Nominating:
Reis | Rafael | Prio - Porto | | Coutinho | Lionel | Prio - Porto | | Ferreira | Ricardo | Prio - Porto |
I'm not sure there is space for them in other teams, but whoever is interested has my approval for registering them as team members. Reis is a fine stage racer, Coutinho a good sprinter and Ferreira is a cobbler making him a valuable rider in the flat terrain.

- Putt could fit in with Amex or Boeing
Would take Putt on-board (get it!) and take us up to 9 riders

@Oleg I could fit in Sakalou and Sulimov at Vesuvio, since I already signed a couple of Eastern European Stagiares solely to boost my Avenir squad. Foliforov will be able to race alongside his Ameriabank teammates.

A couple of nationality based observations:
- In-n-Out could split their riders 3 ways to Festina, Mobil and Oz as all fit the general nationality of those teams.
- Putt could fit in with Amex or Boeing
- M.Koch could fit in with Vontobel
- Assuming Prio-Porto nominate their 3 when Gustavovskiy is next online, they could form an Iberian team with the CSC 3 plus Iturria
- If Aker and Risa nominate (ember is away for a week atm, tsmoha has hinted of dicussions with tastasol) and their Aussies head to Oz, then the Norwegians could link up with Kragh Anderson.
But in general there are a number of teams where a single rider can easily slot in, and the teams with 3/4/5 at the moment could consider joining together to make a bigger team.
A few minutes later:

Confirmed. If Putt and Oram would like to join our team, they're more than welcome.

I have four riders so iI'd like to combine with another team if that's possible:
Maxime La Lavandier - French
Dylan Teuns - Belgium
Irakli Bablidze - Georgian
Jörgen Matt - Estonian

I don't have room for a combination of 4 riders, but if you want to I would be happy to take Maxime La Lavandier. His brother is already in the team, so in those terms it could make sense... Obviously you should try to merge with another manager first, though.

I'd be interested in merging. Since you already have two Eastern Europeans I think the two teams should form a somewhat decent merge. Since you have a majority, it'd make most sense to race in the Bouygues kit.

There have now been 185 riders nominated. I am going to reserve 4 spaces for the Aker-MOT riders as ember has been one of the most active PT managers all season, and it was clear from his last post that he is only away on a short break.
So if there is more than 10 of the remaining 41 riders get nominated then some will have to miss out. Priority will go to those who nominated riders first, unless managers choose to take the XP but opt-out of the race.
It's not a case of squeezing all teams up to 9 riders to make sure everybody fits though, since 24 teams of 9 would be more than the rider limit of 199.

Nutresa nominate our two eliginble riders for L'Avenir:
Quintana Dayer Grupo Nutresa
Campos Roniel Grupo Nutresa Mobil - Aeropostal Ciclismo
Given one is on loan from Mobil, would perhaps make sense to combine with their riders if still not allocated?
Also see other American based tgeams not combined yet, maybe also throw them in here too (Once ?) to make a south/central American combine?
Happy for them to ride anywhere they fit in reality!

Perfect, I'm good with teaming up with our former rivals at Prio.

There are still 1/2 theoretical spots free at Siam Cement, so if you can't fit your rider(s) in somewhere feel free to contact me.
I'll accept any nationality as all the Asians are already gone. At Siam Cement your riders will get their own chances no matter how bad they are as my riders aren't really good either. |

Already tried to contact RBC Management two days ago, but it seems they take a long weekend.
Is it okay to contact Evonik about Michel Koch?

Yeh, in RBC's absence it is fine to ask Evonik about Koch.
