No Canadian spoils, have the Goldcorp HQ sorta disappointed, albeit a very expected outcome.
Good job with renewals, praying we dont clash in the Free Agency, because I can for sure not match your economic prowess

I remember how much I wanted Kreuziger last year looking at your renewals - once again thank you for developing Polanc in his final year!

@croatia14 not a problem Polanc was a pleasure, for his wage krueziger is hard to let go of as he consistently scores well but I want to go more North American this year so he's available
@atlantius look forward to it
@booker thank you deksel does a great job
@jandal thanks it went well we took our time with the renewals over half took more then one round so happy we got good value on most riders
@whitejersey well I'm not sure who we will target yet but having another Canadian team on board is fantastic look forward to making deals in the future
@hoyle look forward to hearing from you in the window |

You're not the only one who may have interest in signing him

The time has come for the team to say goodbye to an original RBC rider after 4 years of hard graft through then PCT and the PT Ryan Anderson has left the team to join the new Canadian Project Goldcorp Nordstrom Rack.
Ryan's biggest moment in a RBC jersey is his Stage 6 Tour of Austria win in 2014
Ryan will be missed and we wish him all the best in his new adventure

I am beyond pleased with getting Ryan in. He is going to be a super useful guy in the hills and should score well while helping the captain that we hope to close in the coming hours! I would like to thank RBC and jt for giving us the opportunity to take him on board!

Nice looking stats for a CT rider for sure... Could give some decent points, and be a very strong domestique if you end up landing a top level puncheur.

| Danny Summerhill Wage:740k |

Our Leader in the Cobbled classics this season and our Number 1 target in this off-season the signing of Danny to pair with Taylor should guarantee our survival for the year and we are very happy to have him with us and to finally get a presence in the classics
| Robin Carpenter Wage:90k |
| FL | MO | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | | 66 | 72 | 72 | 68 | 71 | 69 | 70 | 52 | 66 | 68 | 68 | 68 | 68 |
A talent for the future Robin is here to develop and we look forward to him becoming a useful member in team Phinney in the future to go with other North American riders such as Nathan Brown and Soon to be announced signing Joey Rosskopf

Fantastic NA focus to the set-up for 2017 season jt; sponsors must be stoked. Danny didn't miss too many of the main races due to wildcards, but sure Sumerhill glad to have a clear cut calendar for the new year to work around. The classics battles with the Beast, GVA et al. should be awesome.

@Scorchio Thanks keeping the NA focus does limit you to the amount of riders you can pick up but it really interests me with the role playing side of the game, Danny is probably the 3rd best cobbled rider at the moment so a Monument podium is the goal and a top 5 in the other one while trying to dethrone King Bewley |

I'm very surprised to see you landing Summerhill for that wage from the FA market. Imo one of the biggest bargains in this offseason.
