Cisco Cycling Team • HQ
After spending 2012, our first season in the ManGame, based in Italy under the name Ferrari-ERG, the whole organization has moved to Kazakhstan for this season. We've moved up to ProContinental Tour, although last seasons' results weren't top class.
We've managed to build up a nice core of young Italian talents, who'll stay with us throughout this year as well, continuing their development. The rest of the team will change a lot, with most of the 2012 squad leaving to create space for new names.
The Kazakhstani market is were we'll be most active, trying to sign up a few riders from our new home nationality. Whilst the goal is to build a team for the future, we'll still go for a couple of riders with the capacity to score points. We would very much like to stay in the ProConti Tour after all. Hopefully the "talents plan" will work out in the end.

I know. The worst part is, I'll probably end up deleting five of them.
Anyway, I like to be on the safe side, to say the least.

Yeah, I know how it's like. I only reserved 2 posts and now I wish I had reserved more
But good luck with your new project. A Kazakh team is way more fun than an Italian one if you ask me. At least in the ManGame, not real life.

I like, and agree with, your last sentence, btw.

Simply Red Bull welcomes Cisco into professional cycling and now down to business.
What is the availability of talented Italian all rounder Santambrogio? That burning a hole in my pocket money is looking for something to spend its money on!

He was very useful during the season, so I intend to renew his contract. I'm always listening to offers though, and it's very possible that he'd leave, as long as there are decent offers. I'll need some transfer money for new signings after all.

Team News #1: Pre-renewals
The contract renewals are coming up soon, so it's about time to announce our plans for the future. I'd like to point out that all riders are available at the right price, although some are obviously more likely to stay than others.
Most likely staying:
| Stefano | Agostini | | Enrico | Battaglin | | Eros | Capecchi | | Moris | Possoni | | Mattia | Pozzo | | Marco | Osella | | Cristiano | Salerno | | Mauro | Santambrogio | | Luca | Sterbini |
A very interesting bid would be required for me to even consider letting go of Agostini, Battaglin or Sterbini. Osella, Possoni and Santambrogio will depend a bit on the demanded wages. Pozzo will be definitely be renewed, but I'll be looking for a PT team to help me max him out during the season.
Will be renewed, but up for transfer:
| Gianpaolo | Caruso | | Tiziano | Dall'Antonia | | Edoardo | Girardi | | Przemyslaw | Niemiec | | Stefano | Pirazzi |
Apart from maybe Dall'Antonia, I have no intention of keeping any of these in the team during the 2013 season. I'll try to renew them though, and then look for transfer interest. Highest bid will be accepted, regardless of what sort of money we're talking about.
Wont be renewed:
| Crescenzo | D'Amore | | Giuseppe | Fonzi | | Paolo | Longo Borghini | | Massimiliano | Maisto | | Marco | Marcato | | Daniele | Pietropolli | | Emanuele | Rizza | | Attilio | Scodeller | | Pier Graziano | Sgrigna | | Marco | Zanotti |
These are all leaving. Some because of inability to even try to score points *cough* D'Amore *cough*, some simply because they don't fit into the squad. Nevertheless, we thank all of them for their time with the team.

Team Puma - SAP considers loaning in Mattia Pozzo for some time now, and it is relieved to see that his manager would let him ride in the Pro Tour this season.
We hope that both teams will be able to elaborate a win-win deal concerning Pozzo.

I'd be more than happy to loan him out to Puma.

We are delighted and will work out some fair deals until transfer season.
Thanks for the quick and positive feedback!

Team News #2: Back on Twitter!
The team did already last year hang out on Twitter, but the interest faded a bit after the first few months of the ManGame season. We're now back, with a new name and a new account, ready to stay updated throughout the season.

Meiji are interested in Caruso, Dall'Antonia and Pirazzi, if the right price is negotiated. Since they are both on the "For sale" list, we hope to maybe work out a deal for real once the transfer season begins.
