Seems like renewals went well for you, you've got a decent backbone now to build off and with the right riders brought in during transfers it could be a deadly team.

First Signings of 2016!!!
Tarik Chaoufi - XP - MAX - Wage - 50,000
| 73 | 62 | 75 | 62 | 76 | 65 | 71 | 59 | 61 | 58 | 74 | 59 | 62 |
Tarik has been riding in the Kenya Airways Cycling team for the past season and as the move on with racing in the PT he thought it was time for him to move on. He now comes back to the Continental Tour to ride with us and help us go for glory and gain promotion in the season ahead.
Clovis Kamzong - XP - MAX - Wage - 50,000
| 70 | 73 | 72 | 67 | 70 | 69 | 74 | 65 | 65 | 68 | 72 | 65 | 67 |
Kamzong also comes to us from the Kenya Airways Cycling team. He is the current TT national champion of his country which is a great achievement for himself and the team as he will get to wear his national colours with our sponsors on it! We are looking forward to seeing what he can bring to the team this season!
Lotto Petrus - XP - MAX - Wage - 50,000
| 68 | 54 | 69 | 74 | 70 | 68 | 66 | 54 | 63 | 65 | 74 | 64 | 74 |
Petrus once again comes from the Kenya Airways Cycling team and is the current national TT champion for his country. He is also the kind of TT rider that can do some damage in the CT level which we are really looking forward to seeing! He can bring a lot to the time in the likes of TT wins as well as helping with leadouts and just being a general workhorse.

Signing Continue!! - New Leaders!!
Steele Von Hoff - XP - MAX - Wage - 90,000
| 71 | 62 | 66 | 65 | 71 | 74 | 77 | 61 | 79 | 77 | 65 | 69 | 65 |
Steele Von Hoff is an Aussie sprint star that has spent the last little while on the Jayco'z Cycling Project. With Jayco'z now moving into the Pro Tour and wanting to let Von Hoff move on we thought it was a great opportunity for us to jump in and grab one of our main goals while we had that chance. Spending 360k on Von Hoff was a good deal for us as we now have a sprinter that can contest in the sprints with all the top Continental Tour sprinters!
Rick Flens - XP - MAX - Wage - 50,000
| 71 | 52 | 62 | 77 | 67 | 69 | 68 | 65 | 57 | 64 | 67 | 69 | 77 |
Rick Flens is another fantastic rider that has spent a little bit of time in the Pro Tour with the RBC Cycling Team. He is a top Time Trialist and will be fantastic in most Continental Tour TT races/stages. We are hoping to see many TT wins come from Flens this season. He is going to be a huge help in getting us promoted next season!

Well, to be fair: Oz already moved to ProTour one year ago 
Von Hoff is a definite upgrade to what you used to call your main sprinters! He should go well on this level.

Narankhuu Baterdene - XP - 1.0 - POT - 4 - Wage - 50,000
| 67 | 58 | 60 | 59 | 67 | 69 | 71 | 62 | 69 | 70 | 59 | 65 | 64 |
This 21 year old Mongolian rider is a born sprinter. He has a lot of potential as a cyclist and in a few years could be battling with the top sprinters in his division! We are hoping to be able to train him up to his full potential and help bring Mongolian cycling to the top!
Timothy Roe - Loaned to Jayco'z Cycling Project
Timothy Roe has gone on loan to Jayco'z Cycling Project to grow to his full potential. He is currently on the XP of 4.80 and this year we have been promised by Jayco'z that he will be maxed. This is great for us as a team because he can bring his talent back next year and compete at the top of the CT division in the stage races (if we stay in the CT). We are looking forward to seeing what Tim Roe can do at Jayco'z this season!

Flens actually is a teriffic signing - especially with that wage. I'd be expecting a nice haul of points from him this season

The Future of Cycling - Young Riders Join!
Nicholas Schultz - XP - 1.0 - POT - 6 - Wage - 95,000
| 67 | 67 | 68 | 62 | 70 | 75 | 67 | 53 | 58 | 65 | 62 | 62 | 62 |
Nicholas Schultz is a 22 year old Australian Climber who has the potential to be one of the best climbers in the peloton over the next few years! We will be hoping to keep Schultz for the next few seasons so that we can see him grow from start to finish! He will be a great rider very shortly!
Taylor Gunman - XP - 4.0 - POT - 4 - Wage - 95,000
| 71 | 64 | 73 | 70 | 69 | 67 | 69 | 51 | 70 | 74 | 73 | 68 | 77 |
Gunman is a Kiwi that is quite good at a lot of different areas. A strong hill climber with good acceleration, a good rider against the clock and even quite good in the sprints! Gunman is going to be a great rider when it comes to helping out the team this year and may even take a couple of wins in the prologues and hill races.
Amadou Bakari - XP - 4.51 - POT - 2 - Wage - 85,000
| 58 | 53 | 54 | 54 | 58 | 56 | 59 | 81 | 61 | 60 | 58 | 59 | 54 |
Amadou Bakari is a former Road Race National Champion. He has fantastic cobble stats that can top the Continental Division! The only problem is he doesn't have great backing stats. Will that stop him or can he still beat out the other top cobblers in the CT divison?

It is with great honour that I now present to you the 19 riders that will ride in the Blue and White of Fox Sports - BikeNZ Cycling this season! All of these riders are looking to show the team that we spent our money well. We have a good all round focusing mainly on Sprinting and against the clock. Without further ado, I present to you the 2016 Fox Sports - BikeNZ Cycling Team!
One rider has been loaned out to Jayco'z Cycling Team, that is Timothy Roe. We wish him the best over the next year and can't wait for him to rejoin the team next year!
