Nice report, tenth for Gonzales Salas is better than I thought.
He should be able to improve on that next year.

Nice couple of races. Those were two good performances by the portuguese riders, can't complain.
Great reports as well. Keep'em comin'

Got Keizer in the winning Netherlands team, so that was awesome. Yatsevich getting 4th was unexpected aswell.
Great reports so far.

Solid riding from Viennet, maybe I should ask CrueTrue nicely if there's any chance he can continue next season aswell in a Norwegian team. Congratulations to Levi4life, I suspect Eastman is going to be an even better stage racer next season.
And that was another great report!

I think I spent something like 1.8 million on him last season. I'm planning on doing something similar next season.

Wow, Sütterlin really surprised me big time here, Silver is amazing!
Signing and then developing competitive riders from the young generation right from the start was my big goal in our first transfer season, and a medal in the U23 WC is exactly what defines competitive for me.

+ 1 (replace Sütterlin with Durbridge and silver with bronze ...)

Not bad from Silvan Dillier. I think I'm gonna dump money on him once he's fully developed.

I wouldnt advise people to spend too long on creating a radar just yet. Not before you see what the new riders are like. And theres going to be quite a lot of them

My teams medal ranking is just at the moment a silver medal as Manuel Lloret was at the TTT team and I haven't any U23 rider so..
I guess that will be the only medal for Bianchi at the WC as I would have to hope a lot that Rabon or Ciolek could get into the Top 3 at the Elite Road Race which they won't be able to pull off.

Must admit I thought Phinney had nailed the Gold medal with another early start. But Rogers' ride was just huge, congratulations to fenian!
Also nice to see our big Swede get the better of Ignatiev once again.
And the reports of these Championships are just remarkable, thanks again Smowz.

Didn't see that one coming.
And mediocre results for the JW riders.

Spain > Netherlands today
Also, given how weak Plaza was, I'm now claiming he sabotaged the Spanish TTT effort.

Great report once again and a huge surprise for the win. I thought that Cancellara was a sure bet!

Well there is one positive thing. Coppel's wage will go down even more.

Belgium, what a shocker
19th is about as good as could be hoped for I guess.
