Hi there, and welcome in the HQ of Team TomTom.(Former Team Jesleyh)
We're a new and ambitious cycling team in the Continental Division, mainly focussed on the BeNeLux.
Here's some more about the sponsors:
Main sponsor: TomTom
TomTom is a Dutch manufacturer of navigation systems. They have an international reputation and are definitely wealthy enough to be the main sponsor of a cycling team. In fact, they are even the leading manufacturer of navigation systems in whole Europe.
They of course want us to focus on the BeNeLux market, but they are interested in whole Europe as well.
The fact that there was no Dutch Continental Team yet this year, made TomTom even more interested in sponsoring a team, given that they have a monopoly on Dutch publicity in most continental races.
Minor sponsor 1: KPN
KPN is a Dutch telecommunication company. Their reputation is somewhat smaller, but they have international business in Belgium, Spain, Germany & France as well. In most of those countries, they work under an other name.
Minor sponsor 2: Het Nieuwsblad
Het Nieuwsblad is a Belgian newspaper. While the newspaper itself only has interest in Belgium, it has a widely known name in the world of cycling. This is of course because a big cobbled race, Omloop het Nieuwsblad, is named after them. Het Nieuwsblad is mainly after showing the jersey in Belgian races.
Minor sponsor 3: Randstad
Not bringing in a lot of money, these guys will not get a big part of our shirt. But it's nice to have them on our team. Randstad is a human resource consulting firm, operating on all the continents. They are mainly interested in the BeNeLux in this case.
Clothing sponsor: Gruppetto Azzuri
A nice company that only started recently. It's completely under control of just 2 people: Jakstar22 & Krisa, and they were interested in sponsoring our jerseys.
Team Name:
Our team will be called Team TomTom. This sounds like a normal name, but it has a nice side-effect. Our team abbreviation will be TTT. And TTTs will probably be one of our better disciplines, given that we have Mouris in the team.
The Jersey:
As you can see, the main colour is red, which is what TomTom wanted from us. There's a recognisable green colour in the jersey as well, to make us stand out in the peloton.
We hope you like it as much as we do!

It's similar to Leopard with a single money man behind rather than an actual company I suppose.
Good luck to you. No shocks in team focus either, so hopefully my remaining targets should be safe from the new team on the block

Keep the name and just have the team as a representation of your own ego.
Good luck with this |

Jesleyh? That sounds like it would be my crack dealer, not my bike sponsor.
Good luck! Glad you decided to join after all!

Quite a surprise, but here's a warm welcome from Armenia.
Oh, and glad we won't clash with the transfers

You should just change the name to Jesley-H. It would sound like a very fancy new fashion company

Don't worry guys, I know the name is horrible, but it will change after the sponsor presentation.
I'll keep it during the transfer season, though.

The way it looks now, we have 3 deals secured:
Potential team leader Michel Elijzen(Transfer), good cobbler Cedric Lebris(Transfer) and hills domestique Bob Schoonbroodt(Loan).
No need for a party yet, it could still collapse.
We are desperate for a puncher though. We hope to loan a quality one.

Managing two teams at once. Get ready for some shady stuff

Big thanks to jdog for making this AMAZING userbar!
