Well you almost outbid us on Ben Nasser as one more increase would have sent us over the edge. I guess things worked out for you anyway with Betancourt scoring more than the Tunisian. Miguel was the unlucky one who got neither, and it was those points that meant we stayed up and you stayed out of the relegation battle so I think they were good buys even if they were at high prices.
Congrats on a good season by the way. We will hopefully be battling with you next season in the top half of the division.
To be honest I'm terrified with the renewals... plans A to Z depend on Carlos demands... I will have to start planning with Greek alphabet just in case xD
Last off-season I took a really aggressive tactic on the bids of Ben Nasser and Carlos and I feel bad for Miguel really Like some of the guys that finished in relegation positions do not deserve that...
Now one recap more with the rest of the good results with Lejman, Gonzalo, Nieve and even Bostner and we will be done of walls for a time.
Notes:
A good breakaway move in the queen stage made Gonzalo arrive with some of the best at the end of the stage. On the rest of the Tour just hanged with the favourites to hold a top 10 position.
Notes:
Again Gonzalo performed as an authenitc Houdini beeing in the BA in two consecutive days but not having the luck to win the stage and scoring a back two back 2nd places. Also he finished 8th at the General clasification and 4th at the Mountain.
Notes:
Again Gonzalo and a BA. He placed himself with the brave in the last and definitive stage and he scored in all the 4 ports before the final one gaining the grimpeur jersey.
Notes:
Betancourt was the real star of this tour winning it but still the team performed admirably. Didier (23), Lejman (31) and the others were also heroes this time.
Notes:
Lejman domination. 2 of the 4 stages won by him, as well as all the jerseys but the young one. And all this with a small TT (2km) on the first stage were he was 97 out of 108!
Notes:
We got to Portugal with great expectations from Betancourt. We wanted him to pursue the leader jersey and some stages at the early stages of the race. The result wasn't optimal but at the end Betancourt could slip on a BA and gain the youth jersey and Nieve was consistent over all the tour scoring a more than acceptable 7th place in the Volta.
Notes:
Again Lejman showed a really good form of the team at the end of the season. Finally he performed as expected in a classic an win this race with class. Nice fight with Mendes that almost stole the race from the combative pole.

Polish National Championship RR
1st Overall - Kamil Gradek
Notes:
One of our most combative rider won the championship with clever move placing himself in the BA. Piotr Mazur, he's BA companion, he didn't have enought gas at the end of the race to compete with Kamil at the sprint.
