Majka is number 4!
For sponsors how about Skoda and Orlen? Orlen are apparently one of the biggest companies in Europe, it's based in Poland. Skoda obviously make cars. I really need some Polish, Czech, Slovakian or Slovenian help on this though.
Well, when you have all the details, PM me, and i'll make it and send you it via PM, then you can keep the jersey a surprise

I like the sponsors, Skoda - Orlen . Sounds nice I think.

I'm not including the Baltic nations (EST, LAT, LTU) but you can pick ONE of the Slovenians if you want. |

Oh sorry. Didn't read that we could only have one. I was just throwing out suggestions.
Spoiler Nechita of Romania might be alright, if you still need suggestions at the end.
But I'll choose Hocevar.

No problem. There will be more riders that I will pick later and I will take into account your suggestions but I didn't want to have 63 names thrown at me, so that's why I just want one name from each person.
Hocevar's in.
Spoiler I hope he's got some decent potential, cos he looks a bit rubbish |

I think he grows to a decent domestique, but I really like his name

As good a reason as any to sign a rider I suppose. In much the same way that Swift is obviously the quickest sprinter in the world because his name says so. |

I like the idea, should be cool story. Actually Czech Republic and Slovakia are not in Eastern europe, but who cares
I was thinking about König, but he is in now, so i would go with Juraj Sagan for example.
And Skoda-Oren sounds really good, or you can throw one of the czech beer companies into play (Budvar, Pilsner Urquell)

J. Sagan is in. 2 more domestiques needed.
Good to see someone from that area of the world commenting, whether it's Eastern Europe or not I think that is a good idea with the beer companies, but only as a minor sponsor, obviously. To be honest, I think I've kind of decided on those 2 as the co-sponsors. |

Hey there.
First of all it is a nice idea to creat a story about eastern rider.
Second I wanted to provide a link to a website that has all the countries considered Eastern European, hope it helps.
https://goeasteuro...Europe.htm
Finally I would like you to sign Oleg Chuzda from Caja Rural, if I am not mistaken his average is 69.
Best of luck for your story. |

Chuzhda and Szeghalmi are in. No more riders for now, part 2 will be up in a minute.
ps. thanks for that link, looks like I got it right but I just decided not to include Russia (because of Katusha) or the Baltic states (don't really know why!). |

Part 2 - Team Leaders and Protected Riders
We have 8 domestiques (I will pick some of my own later). They are:
Pliuschin (MOL)
Marzcynski (POL)
Konig (CZE)
Majka (POL)
Hocevar (SLO)
J. Sagan (SVK)
O. Chuzhda (UKR)
Szeghalmi (HUN)
Now we need the big boys. Below are five groups of riders. Keeping it simple, pick two from each. Easy.
Group 1
Peter Velits (SVK)
Simon Spilak (SLO)
Vasil Kiriyienka (BLR)
Kanstantin Siutsou (BLR)
Group 2
Przemyslaw Niemiec (POL)
Sylwester Szymd (POL)
Robert Kiserlovski (CRO)
Tadej Valjavec (SLO)
Group 3
Yauheni Hutarovich (BLR)
Borut Bozic (SLO)
Kristzof Szczawinski (POL)
Alexandre Usov (BLR)
Group 4
Peter Sagan (SVK)
Grega Bole (SLO)
Jure Kocjan (SLO)
Mikhaylo Khalilov (UKR)
Group 5
Andriy Grivko (UKR)
Maciej Bodnar (POL)
Zdenek Stybar (CZE)
Frantisek Rabon (CZE)
Alexander Kuschynski (BLR)
Make the reply simple, example:
1-Spilak, Siutsou
2-Niemiec, Szmyd
3-Hutarovich, Bozic etc. |
