Well this high biddings make it unpossible to buy riders as a small team.
Look Bikex paid 1650 for Nibali, My total budget was 1800 were I had to buy 10 riders for. So you guys make it pretty impossible to sign a leader
really dissapointed
Why? No one wants to see Nibali tearing up CT teams from January till October.

Oh I forgot to say something. As Martial turned inactive I'll filled his team with French riders after the biding. The team has 8 riders now, the other half will follow after round 2.2. |

Porte for 690 .... huminah huminah huminah huminah .. good god!
.. Yes, I am happy with that! (Especially if you see how much the better
climbers ahead of him are going for.)
Expecting to do quite a few transfers in the next few days, so will need to update the team thread.

Also, whenever anyone updates their post in the team thread, I suggest they just delete the old post and post again, so we can know when some new info is up.
Please don't delete your team posts that are linked in post#2. Just make new posts and link them in your first post or write here that you updated your post. |

Yeah, Prorace with some amazing additions. Very good transfer period for you there.

I'm really really happy with the second round of this (got 5/6, only missed Trentin) but now I've got Moser, Colbrelli and Appollonio as leaders. Bit disappointed with round 1, though, should have been more aggressive
Could I know when we can bid again on the FA?

855 for Talansky as well as over 1000 on Terpstra. I think it's safe to say somebody's high as a kite.
got them both

This plan only worked for TMM because he had surprisingly good contributions from Voeckler and especially Gavazzi. Terpstra to me doesn't seem like a great investment but it may work for you, not many cobble RD's.
I have over 2000 and 5 riders to sign so this should be interesting. Also can't wait to see if any free agents are remaining that are worth getting.

So there are already 2 teams that had to withdraw bids, because of their budget situation. That of course sucks for the selling team. So I have decided now, If the selling team doesn't get rid of their riders because of that, the teams that made the bids will have to pay a little fine to the selling team. I'll decide about how high that fine is in the individual cases. |

I agree, high bidding while you have no budget should be punished. It'll only cause problems later.
I do think withdrawing bids for other reasons should not be allowed, people should think before they act.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

Have to say I agree, though of course this has to do with me being on the selling end in these deals. I suppose the MG method could be applied, but in the end, it's up to Bikex.
