Seeing Montenegro potentially on the move is rather surprising, after all he did for you last year (which is also reflected in his wage I guess) 
Would be great to see you reach promotion this year - otherwise you should have great chances next season when your cool talents are maxed Speaking of, if you decide to loan out Huera, I might be interested

SEE Turtles 2026 Roster(?)

There is certainly much possibility for our roster to change with more than a few days left in the transfer season - and a likelihood of at least one loan-in rider heading our way (we hope). Let's go through a run down of some of the folks joining us. If you're interested in us changing this roster, it will take wage reductions on our end, so make deals possible if you send them our ways please <3
| Nat. | Name | FL | MO | MM | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | OVR | XP | Age | Wage |  | Dylan Kennett | 75 | 58 | 62 | 65 | 69 | 73 | 76 | 78 | 62 | 79 | 78 | 67 | 68 | 78 | 75.97 | 4.100 | 32 | 170000 |
The kingpin signing of this year, joining us in exchange for Magnus Sheffield - our premier talent. Kennett can challenge for a top 5 spot in the CT rankings we feel and are excited to give him a strong leadout throughout the season. He also joins our absolutely absurd prologue core.
| Nat. | Name | FL | MO | MM | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | OVR | XP | Age | Wage |  | Bachirou Nikiema | 69 | 70 | 74 | 77 | 62 | 72 | 74 | 72 | 65 | 70 | 76 | 74 | 71 | 63 | 75.35 | 4.100 | 29 | 110000 |
Bachirou Nikiema takes over basically exactly where Santiago Montenegro was, but on a slightly lesser wage and with slightly better sprint capabilities. A rider we've looked at favorably over the past few seasons, we think that he can help us bring a few stage results through and be a great 1-2 punch with our next signing...
| Nat. | Name | FL | MO | MM | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | OVR | XP | Age | Wage |  | Jay McCarthy | 68 | 65 | 73 | 80 | 56 | 77 | 72 | 65 | 67 | 63 | 71 | 69 | 69 | 56 | 74.79 | 4.100 | 34 | 100000 |
McCarthy is obviously a MG legend with a very strong skillset still. He should be able to make up for some of the struggles that Montenegro had last year (yes, our top rider had some clear issues in our opinion) and with Nikiema together they can avoid those we believe. Hopefully he can give us the push into PCT that we've been looking for.
| Nat. | Name | FL | MO | MM | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | OVR | XP | Age | Wage |  | Alejandro Osorio | 69 | 77 | 75 | 72 | 72 | 73 | 72 | 74 | 55 | 56 | 68 | 62 | 64 | 68 | 74.68 | 4.100 | 28 | 85000 |
Osorio takes the main climbing leader role over from Rachid, who served us well last year. Osorio has a few more years of prime and better capabilities on the hills, where Rachid was often losing a bit of time. Helping build a stronger South American core is also an attractive benefit of his arrival. He should be able to target specific races without needing to be a world-beater.
| Nat. | Name | FL | MO | MM | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | OVR | XP | Age | Wage |  | Jhonatan Restrepo | 70 | 68 | 72 | 75 | 72 | 71 | 69 | 74 | 55 | 70 | 72 | 65 | 68 | 72 | 73.67 | 4.100 | 32 | 65000 |
Restrepo was nowhere near our radar heading into transfers, but a fortunate series of events mean that he joins us as the main hilly domestique to our two leaders. He can provide TTT support, leadout options, and overall be a great support for every single leader our team has. Expect him to score a few times on his own and be ready to give his last year a strong run.
| Nat. | Name | FL | MO | MM | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | OVR | XP | Age | Wage |  | Jake Marryatt | 71 | 61 | 65 | 68 | 77 | 67 | 74 | 67 | 57 | 60 | 58 | 67 | 63 | 77 | 73.39 | 4.100 | 30 | 55000 |
It wouldn't be a SEE Turtles transfer season without a TT guy joining the team and Marryatt is a loyal part of the TTT set-up for the upcoming year. On low wage and with many race days, he should be able to make an impact. He should score a few points in ITT's throughout the year as well, where we hope one of our many options will have a good day.
| Nat. | Name | FL | MO | MM | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | OVR | XP | Age | Wage |  | Damien Howson | 68 | 56 | 59 | 62 | 77 | 68 | 69 | 67 | 55 | 61 | 63 | 69 | 60 | 77 | 72.42 | 4.100 | 34 | 50000 |
Howson is a bit past his prime, but he's certainly a valuable asset. Just like Marryatt, at minimum wage, he's going to be a workhorse for us. This is his opportunity to teach some younger TT riders and build upon his legacy. Expect him to show up as a road captain when we need an extra rider as well.
| Nat. | Name | FL | MO | MM | HI | TT | ST | RS | RC | CB | SP | AC | FG | DH | PR | OVR | XP | Age | Wage |  | Freddy Alejandro Avila | 71 | 60 | 61 | 62 | 71 | 70 | 71 | 66 | 63 | 61 | 62 | 64 | 67 | 70 | 68.36 | 2.41 | 23 | 50000 |
Another surprise arrival in our Montenegro deal, Avila arrives as the future of SEE Turtles time trialing. He'll be able to learn from many riders this year in his aim to lead the team in future years. We are very excited about his potential in our colors and should be an inspiration to other South American riders to consider attempting the time trial bike in addition to the climbs.

