mind me. 
I've seen others as well so I'm sure it's no problem.

With the unfortunate disbandment of Pro Tour team Quickstep, the team can announce that their transfer goals will also have to change as a result of a number of target riders now forced into the Free Agency. After many hours of research, a new shortlist has been compiled which features a high profile Dutch rider as well as a Colombian climber heading the list.
More to be announced soon.

After a relatively stressful build up to contract renewals, things seem to have worked out quite well for the team. Atapuma decided to take a nice pay cut (not quite as much as we'd hoped) as well as a few others that were recruited from the free agency last season on inflated wages. After an outstanding season, Kruopis was looking to up his wage fairly considerably. Thankfully, we talked him down to just over 100k. Nieve, now receding, also agreed to a cut much to our joy.
I can't say for certain really if anyone will 100% be available as i'm fairly happy with the core team i've got, but alas:

Only when Nizzolo wins a Giro stage / Everyone else
To sum it up, any rider is available for the right price. However, it depends what the 'right price' is. The above 'scale' should show which riders I most value, no?

Without further ado, we present our goals for the coming season.
| Tour of East Java | Top 5 | | Giro del Trentino | Top 5 | | / | Tour of Andorra/Corsica International | Win | | Volta a Catalunya | Top 3 | | | - | PCT Standings | Top 15 |
Tour of East Java - Top 5
Probably one of our more risky goals; it's essentially a mountain classic. We went with a win goal here last year and managed to pull off 3rd - a good result, but not good enough to satisfy our goal criteria. With the race being classified as a stage race (with only two stages), it takes up minimal race days and so we should expect a very strong field here. Our current team lineup (luck permitting) won't be able achieve this goal as is. We're definitely going to be hunting a GC leader during the upcoming transfers.
Giro del Trentino - Top 5
Another race we raced last year, where we also finished 3rd overall. We'll be looking for a similar result this season and hope the field might be slightly diminished due to the race running parallel to a GT this season. We'll need to pick up another couple of riders during transfers to be competitive here, however.
/ Tour of Andorra/Corsica International - Win
We chose this as a split goal because the team weren't sure on what kind of leader we were after. A pure mountain goat with excellent recovery, or a well rounded stage racer? We think we've got a better idea now then we did when we compiled these goals. Regardless, they're both tough stage races that will attract high quality fields and we'll need to be on our game to achieve our win goal. We're cautiously optimistic, however we won't be terribly disappointed if our dreams don't come to fruition.
Volta a Catalnuya - Top 3
Another difficult race, and by now it should be obvious what type of rider we'll be targeting during transfers (See: not Abal). Another C1 race, but it will (hopefully) most definitely suit our team. A podium is very ambitious, but not out of reach.
We have kind of mixed feelings on this. If we were to recruit our ideal team, it should definitely be possible (barring strange results). If things don't quite work out during transfers, we could be in trouble. I think we can avoid relegation, but where we finish I'm not sure.

Sauber --> Indosat
Dadi Suryadi
| Dadi Suryadi | Wage: $50k | Age: 27 |
| Flat | Mtn | Hill | TT | Sta | Res | Rec | Cob | Spr | Acc | Ftr | Dh | Prl | | | 68 | 74 | 72 | 63 | 73 | 72 | 72 | 53 | 61 | 73 | 72 | 64 | 61 |
It is with great pleasure that we welcome one of Indonesia's best cyclists Dadi Suryadi to the team. Suryadi's a fantastic climber and will hopefully assist in delivering us some great results during the coming season. He's a strong rider that was with former team Sauber Petronas for a while before their manager enquired whether we'd be interested in a possible transfer. The answer was obviously a resounding yes!
Jimmy Pranata Sauber --> Indosat
| Jimmy Pranata | Wage: $50k | Age: 26 |
| Flat | Mtn | Hill | TT | Sta | Res | Rec | Cob | Spr | Acc | Ftr | Dh | Prl | | | 71 | 63 | 73 | 62 | 70 | 71 | 73 | 62 | 66 | 65 | 74 | 61 | 62 |
Another terrific Indonesian rider that we're more than to sign! Pranata also previously rode for Sauber Petronas and was a handy rider for them during his time there. A local favourite, we predict to see his face on multiple billboards around Java within a week! It'll be quite a homecoming for the handy puncheur who'll spend the majority of his time as a domestique for our leaders.
