Japanese road champ Yukihiro Doi leaves Argos-Shimano to join Japanese continental Team UKYO.
Guillaume Boivin is rumoured to be joining Bretagne-Séche whilst Spidertech are out of cycling for the year. Great signing if that comes to fruition. |

Steele Von Hoff signs with Garmin for 2 years after riding as a stagiere with them during 2011 - early 2012.
He has had a much better season with Chipotle than I thought he would have. Great to see him stepping up to the top. He will get plenty of opportunities to be the lead sprinter at Garmin.
I hope he does, well he's back with his old Genesy's buddy Haas now.

Emma Pooley has decided not to retire in 2013, and has joined Bigla instead.

Its a shame that she wont be competing in the World Cup and Giro Donne, but she will help with the development of the young riders on the team.

Why would they do that? He hasn't won a race since 2008 and nothing higher than .1 since 2007.

Well, if you ask me, Liquigas made the biggest mistake in letting Nibali go, what they're doing now is just... meh |

They didn't have much of a choice. Astana offered him a contract Liquigas could never afford.