Not sure anyone achieved that kind of focus in prologues before. Really nice South American core to the team and the TTT team is very solid. Kennett's a beast although sad to see Sheffield slip away to the Canadians.

Kennett was also on my sprinter shortlist, but I hope he will do worse than Welten.
I hope that Restrepo and Avila will turn out well for you.
All in all some good signings

As long as you don't choose cobbled races by accident you have a really good core. No world beaters obviously, but good top 10 contenders for all (other) terrains. I really up it's promotion for you this season!

Very astute signings and I'd put you definitely into the Top 5 of the CT on first glance across teams. Points should come in every terrain except the one that shall not be named

Full Career Statistics updated on page 1 - Happy to see 3 of our top 5 performing riders of all time still on the team ... for now!

This is all we could ever want! We have always had a good loaning relationship and am glad that we can represent the team history even without official representation this season.
Very astute signings and I'd put you definitely into the Top 5 of the CT on first glance across teams. Points should come in every terrain except the one that shall not be named
The terrain that shall not be named??? And to think that we've voluntarily signed up for at least 1 additional race on that terrain. Maybe there's something else cooking in Turtleville Spoiler It is NOT Turtle soup
As long as you don't choose cobbled races by accident you have a really good core. No world beaters obviously, but good top 10 contenders for all (other) terrains. I really up it's promotion for you this season!
We've never been great about finding a #1 pure leader to run our team, but try to make sure that we aren't taking goose eggs regularly. I think we've done better this year finding a bit stronger caliber of leader after attempting that last year. One step at a time in that regard. Hopeful for promotion too!

Some big names there, crazy puncheur duo for CT (or even PCT). I'm very glad Osorio found a home where he will be loved, and look forward very hard to see what he can accomplish as a leader in CT

Hopefully McCarthy and Nikiema can work well together. I guess you got them both fairly cheaply so it makes more sense to take that risk. Good leaders and good depth means you should be in promotion contention

After a premature roster posting with more than a week to go in transfers, we were unable to touch grass and continued to evolve our team. Hearing some feedback, we attempted to strengthen things just a tad throughout.
Some notes about the 2nd half of transfers:
- We end up with only one true sprinter in Kennett after selling Tivani to our friends at IncaLine helped us evolve a bit. We will likely miss opportunities on some sprint stages, but it is a risk worth taking.
- Watson joins as a 3rd piece in the trident in what is already a very deep hill competition in CT. Hopefully he is able to make sure we have multiple riders in the front throughout the hilly races, and works as the primary domestique when Nikiema and McCarthy can't work together due to RD constraints
- Osorio decided that he didn't like how far ahead some of his competition in the mountains looked and worked very hard to develop this offseason. He intends to show SEE Turtles management that allowing Rachid to go is worth it with his new found climbing strength. He'll also appear in some *random* HI/MM classics in case they end up favoring the climbers.
- Gonzalez Salas joins us as the first ever European to ride for our squad. He will attempt to get some individual TT results alongside leading the TTT. His ability to connect with our Spanish speaking South American youngsters is a great plus.
- Good luck to all against our TTT, especially in the C2 races 
- Our only regret this transfer season (besides not convincing Bikex to sell me a certain prologue specialist) is that most of our sales head to other CT squads. While we look forward to seeing our former riders succeed, we hope they do not overtake our own signings.

Surely this must be your year. I very briefly considered getting some more TT pawns on board but there's no use really with a powerhouse like the Turtles in the division. Good luck buddy

Looking very well rounded this season! Osiris training looks good, he should score well in the mountains for you. Obviously the TTT squad will bring in many points, and I’m curious to see whether you plan McCarthy and Nikiema together or keep them seperate too

Maybe I'm tripping, but I think McCarthy is gonna be a steal in CT. Only question is how he's planned with Nikiema.
