Hello, My name is Tom Vemeulen, I am from Flanders and I was born for the cobbles, but an injury stopped my career, however, I couldn't leave cycling and I managed small teams, but when this offer came through, I can't say I wasn't excited.
Hopefully I can work well with this team, hopefully we will win some great races.
GOOD LUCK GUYS!!!!

Our team is strong, especially with Tomas De Gendt and our strong classics team, but in 2014, we will be looking for some good sprinters, and better climbers, to get some good results.
Here is our shirt for the 2013 season

Can I please ask all the custom riders to post here, and could I get a post detailing current transfers, because I wish to continue/honour deals. Thanks

From the previous thread:
Hi all,
I'm Pieter de Vries, Vacansoleil's latest signing. For now I'm still under contract with Lotto-Belisol, but decided to leave the team and join a team from my own country. After a disappointing season so far I had already expected to go down a division, but luckily I did manage to find Vacansoleil, or actually they found me. I'm glad I've been offered this opportunity and I'll show what I can next season. I won't mind being a rouleur, as I feel it suits me very well, although I wouldn't mind going on the attack once or twice.
Pieter de Vries

With the change of management I hope that my deal for next year remains as I wish to fulfill my potential on the cobbles with this team for the future.

You may want to correct the thread's name: it should be Vacansoleil instead of Vaconsolei

@Ollfardh
Thanks
@Sgdanny
Thanks a lot, as well.
@Selwink
Welcome to the team next season, your contract will be honoured.
(Also I totally didn't mean to spell vaconsoleil wrong, not a good start. )
@Nacho
Good Luck, I will honour all signed contracts, so you're on the team.

Transfers:
Only leaving for a really good offer:
Flecha, Juan Antonio
Hoogerland, Johnny
Westra, Lieuwe
Pretty Likely to stay, but all offers will be considered:
Feillu, Romain
Marczynski, Tomasz
De Gendt, Thomas
Markus, Barry
Poels, Wout
Rujano , José Humberto
I'll probably keep but happy to have offers:
Boeckmans, Kris
Bole, Grega
Leukemans, Bjorn
Veuchelen, Frederik
Up for transfer, all offers thoroughly considered:
Keizer, Martijn
Kreder, Wesley
Lagutin, Sergey
Lammertink, Maurits
Ligthart, Pim
Marcato, Marco
Ruijgh, Rob
Valls, Rafael
Van Hummel , Kenny
Van Poppel, Danny
Van Poppel, Boy
Leaving the team, almost indefinitely:
Lindeman, Bert Jan
Mol, Wauter
Selvaggi, Mirko
Wauters, Willem
We have serious intentions of trading the Van Hummel trio for one of our transfer targets, such as a strong sprinter or climber.
Our Transfer Targets:
The only name that will be disclosed currently is Ivan Santomorita, he will be our leading transfer target this season.
We are also looking for:
A strong sprinter: maybe in transfer for a couple of our sprinters.
A strong climber: For any races without De Gendt. Santamorita could fill this role.
Some northern classics domestiques: Preferably young, to support Flecha.
Some sort of puncheur: Just someone who can support us in the Ardennes and Autumn classics.
Looking forward to the season and any offers.
