Great signigins *full dot, nothing to add* .
Will you start in Conti or replace a team from PT ? Your team is definitely strong for PT, it would add more challenge to story. |

The team grows and grows, we are proud to present another great rider, who will join us. After Milram had to close his doors, he had just two options, Quick Step, with Boonen, Chichi and Steegmans and SAP, with Greipel as the only high class sprinter in the team. Although his young age, he has made quite good results. He was the German Road champion in 2005. He has won 3 stages at the Deutschland Tour and one stage at the Vuelta a Espana.
We think he's a good addition to André Greipel, because of his good hill-skills. In our opinion the two leading german Sprinters can race in the same team.
We are proud to present Gerald Ciolek

I'm pleased that you agree with the choice of my riders. At first I thought, that Ciolek and Greipel in one team wouldn't be a good idea, but as I wrote I think that they are a good addition to another and there will be no new clinch like Greipel vs Cav. Ciolek will play a better role in our team then in the Quick Steps team. Or what do you think? |

Thanks, its nice to get a positiv feedback, I think it no easy to build up a realistic team, thats not to strong and hopefully I've not weaken the other teams like HTC too much.
I think I will replace Astana in the PT, because I don't like this team, maybe Kreuziger (one of my favourite riders), could come to our team!

We now have big news, after getting the licence from Astana, Dietmar Hopp decided to increase our budget, so that we could enforce our team for the ProTour. |

After Astana lost his licence two of there new big names could leave because they had just a contract for the protour.
We proud that they will join our squad.
Here are Frederik Kessiakoff
The swedish former Mountbikerider is a strong rider for the hillclassics, he can make good results in this races.
Also Vattenfall is very pleased that we could have a swedish rider in our team.
and
The second big name who will leave Astana is
Roman Kreuziger
The Czech Junior World Champion from 2004 and winner of 2008s Tour de Suisse and 2009s Tour de Romandie is one of the upcoming stageracers Now we have a reale strong young stageracessquad. |

Now I understand why Astana had to leave ProTour
Was very surprised that a strong team around Kreuziger and Davis lost their license.
But now great signings. |

Great squad with Spilak, Greipel, Ciolek, Martin and Kreuziger, great domestiques as well. If slightly overpowered *joking* |

With such a team you can win every race you start in, let's see how it goes. Maybe a bit to much high rated riders?

@ Tombola: Yeah you could be right an the team has to much high rated riders... but I don't think that they will win everything... it's a team with that you can make good results.... We have a lot of top 10 riders, but I think just Ciolek an Greipel are on the top in the speciality. I would say the team is built up just like the philosophy of Dietmar Hopp... good young riders, who will improve... the next step for the team will be to built up a team around young scouted riders... so maybe there will be no big transfers in futur....
Sorry forgot Tony Martin!
