My Thoughts:
With Anderson he didn't really kick on from last year were he managed a win and this year he jus never really had a chance on his own and when he did like in he Tour of Britain he wasn't good enough to make a real result. Next year he will be staying with us and will continue his job as a super domestique hopefully on a cheaper wage then last year.

My Thoughts:
Bellis continued a fine first season for us I can't have any complaints after a good first season getting around the amount of points expected and keeping the team up there in most races, if I had any complaint it's him being very trigger happy on hitting the attack button a bit too soon probably costing himself some wins along the way. For next season I want Bellis to stay he's been great and is at the moment just about getting a nice contract drawn up for next year.

The Canadian Road Race champion as he capped of a fine first season with a good first professional win Alexandor has improved massively in the off season and will be a key part of my plans in the years to come as i hope to see him get better and better as a rider.

My Thoughts:
He is still with us entering our 4th season but Christopher is walking a tightrope as to if he is going to stay or not, another blend season of nothing has seen him improve into a nice all-round punchuer which could see him earn another year with his one and only team so far.

Mitch took a win in his first season at RBC along with becomming a good leadout man for Vanderbiest in particular, Mitch is a valuable asset to the team and I will be happy to have him join us for another year next year to continue his fine work.

Antoine had his first real race season on the team after being loaned out last season to Gazelle, and he impressed with his domestique duties though he is one of the few Canadians on the team under threat of being replaced depeneding on how the amateur season is shaping up.

A very average year for Kristijan though he did get a good result in the Tour of Ukraine it was his only performance of note throughout the entire year with him being very much a passenger in most races, next year Kristijan will be looked to be sold with him hopefully finding a home more suited to his talents.

Results:
None although in terms of the riders with no results he has been the best of the lot a really attacking rider who I feel will make a winning break very soon.
My Thoughts:
One of the riders I feel sorry for this year Alexis had a really great loan year with us but just didn't get a results to show for it for some reason though his 36 points do show he was a constent threat for the KOM competitions even if he didn't win one.

My Thoughts:
Hugo had a good start to the season but tailed of in the middle leading to a string of poor performances and then jumping back for the last race of the season to get a HC Classic top 10 in Japan he will probably be loaned next year or sold so he won't be in an RBC shirt for a bit.

Lane had a really good year for the team being part of many breakaways and rounding that up at the end of the year with a class result in Japan being in the break all day before making a top 20 performance the fact the aussie will improve again this year is great though he may have to leave the team to continue his devlopment

Marc season was really going badly most of the year with barely any ranking points to speak of for most of it untill his ablity on the cobbles finally showed at Wanze - Arenberg with a podium finish on some of the toughest terrain there is, Marc is undecided wheather or not he will be at the team next year though it is likely he will stay through renewels

My Thoughts:
Charles is a rider who basically came in at the start of the season to help with the project and devlop a rider with some potential if not the best in Canada, after Charles has come through his base year with us we are sure this will lead to him becoming a permanent fixture in the pro ranks for years to come.

Christian had a really good year with the team as a National Champion and I actually regret not using him more now then I did throughout the season though this was in aprt to help our youngsters gain more experience, Christian showed his class though in Denmark earning a top 5 in a HC stage race and then bagging his 6 national champions jersey at the end of the year.

The pancake really didn't show the improvement he had last year in any races this year and although he had a stat boosts it's quite apprent he is just sturggling at PCT a transfer down a division could be the answer.

Well well what a season by the vetern canadian powerhouse, I doubt many would expect him to take 2 stage race top 10's throughout the season but his brave attacking and detirmination proved many wrong as he gained two big results for his CV it is 50/50 at the moment though if he will spend next season at RBC.

After last season earning a couple of big results for the team this season was a bit of a letdown for Sebastian, he struggled to really make an impact in any race he enetered rarely even making the break, and for now at least it looks like he will be seeking a transfer to a team were he will have more oppurntunities to ride for himself.

My Thoughts:
Micheal had a nice first season with the team though it saw no major results his lead-out skills were showcased many times throughout the season and in the World Championship Road Race leading out Sam Bewley for a bronze medal, Michael would seem to be staying with us through this transfer window were we hope to come to an agreement for a wage reduction.

My Thoughts:
Romain has had a great year at RBC this season with him taking our first ever stage race win and another two stage wins plus a top 40 in the Overall Rankings, it's hard to argue that Romain underperformed at all. The team is looking into the possiblity of moving him on though this is not a priority to sell him if an offer came up in the teams best intrested he could go.
