WC ITT posted
Spoiler Kinnd of weird results, but I think the weather played a role here, as most of the overperformances from riders such as Coppel, Hamelink, Dowsett, Fominykh came around the same time. Dumoulin at the end was the only one of the favorites to beat those times, so a deserved winner. |

That's just typical, just as I'm about to throw Dowsett out of the team he delivers a great result. Only 2 seconds behind the podium. Majka also excellent. But yeah, weather played a major role.

Van Poppel working for Kelderman's sprint train and Van Keirsbulck finishing pretty much last is the perfect conclusion for my season!
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Yates sprint secures him another win, wow. Too bad that Nibali lost his, would have been an amazing Valverde-like win before the decline hits. Bananito closely missing the medal sucks a bit, but Liberty riders never contributes to the race. |

Britain would have done much better had they raced for Geraint Thomas. Ok, maybe not much better... Congrats, Abhishek and Yates, keep rubbing it in that I should really have hired him.

Delighted to see Bardet's strong ride in the WCRR is rewarded with a medal.
Congrats to Abhi and thanks to Bikex for a great video.

No NC won, so far, so good. I hope I don't have to create a NC jersey.

Hoping I can follow the game more closely this year!
Good to have you back. Unfortunately that means no Demare for me this year. You should check out the results of the TDF in case you are wondering about Yates' upcoming wage demands.

Getting quite a few jerseys this year, but I forgot who makes them.

Dumoulin! I think that might be my first WC in the ICL. A few winners in the NCs too with Gonçalves and Boswell
TTT was obviously disappointing to fade away so badly in the last sector and if it wasn't for the WCITT I would have been really disappointed with the 2-3-4 finish in the Dutch TT.
Overall, I'm pretty happy with some of my team's results this season. We only finished low-mid table but it was great to see Shafeeq get his first WT stage. Boswell getting an NC victory and 2nd in Bucaramanga shows that he's still been improving.
Low points? Aside from not winning a race all year... next would have to be Intxausti retiring while in the top 10 of his final Tour, but at least Bovenhuis stepped up in his absence. Gesink's best years must be behind him now, but I don't have an excuse for Moreira's lack of results.
I'll try to get a month-by-month retrospective update going in the teams thread, which should reveal a bit more about the team's future outlook.
