Same. Stauff is one of my favourite riders as well.

Good signings again from MTN.
Sbaragli seems very talented. Third at the U23 Ronde this year.

He really just does Mountain bikes for them, but he might ride if they start doing mountain stages I guess.

Hondo -> Radioshack. The team wasn't old enough yet apparently.

He's only 38 so he must've been signed for the development team, right?

Is he a junior in the way of Horner and Zubeldia? Oh and that great young talent in Voigt. Great list of up and coming talent when you add Hondo into the mix

I would like to know the average age of Radioshack.

Barloworld were at the tour, NetApp were at the Giro, if they have the money they will get the races.
The question is whether they can do it with African riders?

Van Rensburg kinda looks like a young Hunter if we think about it. |

We have a lot of talent in South Africa's junior ranks. The problem is the lack of infrastructure, a poor governing body and a poor racing quality for the pros(>23years). As soon as our riders get a bit of European exposure great things can be done. Look at Teklahaimanot, Impey, van Rensburg, etc

He looks potentially better than Hunter, Venter, Van Zyl, Meintjies also look like they have potential. There is a big step up to the Pro Tour races though, so it will be interesting to see how they go next year.

I reckon Nico Eeckhout would be a nice addition to their cobbles team, but he might be a little too young for their liking. |

I guess they´ll sign Bäckstedt, too. He´s only 37 and riding for a development team atm.

I think it is finally time Mancebo made the transition to the European peloton. He is really ready for it at age 36

Not seen this one mentioned in all the MTN-Qubeka news, but Cyclingfever say they've also signed Algerian sprinter Youcef Reguigui |

According to @Biarnes72 (twitter) Matteo Carrara is leaving Vacansoleil, who he's joining is yet to be confirmed, an Italian team would be the obvious guess but who knows. |
