Good luck. Love the presentation, and interesting team to follow.
Great to hear people like my "buttons"/ banners.
In truth I think I just gave Alakagom the psd, told him the font to download and included a few pics to have in the background, so he did a good job on them as well.

Geez, you really aren't one of the very patient people, are you?  He hasn't even filled all of his reserved posts, so I guess for the racing to start, you'll have to wait a couple of days

Pellizotti2 Thank you Glad to be back too
Ian Butler Thanks mate
HaRe Thank you
Colnago I will definitely need some, thanks
valverde321 Thanks, glad you liked it And again thanks for the psd for the buttons, they look amazing. Glad I took up the challenge off finishing them, as they look brilliant
jseadog1 Thank you
Avin Wargunnson Yeah, I hope so. LPN isn't the strongest rider out there, but he shuld get few nice results Not the Contador - level results, but some good ones definitely
ricotero_uy Thank you very much Hope I can deliver good story then
SweatyViking Well, you can guess I will be waiting till official release of the Daily DB to start this one After that I will finish my reserved posts i.e. finances, news etc. It shouldn't take too long though. Hopefully the first report will be tomorrow
And again thank you for the awesome response

Here you can see our 5 goals given to us. They are not necessarily the most important goals of the season, but the sponsor wants them done well. Those 5 goals present our goals in the first 3 months of our racing calendar.
 Win Omloop Het Nieuwsblad
 Win Strade Bianche
 Stage Win(s) Paris - Nice
Stage Win(s) Tirreno - Adriatico
Top 10 Milano - Sanremo
Here you can see our goals for this season. Some of them are quite challenging to get, but all of them with bit of luck are possible to complete. So our goal is to reach 80% of those goals, should be a nice challenge. We also have our monthly personal goals as a team, but they will be announced in monthly reviews.
Top 3 Ronde van Vlaanderen
Top 3 Paris - Roubaix
 Top 5 Amstel Gold Race
Stage Win(s) Giro'd Italia
Poins Jersey // Tour de France
| Days | Country | Category | Race | Stages | | 19/1 - 24/1 |  | UWT | Tour Down Under | 6 | | 23/1 - 29/1 |  | 2.1 | Tour de San Luis | 7 |
Top 5 in GC
Tour Down Under is our first race of the season, and quite important for our team. Giving many points in the WT rankings, and knowing we will struggle in later races without too many leaders in our team - it's key to grab some key points here. Nick Nuyens heads the team, and will be both our GC leader and sprinter here. It will be also a nice preparation race ahead of the classics.
Stage Win
Top 5 in GC
Tour de San Luis is another race that is gaining reputation fast with each edition. The Tour will be highlighted by the presence of our two Argentinean brothers - JJ and LL Heado ! We hope to win at least one stage win with JJ Haedo in his home tour. We'll be hoping to bring a climber to the race with intention of scoring a Top 5 in the GC too.
3 new coaches have been added to the team. We hope they'll help our riders develop through the season !
We've also hired Javier Duch, a scout. We've already send him to scout few promising riders in the Limburg !
Our Season Goals Section + Finances Sections have been updated too in 1st part. Few more things to update later tonight, and we can begin the racing
N.B. I don't use training camps - it's just here for story reasons

wow I love it. Your idea of taking to the team Alberto remaining possibilities to you, but it certainly gives a lot more excitement to the story.
The choice of team is excellent, and the signing of Nordhaug seems a complete success.
Good luck, I support.

Good call about getting points in Down Under to anticipate. Get in, win that thing and pull out before they know what hit 'em |

The goals are pretty tough. But not impossible. Looking forward for the season in especially what Nuyens, Nordhaugg and Sörensen can show. |

Looks awesome!
I love the pictures you used, and the goals looks pretty hard to be honest.
