They're proper sh*t is why. Best results were at the Tour du Cameroon, yes that presitgious race... Their top 2015 contracted rider atm is Luis Lemus. So yeah it's a crap team equal with Ayandeh Continental Team on the PCS ranking...
To give it a comparision, it would be like Wiggins joining Velosure-Giordana next season (who are higher ranked than Airgas btw).

It does sound like it's true, though:

Also, Moritz Backofen joins Stölting, they presented him as a climbing talent. Backofen means baking oven, btw. |

Not much news today, all mostly Lampre related.
- Duarte leaves Colombia. From all the rumours, it looks he's heading for Lampre.
- Also rumours in Portugese papers that Rui Costa's brother, Mario could be joining Lampre, best result this year was 39th in Algarve.

Ahh..Lampre....
Anyhow, you can't accuse Lampre of not being diverse this season:

Their Taiwanese signed rider won the RR, so that's another National Jersey that will be cool though  Although doubtful if we'll ever see it in a race.

After leaving BMC, Martin Kohler moves to Drapac. Tidy signing there.
( That also means only two founding riders remain at BMC since their launch in 2008, Bookwalter and Wyss)

Larry Warbasse signs for IAM. Lodewyck extends with BMC, quite lucky considering how much he raced this year... this more or less completes the BMC team for 2015.
In: https://prntscr.co...
Out: https://prntscr.co... (plus Evans after TdU and his classic making it a 27 rider rooster with Loic Vliegen joining from July)
Side note, Bouhanni will be the best paid French rider in the peleton at Cofidis next year, paid somewhere between 1-1.5million per year
P.S. Steegmans to Trek. 27 riders, the team is completed.

Steegmans to Trek 
I didn't expect him to find a team next year, let alone a WT team!
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Trek needed an oldie after letting Voigt and Hondo retire
Although I think it's a shrewd purchase. More help for Cance in classics plus should be of great help to the younger sprinters mostly Danny. Statistically Steegmans had his best season this year since 2010 So there is some riding left in him yet!

Horner confirms his move to Airgas-Safeway... I feel bad for Airgas having to pay the walking EPO chemical. I also feel bad for Horner that no-one else would take him.

I don't. It's so obvious how and for what purpose he was so good at the Vuelta in 2013. I found it hilarious that he barely found a satisfying contract last year and now he has to go to a team that I didn't even know existed until a few minutes ago.

You can also add Greame Brown to the list of Drapac signings https://www.cyclingnews.com/news/brown...015-roster
They also parted ways with Henk Vogles as sports director, in my opinion this is a good move with Henk spending far to much time on TV and not doing what he was being paid for.

Caleb Fairly joins Giant-Alpecin. Decent signing, solid domestique for Barguil.

If Barguil gets domestiques for his goals...maybe in a Grand Tour?
