How hard is it to copy the spelling of the team name from either your banner or sig?
IS is the flag code for Iceland.

Our Horrible transfer season is over, despite the bad luck of being inactive for the first week, we have got through with a team capable of a reasonable CT placing.
Young Riders
Kristjan Palmarsson
Nationatiliy: Iceland
Age: 19
Rider Type: Roleur
Previous Team: Free Agent
Info: Kristjan Palmarsson is a very strong young Icelandic rider who will be using this season to gain experience as a roleur, he will ride in support of sprinters and will be given a few chances in breakaways over the season. We expect him to develop as a very talented roleur over time.
Pieter De Vries
Nationality: Netherlands
Age: 19
Rider Type: Roleur/Fighter
Previous Team: Free Agent
Info: Just like Kristjan, Pieter will ride the 2014 season to gain experience for future seasons, he will ride most the season in support of sprinters and will have a few chances in breakaways over the season.
Nicky Van Drenthe
Nationality: Netherlands
Age: 22
Rider Type: Northern Classics Specialist
Previous Team: Lotto - Belisol
Info: Nicky is a very strong classics rider who has decided to continue his development with a Dutch team and we can only say we are honoured to have him on the team. He will ride the Northern Classics this season as Co-Leader with Vandenbergh.
New Signings:
Domenico Pozzovivo
Nationality: Italy
Age: 31
Rider Type: Climber/Stage Racer
Previous Team: Ag2r La Mondale

Fränk Schleck

Lars Yitting Bak

Age: 33
Rider Type: Roleur/Fighter
Previous Team: Lotto - Bellisol
Info: Lars is a big powerhouse, he will be a bit of a mentor for Kristjan, as well as being an important rider for our sprinters and breakaways, even in the Northern Classics.
Luka Mezgec
Nationality: Slovenia
Age: 25
Rider Type: Sprinter
Previous Team: Argos (Giant)- Shimano
Info: Luka will be the teams main sprinter this season, after riding in support of other riders last season. He is a strong rider who will develop in the future and we believe his sprinting talent will help the team a lot in maintaining a high position in the CT standings.
Giovanni Visconti
Nationality: Italy
Age: 30
Rider Type: Climber/Puncheur
Previous Team: Movistar
Info: Visconti is a super domestique for Pozzovivo and maybe Schleck on in all there races next season and he will be an integral part to any grand tour campaign.
Luca Paolini
Nationality: Italy
Age: 36
Rider Type: Fighter/Roleur/Northern Classics Specialist
Info: Luca will ride as a free agent or super domestique in cobbled races and in support of sprinters or on the attack in flat races, he will bring strength and experience to the team.

Just had my first look at your team. You've really made some great signings. A bit on the old side, but you should challenge for promotion this season

We have officially been given a wildcard to participate in le Tour de France. Competing in this race is very important to the team and I have begun preparing for the race, which takes place in July, later this season. If any EPIC riders want to be considered for the event, they must contact me. As for you application Nicky, we will accept based on your performance in the early season, if you get accepted you will be a domestique but be allowed to go for the win on the cobbles.
