Two newcomers confirmed!
Coldfire Professional Cycling is very happy today to present you the newest additions to our talent pool: Mattia Cattaneo (Italy) and Jonathan Monsalve (Venezuela) are the names that will hopefully shake up the peloton in the coming years. Both are strong climbers but both also still have a lot to learn t unlock their full potential. We are curious on how they will develop. |

A few annotations:
Spoiler
- I really want to get to racing, so I'm going to post the signings a bit faster, maybe twice a day.
- Please keep in mind that my team won't be as "overpowered" as some of you may think, I wouldn't like that myself.
I use an older DB, for example Kangert doesn't start with a 77 overall, but with a 69.

Coldfire signs third and last leader!
Dear fans and followers,
today we are very proud to present you our third leader for the 2014 season: Roman Kreuziger! The Czech is a very versatile rider who can do well in both stage races and classics. He leaves Tinkoff-Saxo after doubting his value for that team.
Silas Coldfire: “We were lucky that Roman was a bit unhappy at Tinkoff, during the last season he was forced to step down not only to Contador but also to Roche or Breschel, which made him feel that his position was questioned. So that was our chance to explain our concept and idea to him and we are glad to have convinced him to join us. We are expecting a lot from him.” |

Very strong for a PCT team, you will dominate the division! Not saying you should change just saying that if you don't win 75% of your races it will be a failed season

nah, 75% sounds a bit too much. I haven't played a lot of 3D racing yet, so I'm lacking experience. In CT my team may be the strongest (at least in theory ) but in WT it will be somewhere in the middle I think.
I just hope you all don't see me as someone who can't accept losing, because that's totally wrong.
By the way, almost everybody will only have a 1-year-contract, with a few exceptions of course.

More domestic power!
Today, Coldfire Professional Cycling announced the signings of two German power riders: Patrick Gretsch and Paul Voss are joining us on our quest for promotion.
Coldfire: “Both are perfect additions to our roster because both are known to be very powerful riders that can provide a lot of energy for the team. Moreover, they are very motivated and happy to be on a domestic team. They are well aware of the chance to bring a German team back into the World Tour.”

Thanks guys! And onward we go:
More Luxembourg power!
After the Schlecks, Team Coldfire was once again active in Luxembourg, bringing in Laurent Didier and Bob Jungels from RadioShack – Leopard. Didier is known to be an all-rounder who specializes in climbing, while Jungels is a young talent that has already shown he might develop to become a time-trial or classics expert.
Silas Coldfire: “We are happy to be able to support Bob Jungels in finding out what he will specialize in, while Laurent Didier might just give us the edge in some steep climbs and other tough places. I am really glad to welcome them both to Team Coldfire.” |

The team is starting to take shape now. It looks as if you are certainly not looking to win sprints |

Team Coldfire adds Sørensen
Chris Anker Sørensen is the 18th rider to be added to Coldfire Professional Cycling. This was confirmed earlier today by the team management.
Coldfire: “Sørensen is a rider who we were after for quite some time, and it took us until today to agree on all details. He is one of the riders I wanted the most, because he has already done some years of racing with all our leaders, and he is known for that he can be called up for any race of the year and he will give it his all. Now that his move is complete, I am very optimistic that the rest of the team will shape up quickly.”
Spoiler @Matthew - indeed I won't too much
